Steps to Take After You Are in a Car Accident in Hyde Park

If you have been involved in a car accident in Hyde Park, we suggest that you follow our car accident checklist to ensure that your lawsuit goes as smoothly as possible. Some items from our checklist include:

• See a doctor as soon as possible. If you have been in an accident, your health and safety is top priority. Even though you might feel okay after an accident, you need to visit your regular physician or head to nearby Brigham and Women’s Faulkner Hospital for treatment, if you weren’t transported by ambulance. Documenting your injuries will help prove that the accident caused your injuries, instead of another incident.
• Gather evidence at the scene of the accident. Although your attorney will gather official records and reports, you should try to record as much information at the scene as possible. Use your cell phone to take pictures of the cars, license plates, damage, etc., and your injuries. You should also try to get the insurance information for each driver at the scene of the accident.
• Only talk about the accident with your attorney. The defense will also investigate the accident, and you don’t want them to learn of any statements that you made that they might be able to take out of context. It’s in your best interest to not talk about your accident with friends or family, or post pictures or details on social media.
