Experienced Lawyer who represents those
injured or killed by Automobile Wrecks:

AUTOMOBILE  WRECKS (" or ACCIDENTS as the
insurance industry would call them ").  

Almost all automobile wrecks arise from a choice to
disobey a law.  Choosing to speed, trying to beat a
light, not paying proper attention (messing with a
cellphone, text, radio, or whatever is distracting the
driver).  All these are choices made by drivers to not
pay attention that cause these wrecks.  Choices made
by these drivers to disobey the law.  The laws that
were put in place to keep everyone else safe.  The
insurance industry pushes the term "accident" to
make people feel as though there was nothing that
could be done to avoid what happened.  Nothing
could be farther from the truth.   

Almost all wrecks are the result of someone's
disobeying the law.  The lawsuits resulting from this
disobeying of the law are usually because the person
who disobeyed the law thinks they shouldn't have to
pay for the harms and losses they caused.   

ACTIONS AFTER ACCIDENT:

1.  Remain calm after your automobile accident.

2.  Make sure the police come to the scene and write a report.

3.   Make sure you have all the witness information, and
multiple ways of contacting the witnesses (names, phone(s),
addresses).  

4.  Take photos:  Of scene, of vehicles, of debris on road, of tire
tracks, of people at scene, of injuries, of anything else that you
think an adjuster would need to see to understand how the
accident happened, and what the damages are.  

5.  Get everyone's insurance information.  Names of insurance
company, phone numbers, policy numbers, addresses of
insurance company(s).  

6.  Take care of any injuries.  People are often in shock, and
are more concerned about their vehicle than about
themselves.  Take care of your injuries.  Seek medical
attention, if for nothing else than to put your mind at ease to
verify whether your injury is severe or not.

7.  Get an estimate on your vehicle.  The insurance company
will try to pay as little as possible, so they will always write a
"low" estimate.  Ger an estimate of your own to protect yourself,
and know that you are being given the correct amount of money
to fix your vehicle.
