Document the accident
Photos, police report, witness details, insurance information, medical visits and repair estimates matter.
Do not rush settlement

Many personal injury lawyers use contingency fees, but scope, costs and case fit vary.
Watch limitation deadlines
Claim deadlines and lawsuit limitation periods vary by state and facts.
Use a consultation checklist
A prepared timeline helps a lawyer or insurance advisor assess the matter faster.
