Do you know what to do if are suffering a Toledo, Ohio car accident injury?

Make sure to SEEK TREATMENT IMMEDIATELY.


What else do I need to do?

Here are the TOP 10 Steps to Take After an Accident:
1. Seek treatment immediately - The best thing you can do after an accident is to seek medical treatment immediately and follow your doctor's orders.

2. Don't rush to settle your claim - Don't settle your claim before you complete your medical treatment. A few thousand dollars may sound good until you realize it doesn't come close to compensating you for your injuries.

3. Don't underestimate the insurance adjuster - Insurance adjusters have a huge advantage over you because they settle claims every day. You need a lawyer to help deal with them.

4. Don't provide a statement to the adjuster - Don't make any statements about your case until you consult with a lawyer.

5. Don't sign medical authorization forms - Don't sign authorization forms that allow an insurance company access to your private medical records. Only sign forms completed by your lawyer.

6. Document everything - Start a file for all police, medical, and insurance documents related to your case.

7. Honesty is the best policy - Be honest about your injuries. Nothing will kill your claim faster than being caught in a lie.

8. Don't hide information from your lawyer - Your lawyer needs to know the good, the bad, and the ugly about your case to properly represent you.

9. Don't exaggerate your injuries - Exaggerating the extent of your injuries could come back to haunt you if the insurance company films you participating in an activity you shouldn't be able to do.

10. Hire a personal injury lawyer - Insurance companies employ professionals who deal with personal injury cases every day. Shouldn't you?


It is also important to obtain your Accident Report.

Accident Reports can help determine the following information that the insurance company will need:
- Who was driving the cars involved in the accident.
- Identities of the drivers of the vehicles in the car accident.
- Who owns the cars involved.
- Weather conditions at the time of the accident.
- The accident location.
- Specific damage done to all cars involved.
- If there are any passengers in the vehicles.
- Seatbelt use for all parties involved in the wreck and whether or not airbags deployed.
- Any injuries that may have been suffered.
- Whether or not the at-fault driver has insurance, and who that insurance company is.
- The names of any witnesses to the accident.
