5 Mistakes to Avoid After a Car Accident
Leaving the Scene: Never leave the accident scene, even if it seems minor. You must report the collision to the Orange County Police Department or call 911. Failure to provide your contact information or notify the police can make you legally responsible for the accident.
Admitting Fault: Avoid admitting fault or apologizing, as this can be taken as accepting responsibility for the collision, even if you aren’t liable. Wait for the responding officers to arrive before sharing any information.
Neglecting Medical Attention: Some injuries may not be immediately apparent. Seek medical assistance right away to ensure your health and to document any injuries.
Not Collecting Evidence: Gather evidence at the accident site. Take photos of the vehicles, road conditions, visible injuries, and other relevant details. You must also obtain contact information from witnesses. If you have suffered a physical injury, you may contact a car accident lawyer in California to help gather the necessary evidence for a personal injury claim.
Handling the Claim Alone: Managing a car accident claim can be overwhelming, especially if you lack knowledge about personal injury law while dealing with injuries. A personal injury attorney can guide you through the legal process, provide valuable advice, and help secure the compensation you deserve.
Avoiding these common mistakes can protect your rights and improve your chances of receiving fair compensation after an accident. If you think you may have made one of these errors, seek legal counsel from a car accident lawyer who can advise you on the best course of action based on your situation.
