Question:

What should I do if I’m injured in a car accident in South Carolina?

Answer:

I had a business acquaintance call me the other day who had been involved in a car wreck on Martintown Road in North Augusta, South Carolina. They asked me for tips on what they should do in the aftermath of the car wreck. If you’re reading this, you may have the same question. I’ll share with you what I shared with my friend.

Call the police immediately, and make sure the police come and make a report of the accident. If you’re physically able, get the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of all witnesses to the accident. If you’re physically able, take photographs of the accident scene. I also recommend that you get medical treatment to make sure that your medical condition is stable, and take the doctor’s advice.

Lastly, there’s a good chance that the at-fault insurance company adjuster will try to call you and ask you to give a recorded statement. It’s the insurance company’s goal to get you to say things about your case that are not helpful for your case and will diminish the value of your case.

If you have questions about your car wreck case in South Carolina, give us a call. We’d be happy to help.
