What to do after an accident?

What you do if you are involved in an automobile accident? The first thing is to call the police. Secondly is to make sure you get the name of the person who is involved in the accident with you and their license plate number. Next, if you need medical care, make sure you go to the hospital or see a doctor. The next is to make sure you contact your insurance company, advise your agent or the company directly that you’ve been involved in an accident. The next thing to do after that is consult an attorney. You must make sure that you know whether your legal rights have been properly protected, both of you have a claim and someone makes a claim against you.
