After an auto accident in Georgia

A car accident can be a traumatic experience for a motorist, even if only minor injuries are involved. You may be worried about the damage to your vehicle. If you are hurt, you may be concerned about paying for medical care or the possibility of taking time off from work and losing income.

You may be unsure of what to do next. Do you talk to the other drivers involved? Do you call your insurance company? Do you need a lawyer?

Having an advocate on your side can be helpful after a car accident, especially if you are dealing with serious injuries. The injury and accident attorneys at the CEO Lawyer Personal Injury Law Firmwill take care of all the details while you focus on getting better. You take care of the physical recovery, and we will take care of the financial recovery.

To get the most compensation for your claim, you must understand what to do and what not to do after an accident. One wrong move can negatively impact your claim and reduce your compensation significantly.

What Should You Do After a Car Accident

After a car accident, you will likely be feeling a burst of adrenaline. This can cause you to neglect certain things or not to experience pain. Here are some important steps to remember:

  • Stop the vehicle. Do not simply just out of the car. Park and turn it off to avoid further damage. After a car wreck, panicked people often jump out of their car, neglecting to power it off. Doing so can result in serious further injury and damage.
  • Call 911. Stay calm throughout the process. Panicking will only make the situation worse. Stay there until help arrives.
  • Take pictures and/or videos of the accident scene. Get as much physical evidence as possible of vehicle damage, physical injuries, and the surrounding areas.
  • Exchange information with the other driver. Be sure to get information from the other drivers involved, including name, contact information, insurance information, license plate, and vehicle description.
  • Obtain a copy of the police report. This can help determine liability for the crash.
  • Save all evidence. Any documents, medical records, and reports should be saved. These can all help establish liability.
  • Keep track of all injuries. The insurance company will try to prove that you are not hurt. Keep track of any pain as well as diagnosed injuries as evidence.
  • Contact a lawyer. If you have been seriously injured, an experienced personal injury lawyer can assess your claim and help you obtain all the damages you deserve. Contact the CEO Lawyer, as soon as possible after your accident. Our legal team will begin working for you immediately.

What Not to do After a Car Accident

There are some things you should do after a car accident and some things you should avoid doing. To avoid hurting your accident case, do not do the following:

  • NEVER admit fault. Even simply saying “I’m sorry” is considered an admission of guilt. While you may think it is the polite thing to do, the insurance company will think otherwise. It does not take much for an insurance company to find you at fault, so do not admit fault and make it even easier.
  • Do not talk to the insurance company. While you will need to report the accident to your insurance company, you are not obligated to talk to the other driver’s insurance company. Anything you say can be used against you, so contact a lawyer instead to be on the safe side. The CEO Lawyer can help you with this.
  • Do not neglect medical treatment. It is important to seek medical help as soon as possible, even if you feel fine. Injuries can appear days or weeks later. If you do not visit the doctor or follow their orders, the insurance company will assume you are not injured and lowball your claim. If money is an issue, contact the CEO Lawyer and we will help you find a doctor who will not charge you out of pocket.
  • Do not wait to seek legal advice. Personal injury lawyers should never ask for money upfront. At the CEO Lawyer Personal Injury Law Firm we have a ton of free information available online, and we never charge for consultations. You pay only if we win your case. If you have been injured in a car accident, call the CEO Lawyer immediately at (833) 254-2923.

Help Negotiating with Insurance Carriers

To quickly resolve matters following an accident, insurance companies will offer you less than you deserve in compensation for your injuries. Many victims feel pressured to accept these offers as the bills begin to pile up, but that is rarely a good idea. The insurance company is looking to protect its bottom line; and will offer injured victims less than they deserve. An experienced personal injury attorney understands how to negotiate with the insurance company and can look out for your best interests by getting you the compensation you deserve after an injury. If you or a loved one has been injured in an accident, it is important to avoid negotiating or providing recorded statements to the insurance company without first seeking help from a qualified personal injury attorney.
