What Happens at the Initial Car Accident Consultation?

Injury Lawyer Serving Boulder, Longmont, Broomfield & Surrounding Areas in Colorado

 

If you’ve been injured in a car accident, you should call attorney Chris Jeffress to schedule a complimentary consultation. You may be eligible to file an injury claim and pursue maximum compensation, if the crash was caused by someone else’s negligence.

The consultation with Chris is your opportunity to learn about your options. Ask us anything you have on your mind. We’ll let you know what you should bring to this appointment, including:

• A copy of the accident report (you’ll need to request a copy from the police department)
• The property damage estimate(s) for your vehicle
• Any photographs you took of damage to the vehicles
• Any correspondence you’ve received from the insurance companies involved
• Medical records you’ve received so far
• Medical bills you’ve received so far
• Your auto insurance declarations page
• Your driver’s license
• Your health insurance card

Bring any other documentation or evidence you’ve gathered up to this point. It’s useful to keep a pain journal in which you log your symptoms as they occur. Record how you feel each day, and make note of new symptoms as they arise. You may have treatment notes from your doctor; bring those. Any documentation the police provided you with is helpful as well.

If you don’t know whether you have any of these items, give us a call. We can likely still help you. Chris can help you track down certain reports and documents that may be relevant to your case.

For people who don’t deal with car accidents every day, the claims process can feel like it’s set up against you. Insurance companies are concerned with their bottom lines, and they usually want to close claims as quickly and cheaply as possible. Chris is here to handle all aspects of pursuing compensation for you, so that you can focus on getting better.
