1. Take photos of the accident scene if possible, as well as your injuries and the damages to both vehicles. If you have bruising that shows up later or if the doctor requests you wear and utilize a medical device, or a cast, have someone take more photos.
2. Call an experienced automobile accident attorney as soon as possible. The attorneys at the Wells Law Group are ready to help you.
3. Get a copy of your insurance policy.
4. Do not talk with the other driver’s insurance company representatives, adjusters or investigators.
5. Keep all the receipts for money you’ve spent on car rental, medical bills and purchases made in connection with the motor vehicle accident.
6. Document any time you have missed work or go to the doctor.
7. Any time you travel for something related to the accident or your injuries, record your mileage.
8. Make a diary, daily if possible, to assist you in later remembering your pain, hardship, limitations and things you missed out on or were limited in doing because of your injuries. If you start your diary late, try to write down everything you can recall. This will be important later in your case.
9. Document everything. Keep copies of any document given to you by your or the other driver’s insurer. This includes all correspondence you receive, as well as copies of anything you send your own insurer or any other person or entity regarding the loss. Take notes of every telephone conference or personal meeting with an insurance adjuster, agent, investigator or anyone asking you questions regarding your loss, and try to confirm the conversation in writing with a letter to the insurer. This includes each time you call and cannot reach the person you are calling and you have to leave a message with someone else or a voice mail. This is VERY important.
10. Be truthful with your insurer, and if you begin dealing with the other driver’s insurer, be truthful with them as well. NEVER misrepresent anything to any insurance company. An attempt to defraud an insurance company can be met with severe criminal penalties.
11. Never accept any check form an insurer that states it is "full payment," "final payment," or any similar language, or if it releases the insurer or anyone else, or even says the word release, without seeking the advice of an experienced personal injury attorney.
