What to do after a car accident
Always report an accident to the police. When injuries make reporting the accident at the scene unrealistic, make sure the report is filed with law enforcement as soon as possible.
If it is possible and safe, use your phone to take photos of the accident scene, including the vehicles involved, any skid marks or road obstructions, or any evidence relating to the crash. Get the contact and insurance information of the other driver, as well as the contact information for any witnesses.
If an ambulance is at the scene, allow them to take you to the hospital if the first responders think it necessary. If an ambulance is not at the scene, have someone take you to the emergency room or an urgent care center immediately, even if you do not think you were badly injured. Seeking prompt medical attention after an accident is critical. Failure to do so means an insurance company can allege the injuries were not that serious, or even another accident caused them.
Follow doctor’s orders and attend all accident-related follow-up appointments.
Do not post photos or comments about the car accident on social media. Insurance companies will comb through your social media accounts, looking for statements that they can use against you in your claim.
An insurance company will likely contact you shortly after the accident to obtain a statement regarding the collision and your injuries. Never give a statement to the insurance adjuster before obtaining legal counsel. Insurance companies want to pay as little as possible in claims. A Hopewell car accident lawyer knows a fair settlement amount for the type of injuries suffered by their clients.
Compensation, also known as damages, for car accident injuries in Virginia may include:
- Medical expenses, current, and future
- Lost wages
- Property damage
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
