What can I do to protect my interests after a motorcycle accident?
|
| |
- You should report the accident immediately to the police if you have not already done so.
- Any and all witnesses to the accident should be identified by name, address and telephone number. Take photos or videos of the scene and vehicles from as many angles as possible. Photographs showing the damage to your vehicle can be invaluable in assisting us in maximizing your recovery.
- If you require medical treatment, be clear and accurate in what you say about how the accident happened. Also, be sure to give your doctor a complete, accurate and truthful description of how the accident happened, what problems you are having as a result of the accident, and make sure to tell your doctor about all prior similar injuries you may have had.
- You have a duty in Florida to be cooperative with your own insurance company. However, you have no such duty to cooperate or give a recorded statement to the insurance company for the driver who caused the accident.
- If you have suffered lacerations, road rash, bruising, or other injuries, take photographs of your injuries, reflecting the injury and any bandages or braces that may have been placed. Such photographs will become invaluable in establishing your injuries after your injuries have healed.
