Seek medical attention ASAP. Make sure the police are called and a report is made. Photograph any injuries you have, the cars involved, and the scene if possible. Write down names. Addresses, and phone numbers of any witnesses. Do not give a taped statement without legal advice. Call Syfrett and Dykes with any further questions you have.
Because the insurance companies have attorneys and claims adjusters working for them from the day you were injured. Unfortunately, the insurance company wants to see you make as many mistakes as possible because this decreases the value of your claim. If you give a taped statement without knowing what the insurance adjuster is really trying to do you may be unaware that your words can decrease the value of your case.
If you want to make sure you are treated fairly and if you want your rights protected in the event you are injured then YES you should contact an attorney. We do free initial consultations on all automobile accident cases. You have nothing to lose by contacting an attorney but a lot to lose if you don’t. We welcome your phone call today. We have handled hundreds of automobile accident cases and we are happy to assist you.
