Steps to Take Following a Car AccidentTrying to figure out what to do immediately following a car accident can be difficult because of the shock that typically accompanies such traumatic experiences. Below you will see some initial suggestions of what to do following your car accident.
- Get to a Safe Location – It is extremely important that you find a safe location as quickly as possible after an accident. Sometimes it is best to stay in your vehicle, while other times it is best to quickly move to a different location. Once safe, you should call 911 to contact emergency services to assist with the accident. Paramedics and firefighters can help with injuries while the police will collect relevant information from all the parties involved in the accident to create an accident report. This report will be important to your case as you seek financial recovery.
Contact a Lawyer – Important evidence from your accident can quickly disappear when not documented properly. Our experienced Pacific Palisades car accident lawyers will do all the hard work in collecting your evidence so that you don’t have to worry about anything. We will take pictures of your car, the scene of the accident, and acquire your accident report from the local police department. Where appropriate, we will use one of our accident specialists to assist us in identifying who was at fault for the accident.
If one of the parties involved in the accident (including yourself) doesn’t have enough insurance coverage to pay for the costs of the accident, we can still help you to recover financially for costs that you incurred because of the accident. We know that there are various ways to seek financial compensation following an accident and our attorneys will advise you on the best one to pursue based on your specific circumstances.

Another reason it is important to quickly contact one of our expert Pacific Palisades car accident lawyers following your accident is related to California’s Statute of Limitations. This law limits most victims of car accident injuries to a period of two years that they have to file a claim seeking financial compensation from the party responsible for the accident. While two years seems like a long time, it goes by extremely fast, especially when you are focused on healing physically, mentally, and emotionally. It is also in your best interest to file your claim quickly so that you can recover faster financially.
- Seek Additional Medical Attention – Most injuries from car accidents need repeated medical attention to completely heal. Some of these injuries can never be healed completely, but require rehabilitation to try and get back in to a normal routine. Seeking medical attention is important early in your case because the costs that you incur from the accident will be part of the financial compensation that you seek form the at-fault party from the accident.
