Trucking Accident Do's and Don't's
We understand that it may not be possible to perform any of these actions after an accident. However, if possible, they can be beneficial to the legal prospects of truck accident injury victims.
Do:
- Take pictures of the accident scene, including skid marks, property damage and debris
- Make note of road conditions, weather conditions and other factors that may have influenced the accident
- Take pictures of road signs
- Gather names and addresses of potential witnesses
Do not:
- Make any statement to an insurance company representative
- Get your car repaired before talking to an attorney
Perhaps the most important thing you can do to protect your rights it to speak with an experienced personal injury attorney before making any statement to an insurance company. While the insurance representative may seem helpful, they are only trying to limit or outright deny the compensation you are entitled to. Our lawyers have your best interests in mind and will do everything they can to help you achieve a favorable result.
