Car accident claim process

Processing car accident claims can be very involved and complex, it is advisable to have an experienced compensation lawyer onside to help you through the process. This generally involves a series of steps:

1. Report the accident: Report the accident to the police, and make sure to gather all the necessary information, such as the names, addresses, and contact numbers of all the drivers involved, the names and contact information of witnesses, and the licence plate numbers of all the vehicles involved.
2. Seek medical attention: Seek medical attention as soon as possible after the accident, even if you do not think you were seriously injured. This is important as some injuries may not become apparent until later.

Document the accident: Take photos of the damage to the vehicles, the road conditions, and any other relevant details. Keep a record of all medical expenses, such as doctor’s visits and prescription costs.
