Did you recently experience some type of personal injury? Maybe you fell or someone hit you with their vehicle? What you do immediately after a personal injury matters. Make sure that you are careful about what you do and what you say in the hours and days following your injury. It could make a difference when you have your day in court.
Immediately after a personal injury, you need to do several things. You want to make sure you are safe, and from there, address any injuries anyone has. Here are some of the most important things to do first.
Right after any type of personal injury, you also want to avoid a few things. First, you should avoid apologizing in any way. You never want to admit that any part of the problem was your fault, even if it was. Second, you never want to leave the area. Even if you come back later, leaving is not a good idea. Preservation of the area following the injury is very important, so make sure that you never leave until told to do so by the authorities. Finally, you never want to try and work out any type of a settlement with the accused on your own. It could cost you any type of settlement from the courts later on.
