ACCIDENTS
Paris & Chaikin, PLLC looks forward to providing you with the proper
counseling you will need in moving forward with your motor vehicle
accident claim.
We represent drivers, passengers, pedestrians and bicyclists who
have been injured as a result of a motor vehicle accident. Accidents
involving motor vehicles account for more deaths and injuries than
all natural disasters combined. If you are in a motor vehicle accident,
you should immediately seek proper medical attention. Seeking immediate
medical attention not only ensures your health but also helps in
documenting the injuries you sustained as a result of an accident.
If police officers are not dispatched to the scene of the accident,
you should try to obtain the license plate numbers of all vehicles
involved in the accident, the name and address of the driver and
owner of the vehicle and the name of their insurance company including
the policy number if possible. It is wise to refrain from entering
into any conversation with the other driver(s). Statements you make
may be used against you. DO NOT APOLOGIZE FOR ANYTHING OR ADMIT
ANY FAULT.
Following an accident you should take photographs of any damage
to your vehicle and other property, your physical injuries if they
are apparent as well as the accident scene. Take notes on how the
accident occurred and any statements the other parties made. If
your accident takes place in a dark area, immediately call the police
and do not exit your vehicle until they arrive.
If you were involved in an accident, you should act fast. The attorneys
at Paris & Chaikin, PLLC, are available to answer your questions.
Consultations are free with no obligations. CALL OUR FIRM TODAY
