What Should You Do After a Car Accident in Monroe, Louisiana?

In the moments following a car accident, it’s hard to think clearly. The trauma and heightened emotions alone are enough to make you overlook certain aspects of the accident that could cost you the compensation you need and deserve. Here is what to do after a car accident: 

Make Sure Everyone Is Safe 

Check yourself for injuries, then check on the other passengers in your car. Call 911 or ask a bystander to call for help if anyone is hurt.

Assess the Scene and Exchange Information

If you and everyone else in your car are safe, it’s time to assess the situation while also taking measures to protect your rights. You need to: 

  • Take pictures of the scene
  • Move to safety
  • Exchange contacts and auto insurance information with the other driver 

Call The Police

No matter how minor the accident seems, it’s always a good idea to call the police. It’s even legally required in some states. The responding officers will document the scene and fill out an accident report. The latter comes in handy when filing a claim with your insurance. 

Notify Your Insurance Company

You should notify your insurance provider of the accident while still at the scene. They can tell you what they need to process your claim. Some insurance providers can even arrange for your vehicle to be towed if it is extensively damaged.

Call an Attorney 

Even if the accident seems minor, you never know what repercussions may arise. The human body is full of protective adrenaline after a car accident, and injuries are often not realized until at least 24 hours after the accident when the body has had an opportunity to relax. Also, though the insurance company may at first portray that they will pay for any damages without a fuss, they do not always have the individual’s best interests in mind. You should ensure you are protected by calling Creed & Creed Law.
