Having an attorney on your side to represent your best interests can help you receive the compensation you need to help recover physically, emotionally, and financially.
If you are involved in a car accident that is someone else's fault, then you may be entitled to be reimbursed for the following, and more:

• Medical bills
• Rehabilitation costs
• Lost wages
• Pain and suffering
• Property damage

• Remain calm and stay at the scene. It is never a good idea to leave the scene of the accident, even if you believe you are not at fault.
• Wait for the police to arrive so they can gather information and determine who may be at fault for the police report.
• Check for injuries – If someone is in need of medical attention, call for an ambulance.
• Get information. You will need to write down the license plate numbers and insurance details of all the drivers involved. Don’t forget to ask witnesses for their contact information as well, as they may be able to provide testimony in the future.
• Don’t admit responsibility. Even saying something as simple as “I’m sorry” can be viewed as admitting fault.
• See a doctor. Visit a doctor immediately, even if you feel fine. Some injuries may not be apparent at first, so it is always best to get a full checkup within hours of the accident. If your doctor recommends treatment, follow through with the treatment and do not miss appointments.
• Call an attorney. Dealing with the claims process can be confusing and even stressful. Have an attorney handle all the details for you. An attorney is trained specifically on how to deal with insurers sand how to fight for the maximum compensation possible.
