Salt Lake City Auto Accidents

If you have been in a car or truck accident, you may recover money from one or more insurance companies. You must act quickly after an accident occurs because what you do can impact your potential damages. An experienced personal injury attorney will make sure that you do not lose your legal rights to compensation.

Automobile accidents can lead to a tidal wave of insurance forms, reports, medical bills, etc.

Some injuries may not show themselves until sometime after an accident. By not seeing a doctor, you risk delaying your treatment and further injury. Even minor soreness can be an indication of a serious injury.

Important Things You Should Do When an Accident Has Occurred:

• Insist that a report be filed with the police, sheriff or highway patrol.
• Obtain the name, address, insurance information, vehicle license number and driver's license number of everyone involved in the accident. Also get the names, addresses and telephone numbers of all witnesses.
• Photograph the accident scene, including all vehicles involved (before repairing) and any visible injuries (e.g., cuts, bruises).
• Talk to no one about the accident or injuries except your doctor or lawyer, especially not an insurance adjuster.
• DO NOT SIGN anything without talking to a personal injury lawyer first. Truthful statements made in an attempt to be helpful can easily be misinterpreted and turned against you.
• Get medical attention immediately and tell your doctors exactly how the injury occurred. Describe all symptoms and complaints.
• Be sure to report memory problems, confusion or disorientation, however minor these things may seem at the time.
