Protecting Your Health and Your Claim
While your car accident claim will be unique to the accident involved, there are several basic steps that you can take to help protect both your health and your car accident claim, including:
- Pull off the road (or as far out of the path of traffic as possible – if you are not able to get off the road)
- Call 911
- If anyone at the scene is injured, offer whatever help you can
- Accept medical care at the scene if it is offered – or seek medical attention as soon after the accident as possible
- Keep your comments to yourself at the scene (excited utterances can come back to haunt your car accident claim)
- Answer any questions poised to you by the police truthfully and succinctly
- Gather whatever evidence you can, including photos and videos of the cars involved, eyewitness testimonies (and contact information), and anything else you consider relevant
- Consult with an experienced car accident lawyer as soon after the accident as possible
- Follow your doctor’s orders carefully It’s the right thing to do for your health and for your car accident claim)
Even if you don’t think you were seriously injured in the accident, it’s important to recognize that very serious injuries can lie dormant until they become even more serious – and far more difficult to treat effectively. Further, the adrenaline and shock generated by the accident can mask the pain you’re feeling. It’s always in your best interest to seek medical attention after a car accident.
Your Injuries
Some of the injuries that are most common to serious car accidents include:
- Broken bones that are as slow to heal as they are excruciatingly painful
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) that can lead to severe emotional and psychological consequences
- Spinal cord injuries that can seriously decrease your range of motion and that can lead to chronic pain
- Burns that are extremely susceptible to serious infections and secondary health problems
Any of these injuries can require ongoing healthcare needs, which lead to ongoing medical expenses.
Your Legal Damages
Your car accident claim will address the losses you experience as a result of the other driver’s negligence in terms of damages, which can include any of the following categories:
- Property damage to your car
- Medical expenses that can be extensive and may be ongoing
- Lost earnings that can segue into lost earning potential
- Emotional and physical pain and suffering that can reach debilitating proportions
