Why You Need a Car Accident Lawyer
Car accidents are usually a stressful and devastating experience, which is why it’s so crucial to retain an experienced personal injury attorney to fight for your rights. A car accident can inflict profound devastation, from enduring physical pain and emotional trauma, to coping with the lengthy recovery process, it becomes an immensely challenging ordeal to navigate.
No individual emerges from a car accident unharmed, even if the injuries aren’t immediately apparent to the naked eye. Certain complications may manifest long after the accident has already passed. Hence, the significance of retaining the right personal injury attorney can be profound. While the right attorney cannot entirely alleviate the complexities of dealing with an accident, they can certainly mitigate them to a great extent. Although nothing can fully erase the impact of an accident, obtaining compensation can significantly contribute to rectifying the wrongs inflicted upon you and your loved ones.

Steps To Take After Being Involved In a Car Accident
- DO NOT LEAVE THE SCENE — Check yourself for injuries and call 911. Leaving the scene of an accident without exchanging information could add criminal charges to your record.
- CALL 911 — Even in the absence of serious injuries, obtaining a police report can significantly bolster your claim. Law enforcement officials can document the incident, gather pertinent information, and incorporate it into an official record.
- EXCHANGE INFORMATION — Exchange contact details such as names, phone numbers, and insurance information with the other driver(s) involved in the accident. Taking photos of the driver’s licenses and insurance ID cards from all of the drivers involved in the crash is usually the best practice to ensure accurate information is exchanged.
- TAKE PHOTOS — Take photos of the accident scene and all the vehicles involved in the accident (including yours), depicting the damages caused by the impact.
- AVOID DISCUSSING FAULT — It is important to remember that anything you say can and will be used against you at a later time. When communicating with officers at the scene and other motorists involved, refrain from admitting or implying fault for the accident.
- SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION — Even if you think your injuries are only minor, it is always best to seek immediate medical attention following a car accident. What appears to be a slight headache could indicate a traumatic brain injury, while a stiff neck may signify permanent damage to your spinal cord. It’s also important to note that if someone involved in a car accident delays seeking medical treatment, the insurance company may exploit this during settlement negotiations by arguing that the injuries couldn’t have been severe if medical attention wasn’t sought promptly.
- CONTACT GLENDALE LAW GROUP — Prior to reaching out to your insurance provider, we advise contacting Glendale Law Group, as our attorneys can guide you through the appropriate steps and protocols tailored to your specific circumstances. Remember, our consultations are always complimentary and we only collect payment if your case is successful.
