Insurance carriers employ full-time adjusters and defense lawyers whose priority is minimizing what you are paid. In the meantime, to protect your physical recovery and facilitate your legal claim, follow these essential steps:
Taking prompt, organized action preserves crucial evidence and counters early insurance adjuster tactics.
Try to take pictures of the scene. Take photos of the damaged vehicles, wet floors, skid marks, or whatever factors contributed to an injury. The more pictures the better. Make sure to include multiple angles of how the accident occurred and the cause. Additionally, take photos of your related injuries.
If there are witnesses to the injury scene, make sure and get their names and contact information for us to follow up with. Neutral eyewitness statements can be decisive in establishing liability before memories fade.
If you suffered any kind of injuries, even if the extent is not immediately apparent, seek immediate medical attention. This helps identify conditions, such as soft tissue trauma, that do not become symptomatic until later, and creates official doctor records linking injuries to the incident.
File hospital and doctor bills with your health insurance company. It is critical to keep your own complete copies as well for reference and legal reimbursement calculation.
We recommend you to not give recorded statements to insurance companies. Often, insurance companies will use your own statement against you. We suggest that you only talk to the insurance company about damage to your automobile. Take down representative names, phone numbers, call times, and subject matter.
Make sure to document all of the medical expenses associated with the treatment and management of any injuries for reimbursement and compensation purposes. Expenses to document include medical bills, prescription costs, assistive devices, and insurance co-pays.
Medical records provide a significant amount of diagnostic and treatment information that is essential for a personal injury claim. Hugh Morris Law assists you in obtaining and evaluating all hospital charts and diagnostic scans.
After a personal injury occurs, it is important to document the accident incident, injuries, work missed, lost wages, and related conversations. Maintaining records and keeping everything organized is crucial for the success of your settlement or lawsuit.
