Common FAQs About Auto Accidents
What should I do immediately after an auto accident?
Ensure your safety and that of others, call 911 to report the accident, seek medical attention even if you feel fine, exchange information with all parties involved, document the scene with photos, and gather witness information if possible.
Should I call the police after an auto accident?
Yes, you should always call the police after an auto accident. A police report provides an official record of the incident, which can be crucial for insurance claims and legal proceedings.
What information should I exchange with the other driver?
Exchange names, contact information, driver’s license numbers, insurance details, vehicle registration information, and license plate numbers with the other driver(s) involved in the accident.
What if the other driver’s insurance company contacts me?
If the other driver’s insurance company contacts you, it’s best to avoid providing any statements or accepting any settlement offers without first consulting with your own insurance company or an auto accident lawyer.
How is fault determined in an auto accident?
Fault in an auto accident is determined through an investigation that considers police reports, witness statements, traffic laws, and evidence from the accident scene. Insurance companies and, if necessary, the courts will make the final determination.
What types of compensation can I receive after an auto accident?
You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, property damage, and other costs related to the accident. The exact amount and types of compensation depend on the specifics of your case.
How long do I have to file a claim after an auto accident?
The statute of limitations for filing an auto accident claim varies by state. In many states, including New Hampshire, you typically have three years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim. However, it’s important to consult with a lawyer to understand the specific deadlines in your case.
What if the other driver doesn't have insurance?
If the other driver is uninsured or underinsured, you may still be able to recover compensation through your own insurance policy, particularly if you have uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage. An auto accident lawyer can guide you through this process.
When should I contact an auto accident lawyer?
You should contact an auto accident lawyer as soon as possible after the accident. Early involvement allows your lawyer to gather crucial evidence and handle communications with insurance companies on your behalf.
