So you’ve been involved in a car accident in Massachusetts and you’re wondering what to do first. So let’s imagine that the car accident just happened. Bam! You got rear-ended. What do you do first? Of course, dial 911. You want to make sure that the police come to the scene. And before they get there, you don’t want to move the vehicles. You want to make sure when they arrive, the scene is as it was when the accident happened. That way they’re documenting and helps prove who was at fault for the accident. Now, if you’re not injured, you can get out of the vehicle, take pictures of the defendant’s car, take pictures of your car, take pictures that show the location of all the vehicles because the defendant might move his vehicle. And if he’s going to, you can prove where the cars were before the accident or as the accident occurred, right? Before the police officer gets there. Next, what do you do if you’re injured? Don’t get out of the car. Make sure a rescue is on its way. When you dial 911, you say, I’m injured and I need a rescue. Then let the rescue take you to the hospital. So we’ve handled the immediacy of the scene and the accident itself. What do you do next? You call my law firm. Why? Because we need to begin the investigation. We want to make sure that we get the witnesses, we get the police report, we get an accident reconstruction done if we need one. We handle everything to make sure that you win.
