Injuries & Immediate Care 

The first thing you should do after a car accident is to seek medical attention, even if the crash was minor. You may have suffered unseen injuries such as whiplash, cuts, and bruises that you must treat first. If there are any visible injuries, call 911 immediately for assistance and visit the hospital for treatment.

 

Get Legal Advice 

After seeking medical attention, contact an experienced personal injury lawyer or car accident attorney to get advice on how to proceed from here on out. A reputable attorney like Ernesto Gonzalez at the Law Offices of Ernesto Gonzalez can guide dealing with insurance companies, filing compensation claims, paying medical bills, and more.

 

Preserve Evidence 

You must gather evidence at the scene of the accident. Take pictures of the damage to both cars and exchange information with all parties involved in the incident.

Ensure you also get witness statements for testimonial evidence later if needed. It may also be beneficial to keep track of any medical records related to your injury and notes about missed work due to your recovery period. All this information will be helpful when filing a claim for compensation or proving liability in court if necessary.
