If you were injured in a car accident, the attorneys of Silvers, Langsam & Weitzman advise you to follow these six critical steps immediately after an auto accident:

  • Do not move your vehicle unless it would be dangerous to remain in its current location.
  • Seek emergency medical treatment, if necessary.
  • Do not admit fault, and only discuss the accident with law enforcement.
  • Take pictures of your car. (Keep a disposable camera in your glove box or use a camera on your cell phone.)
  • If you are sued or want to make a claim, contact your insurer.
  • Contact your attorney or the attorneys at MyPhillyLawyer to discuss your legal options.
