Frequently Asked

After an Accident

What should I do if I’ve just had an accident or injury?

Accidents are always a surprise, and usually very chaotic. We recommend that you prepare yourself and be ready to do a few simple things immediately after an accident:

‍Call the police, and an ambulance if necessary. Even if you’re not hurt, it’s important for insurance purposes to have a police report of the accident.

‍Take pictures. You probably have a smartphone, so make sure you snap some photos of the accident scene, your vehicle, and if necessary, your injuries. Your photos could be useful for insurance purposes.

‍Call your insurance provider. Your insurance provider has processes for auto accidents. Make sure you notify them as soon as possible following your accident so they can begin working for you.

‍Call us and make an appointment. Even if you are unsure about the extent of your injuries, or if you are injured at all, you still need to get checked out by a doctor. Some injuries develop over time and are not instantly noticeable.

If an accident seems minor and someone doesn’t feel pain right away, should they still the police?
