Get medical attention

Take symptoms seriously and seek appropriate medical care. Health comes before documenting a claim.

Preserve what you safely can

Photographs, report numbers, witness information, property-damage records, and dates may help preserve an accurate account.

Be careful with statements and signatures

Insurance communications can affect a claim. Before providing a recorded statement or signing a release, consider getting legal guidance about your situation.

Keep a simple file

Store medical records, bills, correspondence, photographs, repair information, and a factual timeline together.

Ask about deadlines

Deadlines vary by jurisdiction and case type. Do not rely on one blanket time limit from a website.
