How Can an Attorney Help After a Car Accident?

If you’ve been involved in a car accident, your first instinct is likely to make sure everyone in the vehicle is unhurt. After you confirm the safety of yourself and your passengers, a variety of questions and concerns may flood your mind about the state of your vehicle, insurance issues or what to do next. A lawyer can step in after an accident to help you with these questions (and more) in the following ways:

  • Explaining your rights: An experienced attorney who focuses on auto accident and personal injury law will be able to explain all of your rights to you and help you arrive at the best course of action. There are many laws and regulations surrounding auto accidents that may affect your case, and your lawyer will have knowledge of any specific rules, deadlines or exceptions pertaining to your accident. Working with an attorney also means you can file a lawsuit if you believe another party is liable for your accident or injuries.
  • Assisting with the work: Attorneys are experienced in the hefty amounts of work associated with reaching insurance settlements and filing a claim or lawsuit. A lawyer can also help you gather evidence including police reports, statements from witnesses, medical records and proof of lost wages stemming from your accident. If you or a loved one was injured in your accident, it can be especially helpful to have an attorney guide you through legal processes so that you can focus more of your energy on recovery.
  • Fighting for your rights: Throughout the entire legal process following your car accident, your attorney will advocate on your behalf. Your lawyer will help you negotiate your claim with your insurance company and, if need be, he or she will argue for your rights in court. Having a lawyer means you are not alone in working toward a fair outcome to your case.
