You’ve been in a collision. Now what?

• NOTIFY THE POLICE. Get the names, addresses and telephone numbers of all drivers, owners and occupants of all involved vehicles, as well as the license plate and make, model and color of the vehicles.
• Get the names, addresses and telephone numbers of witnesses.
• Do not accept responsibility and do not discuss the cause of the collision with anyone except the police officer at the scene.
• If you think you need medical attention, have the police officer call an ambulance or go to the nearest Emergency Room or Urgent Care Center. Advise them of each part of your body that you suspect may have been injured.
• See your doctor.
• Call your attorney or one that practices in the field of personal injury.

After the accident: You need medical attention, and doctors say you need ongoing treatment to get better.

• As soon as possible, you should consult an attorney who is experienced in handling personal injury claims.
• An insurance company may well call you shortly after the accident and urge you to “save the cost of an attorney.” Studies have shown, however, that settlements are higher if a competent personal injury attorney is involved.
