Deal with injuries and dangerous situations first.

Make certain that you have obtained medical care proportionate to the damages from the accident. Establishing that no one is in direct physical danger should be the highest priority. If necessary call 911 to obtain immediate medical care.

Call the police.

it is important that police have been called to arrive at the scene of the accident. Obtaining a police report is important to your case because it provides a credible source to document the circumstances of the accident, helps with insurance claims, and ultimately provides a basis for fault.

Document everything in great detail

This should happen at the scene of the accident and after during the healing process. Keep in mind that the more you can document evidence in your case the easier it will be to prove your claims later. Take pictures of your vehicle and injuries, keep a journal of your experiences after the accident, and help keep a paper trail of all receipts, medical bills, time away from work, and out of pocket expenses.
