What To Do After A Car Accident in Cobb County

Hi. I’m Roger Ghai and I want to talk today a little bit about what you should do when you’re involved in a car accident case. You always want to make sure to call the police department and make sure that there is a report actually issued. In addition, if you are hurt, you want to make sure that the police officer knows the fact that you’re hurt on the incident report itself. Furthermore, if there are any witnesses to the accident, you should always try to get all of their names and telephone numbers and basic contact information in case you ever need them as a witness.
If you have been hurt in the car accident case, make sure that you promptly get medical care. If you don’t do so, the insurance company is only going to say that you really weren’t hurt. Also, you want to make sure to take photographs of the accident scene, any physical damage to yourself, as well as any property damage. Even if you don’t feel an immediate onset of pain, you should always be checked out by your own physician or other medical provider. Even if you did not cause the car accident, you always want to contact your own insurance company. If you don’t do so, you could lose valuable legal rights that you have.
