Being in a car accident can be stressful and confusing. Knowing what steps to take immediately after can protect your health and strengthen your legal claim. The first and most important step is seeking medical attention, even if injuries seem minor. Next, document the scene with photos, gather witness statements, and exchange contact and insurance information with the other driver. Avoid admitting fault at the scene and do not sign anything from the insurance company without legal advice. Contacting an experienced car accident lawyer early ensures your rights are protected and increases your chances of fair compensation. A lawyer can handle negotiations, paperwork, and court representation while you focus on recovery.
