Auto/Motorcycle/Truck Accidents FAQ
Auto/Motorcycle/Truck Accidents
Getting into an automobile accident can cause emotional, physical, and financial harm. An accident is usually caused by someone else's negligence, and that is why there are laws to protect those people who are injured in such accidents. In order to help preserve your rights, you should contact a lawyer. The attorneys at the Baird Law Group will work hard to make sure that your case is properly evaluated and handled.
Getting into an auto accident is very stressful, and rational thinking is necessary in order to protect yourself and your property. Some of the steps you can take in order to increase your chances for financial recovery are:
- Insist that a report for the car or motorcycle accident is filed with the local police/sheriff or Florida Highway Patrol
- Document as much as you can about the automobile accident or injury itself. We will need to know every detail about your injuries, any other losses (such as wages) you have suffered as a result of the accident, and any conversation you had with anyone involved in the accident.
- Talk to no one about the automobile accident or injuries other than your attorney or physician. You especially do not want to speak with an insurance adjuster. We will be happy to assist you.
- Be sure to take photos of the accident scene, including any visible injuries and the vehicles involved.
- Get the contact information of anyone who witnessed the accident who may be able to prove your case.
- Immediately seek medical attention following an auto accident. Be sure to explain how the injuries occurred to your doctor or surgeon. Mention any sensations of disorientation, confusion, memory lapses, or other conditions you have sustained.
