Well the first thing you need to do of course is call for help. Notify the police if someone’s injured, call 911 and ask for an ambulance or for medical care, a first responder. Then you should cooperate with the investigation by the police. After that’s happened you need to take some time to kind of assess the situation and determine whether or not you need to see a lawyer. Not everyone who’s in an accident or a car wreck which is what most people think of in terms of an accident that might require the need of a lawyer. Not everyone who’s injured in that type of accident or involved in that type of accident needs a lawyer but if you have serious damage to your car or have suffered an injury that require medical care then you almost certainly need to call an injury lawyer and at least consult with that lawyer as what to do next.
