You may be aware that there are certain actions you should take following a car accident in Los Angeles, Orange County, San Diego, San Bernardino, Ventura or Riverside.  Did you know that there are also things that you should never do after a serious auto accident?  Don’t hurt your chances of recovering compensation for your injuries.  Keep reading to find out what you shouldn’t do after a Los Angeles car accident (or a crash that occurred anywhere in California).

1. Don’t say that you caused the accident.  There are many factors that go into a serious traffic accident and some of these factors may not be discovered until an investigation is completed.  Emotions run high after an accident, so when you are talking with the police, just stick to the facts.

2. Don’t forgo medical care.  What you think is a minor injury could turn out to be something more serious.  You should always seek medical attention following a major collision.

3. Don’t sign insurance papers or give a recorded statement.  You should first talk with an experienced Los Angeles car accident attorney before you agree to anything with the insurance company.

4. Don’t wait too long to talk with a Los Angeles car accident lawyer.  The injury lawyers at Steinberg can help you recover the compensation in which you are entitled.
