What To Do After A Serious Car Accident

The actions you take in the aftermath of a car accident can make a big difference in outcome of your case and the compensation you receive.

The two most critical things you can do is to get medical care and contact an experienced personal injury law firm. But there are other important things to do as well.

In a consultation, a lawyer at Scott M. Brown & Associates can review your case, answer your questions and provide guidance that can protect your ability to claim compensation. Call us today at 979-849-8526.

After An Accident, Take Action To Protect Your Rights

Some of the things you should do after a serious
car accident include the following:

Get medical care immediately — One might think that this goes without saying. However, some people delay getting treatment. Even if you feel OK, you should see a doctor. The effects of some injuries (such as concussions) reveal themselves only over time.

Document the chain of events leading to the accident — To the best of your recollection, write down what happened and when. This does not have to be elaborate, but it can serve as a starting point for our comprehensive investigation.
