Motor Vehicle Accidents
If I am in a car accident, when do I need to talk to an attorney?
The sooner, the better. You need to be aware of your rights as soon as possible. The insurance company will want a statement from you, medical releases and could ask you to submit to an examination by the insurance company's physician.
You may have questions as well regarding who is responsible for the bills, how your insurance benefits come into play, and how to obtain a fair settlement of your car damage.
It is important that you get the individualized attention that you deserve for you.
