Lefkowicz
& Gottfried's 7 important tips for accident
victims:
1. Make sure to file a report with police or other authority to document the accident.
2. Get the name, address and phone number of anyone involved in the accident - as well as any witnesses.
3. Take photographs of the scene and any injuries. Use your cell phone if it
has a camera and consider keeping a disposable camera in your car´s glovebox.
4. Never talk to anyone about the accident other than your lawyer and doctor.
5. Do not admit to anything at the accident scene. Even truthful statements can be misinterpreted and used against you.
6. Seek immediate medical help for any injuries. Take care of yourself first and foremost.
7. Consult an attorney as soon as possible. The time limit to file a legal action can be surprisingly short. Missing any deadline can severely limit your right to recover.
