What You Should Bring When Meeting with Your Dade City Car Accident Attorney

At your first meeting with your auto accident lawyer it is important to make sure you bring along as many documents as possible to help prove your claim. While your accident may seem simple and straightforward, strong evidence supporting your claim may still be needed. Any evidence you have can help your attorney better understand your case and guide you in the right direction.

When you meet with an auto accident attorney for a consultation, try and bring along the following documents and information:

  1. Accident Reports. Accident reports from the police and any witnesses are essential for your attorney to view in order to evaluate your case. These reports often share details that your car accident attorney needs to be aware of to determine liability and how much compensation you should pursue for damages.
  2. Medical Reports. When you are in a car accident and have suffered an injury, even if it seems minor, you should get checked out by a medical professional as soon as possible. A doctor can file a report outlining the extent of your injury and what the appropriate treatment entails. By bringing along these reports to the first meeting, your attorney can determine the most proactive way to proceed with your claim.
  3. Any and All Medical Bills. Bring copies of any medical expenses you have incurred as a result of the accident. This includes examinations, tests, medications, physical therapy and any other types of treatments. These documents can help your lawyer decide how much compensation to seek on your behalf.
  4. Photos of your Injuries and/or the Accident Site. If you have any pictures of the crash site after the accident or of your injuries, bring them along when you meet with your car accident attorney. These can help prove your innocence and further prove who was responsible for the accident.
  5. Your Auto Insurance Policy. This can notify your injury attorney of the type of insurance you have and what you are entitled to in the event of an accident.
  6. Insurance Payment Information. This just lets your attorney see that your premiums were paid in a timely manner and that you were covered when the accident occurred. If you have any notes regarding communications with your insurance company, these can also help.
  7. Any Information you have about the Person that caused your Accident. Any knowledge you have about the other party involved in the accident is helpful. This can include the other driver’s name, address, phone number and insurance coverage.

The more information you can give to your attorney, the better equipped they will be in assessing the full and fair value of your injury claim. When you have an appointment with an attorney for a consultation after a car accident, you should always bring as much information and evidence with you as possible so to that your attorney can get a better understanding of the circumstances surrounding your case.
