What to Do after a Car Accident

In order to protect yourself, there are a number of things you can do following a car accident beyond talking to an attorney:

  1. Record the personal and insurance information of other involved drivers. Try to obtain contact information for any witnesses at the scene.
  2. Make no statement to other drivers beyond providing your own personal and insurance information. If the police are at the scene, you will also be required to make a brief statement describing the incident. Always be truthful and civil.
  3. Record the scene of the accident using drawings or photographs. Keep a disposable camera in your car for this purpose.
  4. Report the accident to your insurance company immediately. Any delay may give your insurance provider grounds for denying your claim.
  5. See a doctor following a car accident for a complete medical evaluation. Conditions associated with your accident may not manifest themselves immediately, but could cause chronic pain and other health problems without proper treatment. Keep records of all medical treatment you receive.
  6. Provide all materials and information related to the car accident to your attorney.
