What Steps Can I Take to Strengthen My Personal Injury Case?
Accident victims assume that filing a personal injury claim is a fairly straightforward process. Unfortunately, this is not the case in most situations. A dispute can arise at any time in the proceedings and derail your entire case. Even if you have strong evidence to prove fault, there is no guarantee that the insurance carrier will cooperate and pay the fair value that you deserve to settle the claim.

In order to strengthen your personal injury case and make sure you get the full compensation that you deserve, you should consider taking the following steps after an accident:

  • Seek Immediate Medical Help. It is important to get medical attention immediately after the accident. Regardless of how minor your injury seems, getting an evaluation right away is important if you intent to file a personal injury claim. Without official documentation of your injuries and symptoms, it will be difficult to link the injuries to the accident and prove the severity.
  • Preserve Evidence. Every piece of evidence can play a critical role in proving liability or damages. As such, it is important to preserve every piece of evidence and present it to your personal injury attorney as soon as possible.
  • Do Not Speak to the Insurance Company. It is best not to speak with any representative who may contact you from the liable party’s insurance carrier without the presence of your attorney. Any information you provide can be taken out of context and damage your claim.
  • Consult with and Hire a Los Angeles Personal Injury Attorney. The guidance of an experienced personal injury attorney can help you avoid critical mistakes that would result in unnecessary disputes, delays, and complications. The sooner your attorney investigates your case, the better in getting you the justice that you deserve.

Common Types of Compensation in a Personal Injury Claim
There are generally two types of compensation available in most personal injury claims:

general and special damages. Special damages are any type of expenses that you can prove, such as medical bills. General damages are those that cannot be proven with invoices or bills, such as emotional distress.

Depending on the specific facts of your case, you may be entitled to the following types of compensation as part of your personal injury claim:

  • Past and future medical expenses
  • Lost wages
  • Loss of future earning capacity
  • Property loss
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress and trauma
  • Wrongful death (funeral and burial expenses, loss of companionship, etc.)
  • Out of pocket expenses related to your claim
