Diamond and Diamond Personal Injury Lawyers Specialize in Car Accidents
The trauma surrounding a car accident is overwhelming for anybody involved. Every year far too many Ontarians are injured or killed in car accidents, many of which are preventable. While an accident is likely to leave victims in a state of shock and confusion, it is important to understand that certain steps must be taken in the minutes following a car crash. Due to Ontario's insurance and legal claims processes, time is of the essence if you have been hurt in a motor vehicle crash.
The most important step to take following a car accident is to make sure you and other people involved in the collision are alright. Call 911 and be sure to only talk to a police officer at the scene. If you say something to anybody else, such as the other driver, then your words could be used against you later on when making a claim, even if what you said may appear fairly innocuous. Likewise, review the police report to make sure that everything contained within it is accurate. Also, take pictures of any damage to your or anybody else's car. This photographic evidence can be useful when it comes to filing an insurance claim and, if necessary, holding any other party accountable for negligence.
Regardless of whether your accident seems serious or not, it is always a good idea to call an experienced personal injury lawyer right away. At Diamond and Diamond, we will make sure that all angles are considered when reviewing your case, including by making sure that you receive proper medical attention. Some car accidents can lead to injuries that may take several days or even several weeks to become apparent. Furthermore, even the simplest insurance claim can turn into a time-consuming hassle when dealing with an insurer who is less than willing to pay out on a claim you rightfully deserve. Finally, if you are hurt in a car accident in Ontario, there may be issues of liability that extend well beyond the drivers involved in the crash. Various third parties, such as car manufacturers, mechanics, and municipalities, may be found negligent if they in any way contributed to your accident, such as through improperly posted traffic signs or poorly designed car parts. Holding these third parties accountable on your own is extremely difficult, which is why it is so important to have a qualified legal representative on your side as soon as possible.
If you are hurt in a car accident, call us right away. By reviewing the specifics of your case in a timely matter we will be able to give you a much better idea of what legal claims you may have, if any. Furthermore, we will fight on your behalf to make sure that any insurance claims you have are honoured by your provider. If you choose us for your car accident personal injury legal needs, we promise to provide you with professional, courteous, and diligent legal representation.
