An attorney may not be the first person that comes to mind to contact after
a car crash. At the scene, it may be more important to call 911 and summon
medical help or contact family members and let them know what happened.
After you have taken care of all urgent and potentially life-threatening
issues, contact an attorney. The sooner you get in touch with an attorney,
the sooner you can get advice on how to protect your rights, how to act
quickly to preserve evidence, and how to put yourself in the best position
possible to recover compensation for your injuries. The longer you wait
to take action, the greater potential there is for costly errors or roadblocks
to arise in your case.
