What to Do After a Serious Accident in Georgia
Dealing with the aftermath of a serious accident is never easy. An injury can change your entire life within the blink of an eye. The death of a loved one certainly will as well. It is normal to feel stressed out, confused, and altogether overwhelmed by everything that you are facing. Knowing what to do immediately after an accident can make a big difference. Here are five steps to take if you or your loved one is injured in Georgia:
- Seek Immediate Medical Attention: After a serious accident, prioritize your health and safety. Seek medical attention immediately, even if you think your injuries are minor. Some symptoms may not appear right away.
- Report the Accident: Be sure to report the accident. Motor vehicle collisions should always be reported to state or local law enforcement in Georgia. Other types of accidents—such as a slip and fall at a business—should be reported to the property owner.
- Gather Relevant Evidence: Collect as much evidence as possible from the accident scene. Take photographs. To bring a successful personal injury claim in Georgia, you need to be able to prove fault. The more evidence that you have, the better positioned you will be to establish liability.
- Beware of Insurance Adjusters: Insurance adjusters may try to settle your claim quickly and for a lower amount than you deserve. The insurance company wants to resolve your case for less—and they will use your words against you in the claims process.
- Consult With a Top Georgia Injury Attorney: The right legal advocate on your side can make the difference. Speak to an experienced Georgia personal injury lawyer as soon as possible after a serious accident. Free consultations are available.
