What to do Following Your Accident
Here are some steps that you can take after you have been injured to help your Pico Rivera personal injury attorney maximize the amount of financial compensation you receive:
- Ensure the accident is documented, whether by filing a police report for a motor vehicle accident or an incident report at the business where you slipped and fell.
- Seek medical attention as soon as possible, even if you do not think you need it. Some injuries will not surface until your adrenaline subsides hours later. By waiting too long, you may be undermining the amount of financial compensation you ultimately receive. The defendant can argue that you were not seriously injured, or the injury was not caused by this accident.
- Take pictures of everything that might be useful in your claim, including your injuries, property damage, and the accident location.
- Collect the contact information of any eyewitnesses to the accident, and if warranted– a wrongful death lawyer will follow up with them.
- If possible, delete all of your social media accounts. If you cannot do that, then make sure that nobody tags you– relating to your accident or injuries.
- During the pendency of your case, assume at all times that a private investigator is following you. This is a common tactic utilized by insurance companies.
Finally, schedule a consultation with an experienced personal injury lawyer in Pico Rivera as soon as possible. The insurance company will almost immediately present a settlement offer. It is usually far below the true market value of your claim. They hope you will accept that offer and thereby minimize your financial recovery. By consulting with an experienced personal injury attorney in Pico Rivera at Salamati Law, you will learn the approximate fair value of your claim.
