What To Do After an Accident
After an accident, taking the right steps can be crucial to preserve your right to compensation. Here’s what you should do after getting injured in an accident:
- Seek Medical Attention: Your health is your first priority. Even if you don’t feel injured, some symptoms may appear later.
- Report the Accident: Whether it’s a car accident or an incident on someone’s property, report it to the relevant authorities or property owner.
- Document Everything: To the best of your ability, take photos of the accident scene (including your injuries), and gather names and contact information of witnesses.
- Consult with an Attorney: Contact a Bloomington personal injury attorney to discuss your legal options and ensure your rights are protected.
How Long Do You Have To File a Claim?
In Indiana, the statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim is generally 2 years from the date of the accident. This means you must file a lawsuit within this timeframe to seek damages for your injuries. Failing to act within this period can result in the loss of your right to compensation.
