What to Do After a Truck Accident

Taking these actions may also help your local attorneys build the strongest possible case on your behalf:

  • Contact first responders. Dial 911 to report the accident and stay at the scene until police and first responders arrive.
  • Document the accident. Obtain a copy of the police report, collect witness information, and take photos/videos of the accident scene if you are able to do so.
  • Seek medical attention. Obtain prompt medical attention for your injuries, and keep documentation including your treatment plan, follow-up care, and expenses incurred. Keep all bills and records related to the accident. Even if you think your injuries were relatively minor, being examined by a medical professional is important as it can identify injuries that aren’t immediately apparent.
  • Contact an experienced local truck accident firm. Contact Van Sant Law as soon as you feel up to doing so, to schedule a free initial consultation. We will help you understand your rights and options.
