Car accidents are traumatic, terrifying events. Adrenaline is racing through your body, and your emotions are running high. In this environment, knowing what steps to take after a wreck can save your life and protect your legal claims.
Unfortunately, many people don’t call the police after a crash because they don’t think it was “that bad” of an accident. However, it’s always a good idea to call the police — the responding officer’s report is a valuable piece of evidence that preserves a wealth of information and details about the scene that would otherwise be lost. If you or another person is hurt, call 911 right away and make sure they receive medical attention.
If you can preserve evidence at the scene of the crash, don’t hesitate to take advantage of the opportunity to so. If it’s safe and you’re able:
No matter how badly you think you’re hurt (or not), it’s always a good idea to get checked out by a doctor after a crash. We strongly recommend victims visiting the emergency room, urgent care, or making an appointment with their primary care physician as soon as they are able. A doctor can help you identify hidden injuries like internal bleeding or cracked ribs that might go unnoticed and cause a great deal of pain, suffering, and expense down the road.
With over 30 years of experience fighting for Alabama crash victims, we have a proven track record and formidable reputation of getting people through complicated litigation and settlement processes, helping keep bills organized, capturing critical pieces of evidence, and recovering financial compensation.

We believe that every victim deserves the right to live a happy, healthy life after a crash. However, many innocent people damage their claims without realizing it, putting their right to compensation at risk. Avoid these common mistakes to give yourself the best shot possible.
It’s a natural urge to apologize after an accident, even if it wasn’t your fault. But that apology could be used against you. Under Alabama law, if a wreck is even 1% your fault, you are not eligible for compensation. If you need to talk to the other driver after the crash, ask if they’re alright, need medical care, or offer to call first responders instead of saying, “Sorry!” or “I didn’t see you!”
Sometimes, car accident injuries take time to develop. For example, you may not realize you have a herniated disc in your back for days or even weeks after a crash. If your symptoms change or worsen, follow up with your doctor.
Sometimes, car accident victims avoid treatment, thinking that it’s a sign of weakness or that they can’t afford more medical bills. There’s nothing shameful or weak about getting medical attention! When you’re hurting physically or emotionally, it’s always in your best interest to get help. And, if you’re worried about paying for the cost of your care, you can include these bills in your injury claim.
Insurance companies frequently offer low settlements and bully unrepresented victims into accepting them. This is never OK. The insurance company won’t tell you the true value of your claim, and will do everything it can to get you to settle quickly. You should always have an injury lawyer review documents before you sign or agree to anything.
When you need to piece your life back together, it’s time to call Andy Citrin Injury Attorneys. Our experienced personal injury lawyers can help you recover financial compensation for:
