Because our client did this, they had a much more substantial way of claiming their money and getting justice directly from the person who had wronged them. However, there are other important things to keep in mind. Here’s your priority list for what to do after being rear-ended, including in a hit-and-run case.

No. 1: Check for injuries.

After an accident — before you can help anyone else — you need to properly assess your current physical well-being so you don’t worsen or disable yourself as well. After being rear-ended, people often experience severe neck and back pain, some of which can lead to lifelong health complications. Even if you don’t think you’ve broken anything, seek medical attention as soon as possible.

No. 2: Get the other driver’s information.

“LOVE DOESN’T MAKE THE WORLD GO ‘ROUND. LOVE IS WHAT MAKES THE RIDE WORTHWHILE.”

Many people will stop, but in a hit-and-run scenario, this might mean following them until they pull over or simply reading and recording their license plate. Just be safe and don’t do any illegal maneuvers to follow them.

No. 3: Call the police and report the accident.

A police report will be crucial to making your claim. As soon as you get the chance, call the police and explain to them what happened. For people who get very nervous around police officers, try your best to take things one detail at a time. Don’t get too nervous and accidentally lie to a police officer, which is illegal! Lastly, you’ll definitely want to call an attorney to help provide justice for you and your family for your (most likely) expensive injury. If you need a helping hand, don’t hesitate to call our experts at Garcia & Ochoa!
