What Should I Do After an Accident?

Your first priority should be obtaining appropriate medical attention. Even when an injury initially appears minor, following up with a medical professional may help identify conditions that are not immediately obvious and create documentation of your treatment. You should also take reasonable steps to preserve evidence from the accident.

How to Prove Liability?

To pursue a negligence-based personal injury claim, you generally need to establish that another party owed you a duty of care, failed to meet that duty, and caused your injuries. The evidence needed to establish those elements depends on what happened, whether the accident involved a driver, property owner, manufacturer, or another party, and what defenses the opposing side raises.
