If you have been injured due to the negligent, careless, or intentional action of another party, you may be entitled to compensation for your losses and suffering.
But you have only one opportunity to obtain this compensation. To preserve your rights to compensation, you need to take some simple steps:
1.) Get the names and phone numbers of witnesses to the event.
2.) Preserve as much evidence as possible.
If the injury resulted from a defective product, do not repair or discard the product.
If your injury resulted from a serious auto accident, SUV accident, truck accident, or motorcycle accident, do not scrap your vehicle.
3.) If possible, take pictures of the scene. Even if they are made with a cell phone, they may provide critical clues as to what really happened.
4.) Memories of an event can fade with time, even when it is sudden and shocking. As soon as possible, write down your recollection of the events which led to the injury. If family members or friends were present, ask them to do the same.
5.) Do not talk with an insurance adjuster or other insurance company representative before you have spoken with a knowledgeable personal injury lawyer.
