DETERMINING LIABILITY IN AN ACCIDENT

Holding those responsible for the negligence that causes you or your loved one’s injury, is what we do here at Commonwealth Accident Attorneys. Finding liability can be difficult depending on the situation. Sometimes, multiple people can be held accountable in an accident. This is known as comparative negligence.

In some instances, both the plaintiff and defendant are both responsible. This is why it’s vital to work with an experienced law firm with expertise in personal injury law. The goal is to get you the compensation you deserve and help you heal from your injuries.

We comb through every detail thoroughly and conduct an investigation to collect evidence that will support your case. We will take all of the necessary steps in the litigation process and fight to defend your rights.

WHAT TO DO AFTER SUSTAINING A PERSONAL INJURY

Every accident involving personal injury is different, but when it comes to the steps to take after an incident, there are many similarities. It’s advisable to follow these key steps:

  • Seek care from a medical facility as soon as possible. Even if you do not feel that you sustained a serious injury, it is important that you seek appropriate medical care.
  • File a police report. Many victims who sustain a personal injury, do not file a claim. However, even if you do not wish to pursue damages, filing a police report can be beneficial to your case.
  • Collect evidence at the scene by taking pictures and videos of the destruction, as well as your injuries. Also, gather appropriate reports and documentation. This step is vital in building a case against the negligent party.
  • Contact a reputable law firm and hire a personal injury lawyer that is familiar with personal injury lawsuits and that will take the necessary steps to provide you with peace of mind during this time.
