1
Seek medical attention within 24 hours
Even if you feel fine. Whiplash, concussions, and internal injuries often do not show symptoms immediately. A medical record from day one protects your case.
2
Document everything at the scene
Photograph all vehicles, road conditions, signage, your injuries, the other driver's license and insurance. Get witness names and phone numbers.
3
Do NOT give a recorded statement
Insurance adjusters work to minimize payouts. Do not give a recorded statement to any insurance company — including your own — without speaking to an attorney first.
4
Know what to ask before hiring any attorney
Not all PI attorneys are the same. InjuryCorner gives you 10 questions every injured person should ask before signing with anyone.
⚠️ Do not post about your accident on social media
Insurance companies monitor social media and will use your posts against you. Say nothing publicly until you have spoken with an attorney.
