Accident Report

Insist that a report for car or motorcycle accidents be filed with the Miami or Florida State Police.

Collect Information

Document as much as you can about the car, motorcycle, or auto accident or injury itself. Our Miami, Florida car, motorcycle, and auto accident attorneys will need to know every detail about your injuries, any other losses (such as wages) you have suffered as a result of the accident, and any conversation you had with anyone involved in the accident. Be sure to take photos of the car, motorcycle, or auto accident scene, including any visible injuries and the vehicles involved.

Confidentiality

Talk to no one about the car, motorcycle, or auto accident or injuries other than your attorney or physician. You especially do not want to speak with an insurance adjuster. Our attorneys will be happy to assist you.

Witnesses

Get the contact information of anyone who witnessed the accident who may be able to help prove your case.

Medical Attention

Immediately seek medical attention following a car, motorcycle, or auto accident. Be sure to explain how the injuries occurred to your doctor or surgeon. Mention any sensations of disorientation, confusion, memory lapses, or other conditions you have sustained.
