What Happens After a Car Accident?
First, gather your information and contact the police immediately if you feel it’s safe to do so. Your next step is to file your claim with your insurance company. Get a good picture of your injuries ASAP if you have been injured. Even if you’re not hurt in any way, take pictures to document any damage done to your vehicle or property.
How do I get my vehicle fixed?
If you’ve been in an accident and your vehicle needs repair, it can be difficult to figure out how to proceed. Here are some helpful tips for getting your car fixed after it has been damaged by another driver or by some other incident.
Getting the Medical Treatment You Need
If you’ve just been in a car accident, your immediate concern is most likely your well-being and that of your passengers. But you should also be thinking about how to document any injuries so that you can successfully file an insurance claim when it comes time to submit one. First, begin starting as soon as possible; it may cost money out-of-pocket but it will pay off if you’re able to make a successful claim later on.
What happens when two drivers are at fault?
If both drivers are at fault, each driver will be able to make a claim on their own insurance company to cover some or all of their costs. However, if one driver is considered to be much more at fault than another (for example, if one driver was speeding and ran through two red lights), that driver may only be able to make a partial claim, or none at all.
How Do I Know If I Have A Case?
An easy way to get started is to find local attorneys who handle personal injury cases. The first place to look is your state bar association website. These sites have comprehensive lists of lawyers in your area, as well as ratings and reviews posted by people who’ve used their services. It may also be worth seeking recommendations from family and friends. When it comes time to start researching law firms, however, you should be prepared with specific questions: Do they take these types of cases? What kind of experience do they have?
What if you don’t have health insurance?
If you get into an accident and can’t pay for your medical bills on your own, help is available. If you don’t have health insurance, one option is to file a claim with your auto insurer.
