What to do after an Accident

• Before anything else, seek medical attention if you have been hurt.
• Get to a safe place to prevent further damage or injury.
• Collect as much information as possible: insurance and contact information of people involved in the accident, pictures/videos of vehicles involved, etc.
• File a police report or incident report by calling 911.
• Hire an experienced personal injury attorney from Sweet Lawyers.

The most valuable step you can take in response to a vehicle crash is hiring a personal injury attorney.
