If You’re In a Collision
- Compose yourself; the scene will be chaotic. Check for injuries and make sure you and any passengers are OK.- Dial 911 if anyone is injured. If you have any doubt as to whether you suffered any injury, allow emergency medical personnel to transport you to the nearest hospital.
- If injured, you may discuss the accident with a physician; your attorney will discuss the case with the insurance company. We advise that you speak with us first and do not speak with the insurance company yourself- not your own insurance company or the other driver’s insurance company. Anything you say to the police cannot be used against you in your personal injury case. However, anything you say to anyone else can. Never agree to give a recorded statement.
