Car Accident FAQs

What should I do immediately following an auto accident?

Ensure Safety: First, check for injuries and ensure everyone involved is safe. Move to a safe location if possible, without leaving the scene.
Call 911: Report the accident to the police, even if it seems minor. This will provide an official record and is often required by law.
Document the Scene: Take photos of the accident site, including all vehicles involved, any visible damage, and road conditions. This can be crucial for your claim.
Exchange Information: Collect contact and insurance information from all parties involved, but limit conversation about the accident to avoid admitting fault.
Seek Medical Attention: Even if you feel fine, some injuries are not immediately apparent. A medical evaluation can identify hidden injuries and provide a record that the injuries were caused by the accident.
Contact Your Lawyer: Before dealing with insurance companies, consult with your auto accident lawyer to protect your rights and ensure you take the right steps to support your claim.

What if the at-fault driver is uninsured?

If the at-fault driver is uninsured, you still have options to recover damages:

Uninsured Motorist Coverage: If you have uninsured motorist coverage as part of your insurance policy, you can file a claim with your own insurer.
Legal Action: Consider legal action to pursue compensation directly from the at-fault driver, though this can be challenging if they lack sufficient assets.
Consult Your Attorney: Speak with your attorney to explore all available legal avenues and strategies to secure the compensation you deserve.

Should I speak to the insurance adjuster myself?

It is advisable not to speak to the insurance adjuster directly without legal representation:

Consult Your Lawyer First: Insurance adjusters are skilled at minimizing payouts. Your lawyer can handle communications to ensure your rights are protected and you are not manipulated into accepting a lower settlement.
Avoid Recorded Statements: Do not agree to provide a recorded statement without consulting your lawyer. What you say can be used against you to reduce your claim’s value.

Who can be a witness in my auto accident case?

Witnesses can include:

Eyewitnesses: People who were present at the scene and observed the accident firsthand.
Expert Witnesses: Medical professionals, accident reconstruction experts, or financial analysts who can provide testimony on the specifics of the accident, your injuries, and how they affect your life.
Character Witnesses: Individuals who can testify about your condition before and after the accident, offering insights into the impact on your life.

Why do auto accident claims sometimes take long to resolve?

Several factors can contribute to the duration of auto accident claims:

Severity of Injuries: More severe or complex injuries may require extended treatment, delaying final assessments of medical expenses and recovery outcomes.
Dispute Over Fault: If fault is not clear-cut, additional investigation and negotiation may be needed, which can prolong the process.
Legal and Insurance Processes: The legal and administrative procedures involved in negotiating settlements or preparing for trial can be time-consuming.
High-value Claims: Larger claims, involving significant sums for damages, often face more resistance from insurance companies, leading to longer negotiation periods or trials.
