  2. Ariel Law Group What should you do after meeting an accident? Any personal law attorney onpersonal injury claims will tell you to go back to the scene of the accident as soon as possible. • What to do upon coming back to the scene? Legal experts handing personal injury cases say that it is important for victims to go back to the site where they encountered the accident and evaluate what caused the accident. Some people will find the culprit, which they missed during the unfortunate moment. They may also find people who saw the incident.

  3. Ariel Law Group • Take pictures of the accident site. It seems silly to take a camera with you to the site and start taking photos as soon as you get there. But according to lawyers, that is one way of getting evidence that can be presented to the court. The property owner may fix the area before the investigators arrived. If you took pictures on your own, you can present those pictures as evidence that the area was neglected and that neglect gave rise to hazardous conditions.

  4. Ariel Law Group • It is wise to go back to the accident site at the same day and time of the accident. Photos or videos can provide evidence of what the situation was at the same time of the incident, especially if it was a car accident. • Establish who was at fault. Many accidents are caused either by the recklessness of the victim or by the negligence of the offender. The offender may not be necessarily at the scene. The offender can be someone responsible for the accident due to neglect of their property, making it unsafe for walkers. Signs of property neglect include broken window panes, pavement cracks, or loose fixtures.

  5. Ariel Law Group • Establish the extent of the damage and injury. Get a medical exam that will be used as evidence in establishing how serious the injury is. In case of car collision, take pictures of your car to show much damage has been sustained. Take pictures of anything that can prove how serious the accident was. Courts as well as insurance companies are interested in these pieces of evidence.

  6. Ariel Law Group • Search for witnesses. It is vital to have witnesses because they provide a picture of the incident from their own perspective. Witnesses describe things that occurred during the accident and will therefore be able to help determine who was responsible for the mishap. It is very important that witnesses are sought as soon as possible. If it is possible to get witnesses on the same day of the incident, do so.
