What should I do after my car crash?

It’s important to take certain steps after an accident to protect your rights and your health. While each crash often presents its own unique challenges, here are some of the suggested steps to take immediately afterwards:

  • Call the police – Ask them to respond to your crash. Having an official accident report can often make a dramatic difference in the outcome of your case.
  • Seek medical attention – Your health and well-being should be your priority. Make sure you have a medical professional examine you right away after your crash. If your accident took place several hours or days ago, have a doctor examine you immediately. You could have a life-threatening injury.
  • Take pictures of the crash site – If it’s safe to do so, take pictures of your crash. This evidence can often help build a strong case in support of your injury claim.
  • Get the other driver’s personal information – If you’re healthy enough to do so, get their full name, address, driver’s license and insurance information. Feel free to give the same information to the other driver as well.
  • Don’t discuss your crash – After exchanging information with the other driver, don’t discuss your collision. Anything you say could later be used by the at-fault driver’s insurance company to reduce or deny your claim.
  • Call a lawyer – The sooner you talk to an attorney who knows how to handle accidents in Oklahoma City, the better. There are so many different legal issues you often need to consider after a crash. A knowledgeable lawyer can help you every step of the way.

How much is my case worth?

This is the one of the most frequently asked questions people often have after a serious car crash. Expenses can add up fast. That’s why it’s important that you receive the compensation you deserve for all your expenses.

The value of your injury claim often depends on many different factors, including:

  • Severity of your injury
  • Length of your recovery
  • Whether you can return to work

Based on these important factors – and many others – the value of your case could range from a few thousand to millions of dollars. The bottom line is you can and should be compensated for all your injury-related expenses, whether they’re immediately after your crash or years from now. You should not have to pay for another driver’s reckless or negligent behavior.

Should I file a lawsuit or an injury claim?

There are advantages to both strategies depending on the circumstances of your case. Many injured drivers or passengers begin by filing an injury claim and seeking a settlement from the at-fault driver’s insurance company.

However, this approach may not work in certain cases. Sometimes, it’s because the insurance company makes a lowball settlement offer that doesn’t even come close to covering all your expenses. Other times, they might deny your claim altogether.

In such cases, filing a lawsuit against the at-fault driver’s insurance company may be the best way to demand the money you deserve. Just remember that you only have two years from the date of your crash to file a lawsuit or take other legal action under Oklahoma law.
