An accident is a traumatic experience for anyone, and your thoughts are usually all over the place when you are dealing with painful injuries. If you have severe injuries, the very first thing is to get yourself to an emergency room or call 911. Otherwise, please take a moment to document your injuries and the scene of the accident by taking photos with your phone. We also recommend the following:
- If there are witnesses, ask for written statements or get their contact info so they can provide a statement later.
- Save the defective product as evidence for a claim and do not throw it away or return it to the manufacturer.
- No matter what type of injuries you have, make sure to go to a hospital within 48 hours. If you don’t, it will be difficult to prove that your injurie are a direct result of the accident.
- Keep a collection of all evidence related to your case, like medical records and time off requests from work.
- Let the manufacturer know about the accident, but do not accept anything they offer, which may include a refund, free repair service, or replacement product. This is a classic ploy by manufacturers to invalidate a victim’s right to sue.
- Call a defective product class action lawyer, who can talk to you about your rights and legal options.
