Take These Important Steps after a Car Accident
If another driver’s negligence leaves you injured, it’s important to focus on your recovery. While your car accident claim will not be exactly like anyone else’s, there are steps that every car accident victim should take, and one of them is consulting with an experienced Beverly Hills car accident attorney as soon as you’re able to do so.
The Basics
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports that 2021 is slated to be the most dangerous year on record for fatal traffic accidents, with an estimated 42,915 deaths. Car accidents are far too common, and knowing how to protect your claim – in pursuit of your most complete recovery – is paramount. The basic steps every car accident victim should take include:
- Take your injuries seriously by seeking medical attention early on (even if you aren’t convinced that your injuries are serious) and by carefully following your doctor’s instructions and advice throughout the recovery process.
- Make a conscious effort not to post on social media. The insurance company is waiting for you to reveal more than you intend to, and social media also opens you up to privacy concerns.
- Allow your car accident attorney to communicate with the insurance company on behalf of you and your claim. Again, the insurance company is interested in tripping you up, and limiting their access to you is well advised.
