Litigation as a Last Resort

4 Tips for Victims of Car Accidents Seeking Compensation 

Taking the right steps immediately after a car accident greatly impacts the outcome of any insurance claims or legal actions you might need to pursue. The following are essential tips for victims of car accidents:

1. Ensure Safety First, and Call Emergency Services

Immediately after the accident, check yourself and others for injuries. If it’s safe and you are able to, you should move vehicles out of traffic to avoid further accidents. Even if the accident appears minor, it’s crucial to call 911. Reporting an accident that results in bodily injury, death, or property damage valued at over $1000 is required by Texas law, and not doing so may result in a fine of $1,000 or more. 

Police will document the scene, and if there are any injuries, medical personnel will provide necessary care.

2. Notify Your Insurance Company

Notify your insurance company as soon as you are able. Be truthful about the details, but avoid admitting fault or giving more information than necessary, as this could be used against you in the claims process.

3. Avoid Quick Settlement Offers

Insurance adjusters may offer a quick settlement to close the case cost-effectively. Before accepting any offers, ensure you know the full extent of your damages and consult with attorney Chaile Allen, as prematurely settling may prevent you from receiving full compensation.

4. Consult with a Lawyer

Especially in cases involving significant damages, injuries, or when fault is contested, consulting with Chaile Allen can be beneficial. Chaile provides guidance on your legal rights and options and helps navigate the complex claims process or litigation.
