What to Do After a Car Accident in New York

Being involved in a car accident can be a very scary and confusing experience. It is important to know what to do after you are involved in a car accident in New York. The following are the top five things you should do after a car accident:

  2. Get medical attention. Even if you do not believe you were injured, you should still see a doctor as soon as possible after a car accident. Many injuries may not be apparent right away, but they can become very serious over time.
  3. Get information. You should get the names, addresses, phone numbers, and driver's license numbers of all of the drivers involved in the accident. You should also get the insurance information for all of the drivers involved in the accident.
  4. Take pictures. If you can, you should take pictures of the accident scene, the damage to your vehicle, and any visible injuries you may have suffered.
  5. Call a car accident lawyer. A car accident lawyer can help you recover compensation for your injuries and property damage.
