Injured in a Carroll County Car Accident?
Carroll County automobile accidents are sudden, unexpected and often result in serious and long-term injuries and inconvenience.
Call the police and seek medical attention right away.
Be sure to get the police report number so you can obtain a copy of it later. Failure to seek medical attention within a reasonable time following your injury may later be used to suggest that you were not injured badly or at all. Keep all appointments with your doctor and strictly follow your doctor’s advice. Keep a diary of how you are feeling and how your injuries impact your daily activities.
Document what happened.
Get the contact information of anyone who witnessed the accident. Be sure to take pictures of the accident site and the vehicles involved. Get the contact and insurance information of the other drivers involved in the accident. Write down everything you remember about how the accident happened, including what others involved in the accident said to you at the scene. Take pictures of your injuries. Have someone do these things for you if your injuries keep you from doing any of them yourself. Click here for tips on documenting a Maryland car accident.
Call Albers & Associates after your accident.
Do not speak to the other driver’s insurance company or attorney. Do not sign any documents. Do not give recorded statements. Trying to represent yourself before contacting an attorney may cause you more harm in the long run and will not save you money!
