1. What should I do after an auto accident?
Following an auto or motorcycle accident, it is very important to call the police and seek medical treatment. Once it is safe to do so, and ideally, before the cars are moved, take lots of pictures of the cars and the scene. It is not unusual to feel no initial pain and then experience pain several hours, or even days, later from the shock and adrenaline of the accident. It is important to seek medical treatment in the first 14 days following an auto accident or your auto insurance can deny payments of your medical bills. It is very important to contact an attorney for legal advice before you speak to the insurance companies. If you’ve been in an auto accident call Law Office of Mark A.
