Yes! You should never have to face the California legal system alone. The laws governing injury-causing incidents in the state of California can be difficult to understand, but with the right attorney, you can potentially obtain the compensation that you deserve.
Here is a list of essential actions you should take following your auto accident:
Stay at the scene. You never want to flee as it could be considered a hit and run.
Check on the other drivers and passengers to make sure that everyone is OK.
If there was serious property damage, injury, or death, contact the police.
Exchange all necessary information with the other drivers and passengers.
Take pictures of the scene of the accident, including injuries and property damage.
Talk to any witnesses to the accident and gather their contact information.
Get in touch with your insurance company about the accident.
Contact an experienced personal injury lawyer to represent your rights.
Yes, there are certain things that you should refrain from doing because they could potentially hinder your case:
Never apologize for the crash or admit it was your fault.
Never talk to the other insurance company without your attorney.
Never accept the first settlement offer without talking to a lawyer.
Each case is different, and depending on the individuals involved, the type of injuries you sustained and other details of your case, the total amount of time can vary drastically. Often a case cannot be resolved until your injuries have been identified and your condition stabilized. A simple fracture case where injuries have improved may settle more quickly than catastrophic injury cases that require extensive litigation and expertise. Working with an attorney can give you a better idea of how long your specific case may take.
We do not accept cases that we do not think we can win. Case value is something that differs depending upon both liability and injury features of each case. There is no set formula in this business. When you work with our firm, we will immediately take action to determine what your case may be worth and how much compensation may be available to you for your injuries and suffering. Each case is unique, but with the right attorney on your side, you may be able to obtain monetary compensation.
