What to Do After a Car Accident, a step-by-step guide from Joel A. Gordon
"Your safety is our priority"
Austin Car Accident Lawyer - Joel A. Gordon
Right after a car accident, your health should come first. If you are injured, seek medical care as soon as possible. Delaying treatment not only puts your well-being at risk but can also affect your ability to pursue a claim. If a hospital or clinic turns you away, visit a 24-hour emergency center without delay. Quick action can protect both your health and your legal case.
After checking for injuries and ensuring all passengers are okay, move your vehicle out of harm’s way if it is safe to do so. Leaving a vehicle in an active roadway can lead to more damage or danger. Once safe, contact an experienced Austin accident attorney to begin protecting your rights right away.
Whether it’s a serious crash or a minor one, always contact 911. For accidents within Austin city limits, an officer from the Austin Police Department will usually respond. They will file an incident report, which can become a key piece of evidence. Officers may not determine fault on the scene, but documenting the accident officially is essential.
If you’re physically able, gather evidence at the scene before it’s cleared. Take photos of vehicle damage, road conditions, license plates, and any visible injuries. Get the contact details of all involved drivers and any witnesses. These early steps often play a critical role in supporting your claim later on.
After an accident, it’s not unusual for the other driver’s insurance company to reach out with a quick settlement offer. These offers are often far below what your case is actually worth. Do not agree to anything or sign documents before speaking with a personal injury lawyer in Austin. Once you sign, you may be waiving your right to full compensation.
