What should I do if I’ve been in a personal injury accident?
The basic steps after any accident that causes personal injuries are the following:
- Seek medical help. Whether you’re hurting or not, it’s advisable to seek a medical review at the nearest emergency room or with your family doctor. Prompt medical care can help your medical recovery and the success of your legal claim. If you’re too injured to help yourself, the police or someone at the accident site should arrange for emergency medical transport.
- Provide proper notices. If you’re in a vehicle accident, you should notify the police. If you’re injured while on someone’s property, you should notify the owner or a supervisor. If you’re hurt at work, then notify your employer or a manager. In vehicle accident cases, you should notify your own insurance company.
- Call our respected Harlandale personal injury attorney. We can answer your questions, explain your rights, and work aggressively to obtain the compensation you deserve.
