Rochester Car Accident Lawyers
If you have been involved in a car accident, whether as the driver or passenger, you may be shaken up, injured and unsure of what to do next. The first and most important thing you should do is seek medical care for any injuries you may have sustained. Then, call Kammholz Messina, LLP, at 877-668-4606. We will guide you through the steps you need to take to ensure that you receive the compensation you deserve following a car crash.
What to Do at the Accident Scene
Following the accident, write down the names of the other drivers and any witnesses that are present. Keep any documents that you receive from law enforcement or the other driver(s), including police reports and insurance information. Take photos of the accident scene and your vehicle if possible.
After you have received appropriate medical care, give Kammholz Messina, LLP, a call so that we can immediately begin an investigation at the scene of the accident. It is important to conduct the investigation while the evidence is intact and memories of the accident are still fresh in the minds of the witnesses. Additionally, New York no-fault laws require you to file a car accident claim within 30 days of the accident, so you must act quickly.
Our New York car crash attorneys will find out what caused the accident and work to get fair and full compensation on your behalf. We have experience handling all types of complex car accidents, from drunk driving accidents to teenage driving accidents.
Do Not Speak to the Insurance Company
After the accident, you may receive phone calls from your insurance company or the negligent driver's insurance company asking you for a recorded or written statement. It is important that you do not give a statement to anyone before first speaking to a knowledgeable attorney about your rights and options.
Our attorneys understand how insurance companies operate. We will work with both your insurance company and the negligent driver's insurance company to secure you the maximum compensation for your injuries, lost wages and daily living costs.
