Motor Vehicle Accident

My uncle was injured in a motor vehicle accident. He filed a lawsuit against the responsible party, but was only partly compensated because of a lack of proper documentation. What are some important things that need to be done immediately following a motor vehicle accident?

To protect your health and legal rights following a motor vehicle accident,here are some important steps that you can take:
·         If you have sustained any injuries, seek immediate medical help, even if the injuries appear to be minor. In addition to the treatment, a medical treatment can also provide documentation of your injuries and be used as evidence.
·         Document every aspect of the accident scene. Obtain photographic evidence of the scene and gather other important information, such as name, address and other contact details of the other driver, witnesses and responding officers.
·         Call the police even if no one is injured and there is limited property damage. Having a police report will be helpful while dealing with insurance companies.

·         Notify your insurance company about the accident and the extent of your injuries.

  2. Two days back, my father was injured in a motor vehicle accident in New York. He has suffered serious injuries and a leg fracture. He is thinking of filing a claim without the help of a lawyer. Do you think he should do it by himself or should he hire a lawyer?
