What to Do After an Accident

If you’ve been involved in an accident, following these immediate steps can help protect your rights and strengthen your case, whether it’s a motor vehicle accident, oilfield & mining accident, premises liability, or wrongful death incident:

Ensure Safety: Move to a safe area if possible. This applies to motor vehicle accidents and accidents on job sites. Avoid any further risks. 

Call Emergency Services: Contact the police and emergency responders immediately. They will document the accident, which is crucial for future legal proceedings. A police report can be especially important in motor vehicle accidents and premises liability cases.

Collect Evidence:

  • Photos: Take pictures of the scene, damages, injuries, and anything relevant. This is especially important in motor vehicle accidents and accidents on business properties.
  • Witness Statements: Gather information from witnesses who saw the accident. This can help in cases like premises liability or accidents involving oilfield & mining accidents.
  • Police Report: Ensure a police report is filed to officially document the event.

Seek Medical Attention: Even if you don't feel injured, it's critical to get checked out by a health care provider. Some injuries caused by these accidents may not be immediately apparent.

Track Your Injuries and Medical Costs: Keep a detailed record of all medical treatments, prescriptions, bills, and expenses related to your recovery.

What to Expect in a Personal Injury Lawsuit

After an accident, filing a personal injury lawsuit may be necessary to get compensation. Here’s what you can expect:

Filing the Claim: Your attorney will help file a claim with the responsible party’s insurance. Whether it’s a motor vehicle accident, oilfield & mining accident, or premises liability, your attorney ensures the correct paperwork is submitted.

Negotiation and Settlement: The majority of personal injury cases settle outside of court through negotiations. However, if a fair settlement cannot be reached, your case may go to trial.

Case Duration: The time it takes to resolve a personal injury claim can vary. While some cases settle in months, others, particularly complex cases involving wrongful death or severe injuries from oilfield & mining accidents, may take longer.
