How Michael Kelly Can Help You After a Dedham Car Accident

While some car accidents result in minor injuries that don’t require filing a lawsuit or retaining a lawyer, serious, severe, and fatal injuries do. An experienced car accident lawyer will handle multiple aspects of your case, including:

• Investigating your case

  We will thoroughly investigate your case, including gathering evidence, speaking to potential witnesses and obtaining necessary police reports and medical records.

• Consulting with experts

  We have a diverse network of experts who specialize in fields who will help support your case. Our network of specialists includes accident reconstruction experts, life care planners and more.

• Negotiating with insurance companies

  Insurance companies will try to contact auto accident victims and make low settlement offers, perhaps as a way to avoid a larger payout at trial. We want you to focus on healing and recovery while we communicate with all relevant parties and negotiate to pursue the best possible outcome for your case.

• Litigating your case

  Many car accident cases are settled without going to court. Sometimes, insurance companies don’t want to pay what you truly deserve for the losses you have incurred in a car accident. If or when this happens, Kelley & Associates will be ready to aggressively litigate your case.

Immediate Actions After a Car Accident in Dedham

If you experienced a car accident in Dedham, we suggest that you follow our car accident checklist to make sure that your claim goes smoothly. Some tips from our list include:

1. Seek immediate medical attention. Your health and the health of anyone involved in the car accident is of the utmost importance. Even if you feel fine after an accident, you need to visit your doctor or head to nearby hospital such as Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center for treatment if you haven’t gone by ambulance. Some injuries take a few hours or a few days to show up. So, getting checked out right away will help prevent insurance companies from claiming that your car accident did not cause your injuries.
2. Gather as much information as possible at the accident scene. Although your lawyer can help you with this aspect, especially if you need to go to the hospital, it is best to record as much information as possible at the scene. Take photos of the vehicles, the license plates and the intersection with your cell phone and record the insurance information of other drivers. Also, take pictures of your injuries.
3. Don’t talk about your accident with anyone. You should refer the other driver’s insurance company to your lawyer and not discuss your accident on social media. It’s also in your best interest to not make any statements that might result in you admitting a portion of fault for the accident.
