You can do several things to lay a solid foundation for your case.
Hang onto any documents that could be relevant to your case, such as receipts for out-of-pocket expenses related to your injuries.
Get the medical care you need and follow your doctor’s orders.
Know that you or your lawyer can negotiate a settlement – and you don’t need to take the first offer you receive.
Decline to make a recorded statement if an insurance adjuster requests your comment about the incident.
