Personal Injury in San Diego: What to Do After Your Accident?

There’s nothing you can do to prevent an accident caused by someone else. However, there are steps you can take after your accident to protect yourself going forward. The decisions you make in the immediate aftermath of your accident will have lasting effects on your daily life.

Here are the steps you should take right away after your accident:

1. Document the accident (take photos, get names of witnesses, etc.).
2. File a police report.
3. Seek proper medical treatment.
4. Do not admit fault or wrongdoing.
5. Consult with an accident attorney as soon as possible.

Taking these steps will help you to properly document the accident to use as proof in your case, and it will also show that you took all the right actions on your end to mitigate your injuries – which is critical for the success of any accident claim or personal injury lawsuit.

It’s important that you consult with an attorney before speaking with the insurance carrier. Insurance professionals are trained to manipulate these types of situations to work out in their favor, so it’s vital that you have someone representing your best interests from the start.

As an injury victim, you must take full advantage of all your options. Dealing with insurance companies on your own is the worst thing you can do. You owe it to yourself and your family to call our skilled personal injury lawyers to get receive a FREE case evaluation.

What Does a Personal Injury Claim Include?

Depending on your case, you may be able to recover damages such as:

• Medical bills
• Physical therapy
• Mental health therapy
• Rental and replacement vehicle
• Emotional distress
• Potential PTSD
• Lost wages
