Key Information On Car Accident Cases

Depending on the severity of your injuries, it’s important that either you or family members, if you’ve been severely or catastrophically injured, document as much as possible. Oftentimes we as lawyers are at a disadvantage if we don’t get a case until many months down the road, because we have lost some crucial time between the date of the crash and the time that we’re involved in the case. Oftentimes the insurance company for the at fault driver or the at fault truck driver will be on the scene right away, documenting what occurred.

So it’s important that you document not only what happened at the scene, document witnesses that may have observed what happened, but also documenting your injuries with photographs or videos of you in the hospital or of your injuries so that the evidence can be documented and maintained and safeguarded to be used later in the claims handling process.
