Useful information for the road ahead

Know what to protect. Know what to ask.

These resources explain common steps after an injury and help you organize the information an attorney may need to evaluate a claim.

After an accident

Your after-an-accident checklist.

Get medical attention and follow the provider’s instructions
Photograph the scene, vehicles, property conditions, and visible injuries when safe
Collect contact and insurance information from the people involved
Identify witnesses and preserve any available video
Save medical records, bills, repair estimates, receipts, and proof of missed work
Avoid posting details about the incident or your recovery on social media
Speak with an attorney before signing releases or giving a recorded statement

Know before you sign

Three things worth understanding early.

01 · Document organizer

Keep a clear record.

A clear record can make it easier to understand how the incident affected your health, work, finances, and daily life.

02 · Insurance communications

Slow down before you agree.

Insurance companies may ask for information quickly. Before agreeing to a recorded statement, broad medical authorization, or settlement, make sure you understand what is being requested and how it may affect the claim.

03 · Diminished value

Repaired is not the same as whole.

A repaired vehicle may still be worth less after an accident. Diminished value depends on the vehicle, damage history, repairs, insurance coverage, and applicable law.
