As part of your accident injury claim, you may expect the driver who hit you to be responsible for your medical bills and expenses. First, get to a doctor as soon as possible after the crash. This may be a given if it's a serious accident and you were taken to the hospital. However, in minor accidents sometimes symptoms don't appear until much later. Either way, get to a doctor as soon as you can.
Second, make sure to follow all of your doctor's orders, including any follow-up appointments. You may be prescribed treatment including an MRI, X-rays, chiropractic care, physical therapy, massage therapy, PRP injections, and/or surgery.
Once you finish your treatment, a good personal injury attorney will compile your records, send them to the at-fault driver's insurance company, write a thorough explanation of the events leading to the accident along with a supportive demand for payment or settlement.
