TOP 3 REASONS You Need to Quickly Contact a Medical Malpractice Lawyer
EARLY INVESTIGATION If you have been injured in a car accident, early investigation can be critical. Preserving evidence at the scene of the accident by arranging for the skid marks, tire marks and other physical evidence to be photographed and perhaps impounded, can impact your ability to best prove your claim and to obtain the full compensation to which you are entitled.
WITNESSES Eyewitnesses are often key in proving who is at fault for the happening of an accident. It is important to obtain their contact information at the scene of the accident. However, it is equally important to immediately contact them and obtain a statement before they move, change phone numbers or get a new email address. Also, t the more time that passes between the happening of the accident and the interview of an eyewitness, the more difficult it may become to contact them and fully protect one’s rights.
DEALING WITH INSURANCE ADJUSTERS It generally takes less than 48 hours for an insurance adjuster to contact you after an accident. Insurance adjusters have their own agenda and do not necessarily have your best interest in mind. They often will record statements and may hold you to something you say during the immediate aftermath of an accident which may not necessarily be accurate at the time that the statement is being given.
