TRUCK ACCIDENTS
What to Do If You Are Injured in a Truck Accident
Truck accidents are some of the most dangerous and devastating types of accidents on the road. They can cause serious injuries, even death. If you have been injured in a truck accident, it is important to know what to do next.
The first thing you should do is seek medical attention. Even if you don’t feel injured, it is important to get checked out by a doctor. Truck accidents can cause hidden injuries that may not be apparent right away.
The next thing you should do is contact the police. The police will need to investigate the accident and create a report. This report can be very helpful in your personal injury case.
You should also get the names and contact information of any witnesses to the accident. Witnesses can provide valuable information about what happened, which can help you build your case.
Finally, you should contact an experienced personal injury attorney such as one at our firm, McCullough & Associates. An attorney can help you understand your legal rights and options, and can advocate on your behalf to get the compensation you deserve.
