What Exactly Should You Do After a Car Accident?
SHARE

The aftermath of a car accident often involves a stressful waiting game as victims seek the settlement they need to cover medical bills, lost wages, and other expenses. The process can feel excruciatingly slow, especially when immediate financial relief is needed.

The Need for Swift Settlements

Amidst all the chaos of a car accident – the injuries, medical visits, bills, calls from insurance companies, and other collateral events – there’s often an excruciating waiting game that makes the entire aftermath that much more frustrating. We’re talking about the quest for a settlement, which often takes months and months of waiting to play out. 

While there are certain factors that cause cases to draw out, there are also plenty of ways to speed things along if you have the right team and process in place. And the sooner you can get this thing settled, the better.

Delayed settlements can wreak havoc on your financial stability, leaving medical bills unpaid, wages lost, and daily expenses unmet. Beyond the monetary toll, the stressful legal process can be emotionally draining, stretching uncertainty and anxiety to their limits. This makes the search for a swift settlement not just a financial necessity, but also a path to reclaiming peace of mind.

When it’s all said and done, the key to receiving expedited justice lies in taking proactive steps. You have to cut through all of the red tape that exists and fight for your right to move the case along. 

In this article, we’ll focus on some specific ways you can do just that.

3 Steps to Fast-Tracking Your Settlement

Not sure where to begin with speeding up your settlement? Here are several proactive steps that you can take to fast-track the process.

  1. Gather Evidence Right Away

Evidence is crucial in car accident cases. Without it, the case becomes a “he-said-she-said” back and forth argument. And in many situations, car insurance companies will win these cases because of the massive amounts of resources they have at their disposal. Timely and accurate documentation of the accident seen can give your case a significant boost and expedite the settlement process. Here are some suggestions:

  • Use your phone camera to take clear photos and videos of the accident scene from all angles. You’ll want to capture the positions of the vehicles, the damage that was sustained, the road conditions, traffic signals, and any other relevant information you can record.
  • If there are witnesses at the scene, don’t just gather their information. Try to collect statements asking them to describe what they saw. The details will be freshest in the immediate aftermath. (Again, video and audio recordings are great here.)
  • Get a copy of the police report. This will include all pertinent details about the accident and the officer’s assessment of who is at fault.
  • Preserve any physical evidence that you may deem important. These items can act as tangible evidence should the case go to trial.
  1. Seek Out Medical Attention

It’s obviously important to seek out medical attention so that your injuries are treated and your condition is stabilized. However, it also matters for the sake of speeding up your case. Getting treatment establishes a very clear link between the accident and your injuries. This creates a documented paper trail that reinforces the strength of your case. 

When getting treatment, make sure you actually follow the medical advice you’re given. For example, if they tell you to follow up with a specialist, do it. Or if they prescribe medication, take it. A failure to follow medical advice will complicate your case and give the insurance companies something to latch onto. 

  1. Hire an Experienced Car Accident Attorney

Navigating the intricacies of a car accident settlement can be complex and overwhelming, especially when dealing with insurance companies and legal proceedings. Hiring an experienced car accident attorney can be a pivotal decision that not only relieves the burden but also accelerates the settlement process.

When you enlist the services of a skilled car accident attorney, you position yourself for a smoother and expedited settlement process. Your attorney’s knowledge, negotiation skills, and legal acumen all contribute to the successful resolution of your case in a big way. Ultimately, this allows you to focus on your recovery and moving forward.

Move Fast & Don’t Delay

In the immediate aftermath of a car accident, your first priority is obviously to get medical help and ensure you’re in a stable condition. However, after that, your next priority is to get your claim moving along so that you can receive the compensation you deserve to move on with your life. Hopefully, this article has given you some concrete steps you can implement to do just that. Now, go and move forward with confidence!
