Getting into an accident, whether it’s a car accident or another type of accident, can be scary and overwhelming.
Here’s what you should do immediately after an accident:
- go to a doctor and get treatment for your injuries
- preserve as much evidence as you can – damaged personal items, photos and video records of the accident, and everything you can remember about the incident
- financial and non-financial losses, such as medical bills and expenses, should be documented
- report the accident to law enforcement and your insurance company, but avoid giving a recorded statement until you speak with a lawyer
- follow your doctor’s advice
- avoid posting online about the accident
