Glen Allen Car Accident Lawyers
Do I Need A Lawyer After A Car Accident?
On average, 179 people per day are hurt in Virginia car accidents. The good news is that most of them are not serious. However, that is small comfort if you are among those suffering a severe injury from an auto accident– caused by the negligence of another driver. Not only are you in pain and struggling to recover, but you do not know when you can return to work, or even if you can ever work again. Besides the physical injuries to your body, your finances and your family’s welfare are also affected.
A Glen Allen car accident attorney at Rutter Mills can help you receive the maximum compensation for your injuries. While 95 percent of cases are settled, we will go to court when warranted.
Damages For A Glen Allen Car Accident
In Virginia, damages, or compensation, for car accidents may include:
- Medical expenses, current, and future
- Lost wages
- Loss of future earning capacity
- Property damage
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
A Glen Allen car accident lawyer will negotiate with the insurance company for a fair settlement based on individual client circumstances. A seasoned attorney knows the amount of compensation necessary for their client’s present and long-term needs and will not back down.
What To Do After A Car Accident
If possible, use your smartphone to photograph or video the accident scene including all vehicles involved, the road conditions, any skid or other marks relating to the accident, and your injuries.
Be sure to get the insurance and contact information of the other driver and the contact information of any witnesses. Even if the police arrive and write an accident report, it is always better to have the information after an accident. It can take days or weeks to get a hold of an accident report from your local police department.
Always seek immediate medical attention, even if you do not initially think you were badly hurt. Some car accident injuries are not apparent right away. Failure to go to the emergency room or doctor promptly after an accident can cause the insurance company to claim your injuries are not serious or that some other incident is responsible for them.
After an accident, avoid posting about your injuries or accident on social media. Know that anything you post can be used against you in court so think about what you share or consult your attorney before you post.
