Q.  "What should I do if I am injured in a motor vehicle accident and I was not at fault?"

 - It is important that you identify any eye witnesses to the accident and get their contact information as their statement may be very helpful in pursuing your claim.

- If you believe that you are injured, wait for an ambulance or seek medical attention as soon as   possible. 

 - If the police have not been called to the scene, be sure to file a police report within 24 hours.

 - It is advisable that you not sign any releases, or talk to an insurance investigator before you have talked with an attorney.

 - You should not accept any settlement offers from an insurance company soon after the accident as you will need sufficient time to determine the extent of your injuries, how long your recovery will take, what the long term effects of your injuries will be and the costs of your medical care. 

 - Take pictures of any damage to your vehicle and any visible injuries to your person.

 - It is important that you continue to obtain medical treatment.
