Steps to Take After Your Auto Accident
It can be difficult to know what to do after your auto accident, but that’s why your local Riverview auto accident lawyer is here to provide you with guidance. Before you come to us, there are steps you can take after your car accident to set yourself up for the best legal defense.
If you or someone else on the scene has been injured, then your first step is to get medical attention. Even if it’s a small injury, you’ll want to document the treatment so you can be compensated for it later.
If the accident was severe, if you don’t know who caused it, or if anyone was injured you will need to call the police. When they arrive on the scene, be sure to also ask for their names, badge numbers, and the case number on the report for later.
Your car insurance company will be covering your injuries and car damages, so you’ll want to report the accident as soon as you can.
If your car isn’t driveable, you’ll need to call a tow truck to take it to an auto repair shop. Be sure to record the driver’s information and keep track of the towing cost as well.
You’ll want to document the interior and exterior of both cars, road conditions, the location, weather, and any injuries if you’re able to. These photos and videos will later be used as evidence when negotiating your insurance claim.
Before you even call your insurance company, you’ll want to call a lawyer. They can instruct you on your next steps and what you should and shouldn’t say to your insurance company, the police, and the other driver.

- Duty Violation: The at-fault driver didn’t fulfill their duty of care, resulting in injuries and damages.
- Cause and Effect: Their negligence directly caused your injury and damages.
- You Suffered Damages: Because of the accident, you have lost wages, medical expenses, damage to your car, etc.
