Preparing to Make a Personal Injury Claim

Insurance companies are difficult to deal with, and successfully mounting a claim after a car accident — even one that was no fault of your own — can be difficult without legal backup. How much your claim may be worth, and how you may pursue it, depend on a variety of factors that include some action on your part. Review the following “dos” and “don’ts” to avoid common mistakes while connecting with an accident lawyer with the skills to handle your claim.

Do:

• Seek treatment for your injuries as soon as possible and follow all directions given to you by your doctor.
• Gather all the facts and retain evidence, from photos of the accident scene to information about your medical bills and lost wages.
• Schedule a consultation with an accident attorney to review your case as soon as possible.

Don’t:

• Make statements about the accident to insurers. These statements often come back to cause problems in cases because insurance companies use them to invalidate claims.
• Widely discuss or share your story on social media. Although tempting to share, such posts can complicate or even endanger your ability to make a claim.
• Wait weeks or months to seek legal representation.

In short, care for yourself, seek legal consultation and let the facts speak for themselves.

How Much Could My Claim Be Worth?

The potential value of any claim will depend on many factors, from the severity of the injury to the facts of the accident itself. Every case is different, and recoveries in one set of circumstances may not be typical of all cases. The best way to find out what you could recover is to take action now. Set up a consultation with our attorneys to discuss the facts of your case and to determine the right way to proceed.

Testimonial from Andrew, a motor vehicle accident victim in San Diego

I was in a motor vehicle accident involving a city vehicle. I had a witness who vouched for me as I was not at fault. I searched for a lawyer to handle my case and was recommended by a friend to contact Adam Hepburn. I reached out to him and with in a few days had a consultation in person. From the moment we sat down and spoke I could tell he was genuine and honest. He made me feel comfortable and eased all the stress I had been holding onto. Through out the whole process he kept me informed, walked me through all the steps I needed to take and answered all of my questions as this was my first ever experience using a lawyer. He is a easy to work with and achieved a good outcome for my case. I highly recommend him for anyone in need of attorney services.
