What Is Motor Vehicle Accident Rehabilitation?
If you’ve been involved in a motor vehicle accident and are injured, you need to seek medical attention immediately. Even if it was a minor accident, your body may have undergone hidden trauma that you may not be aware of until you experience pain, which may suddenly show up weeks or months later. That’s why it’s important that you get medically assessed regardless of how your body feels following the accident. Some people do not seek medical attention because they don’t think their accident was a big deal or consider it an inconvenience to take the time to get checked out. Unfortunately, by the time they do get help, there may be permanent damage.

How do motor vehicle accident injury claims work?
If you’ve been injured in a motor vehicle accident, you may be wondering how to proceed with an injury claim. In general, there are three types of claims that can be filed: first party, third party, and uninsured/underinsured motorist. Filing a first party claim is through your own insurance company. Conversely, third party claims are filed with the insurance company of the at-fault driver. You may be able to file an uninsured/underinsured motorist claim with your own insurance company if the at-fault driver does not have insurance or doesn’t have enough coverage to cover your damages.
With all that said, the first step is to seek medical attention for any injuries you have sustained. It is important to get a doctor’s opinion not only for your own health, but also to have documentation of your injuries. There are many different types of damages that may be available in a motor vehicle accident injury claim. Medical expenses, both past and future, may be recovered. Lost wages may also be recoverable, as well as property damage. In some cases, pain and suffering damages may also be available. Once you have seen a doctor, you can then start gathering evidence from the accident scene. This may include taking photos of the damage to your vehicle and the other driver’s vehicle, as well as getting the contact information of any witnesses. If the damages are more than $2,000, you will also need to file a police report.
Next, in any kind of claim, notify your insurance company as soon as possible. You will need to provide them with basic information about the accident, as well as any medical treatment that you have received. Once you have done this, your insurance company will open an investigation and begin working on your claim. You may also want to look into contacting an attorney who specializes in motor vehicle accident injury claims. They will review your case and help you determine whether or not you have a valid claim. If they believe you do have a case, they will help you negotiate with the insurance company to get the compensation you deserve. -
What do I do after a Motor Vehicle Accident (MVA)?
After being involved in a motor vehicle accident (MVA), it is important to take certain steps to ensure your safety and protect your legal rights. If you are able, move your vehicle out of the flow of traffic to avoid causing another accident. Once you are in a safe location, turn off your engine and turn on your hazard lights. If anyone has been injured, call 911 and request medical assistance and law enforcement to arrive. If you are able to do so, exchange information with the other driver, including insurance information. You should also gather the contact information of any witnesses who saw the accident. It is also important to take photographs of the damage to both vehicles as well as any visible injuries. Also, get a copy of the police report. Once you have taken these steps, you should contact an experienced personal injury attorney to discuss your case and determine what legal options may be available to you. By taking these steps, you can help to ensure that everyone stays safe and that your insurance claim is processed smoothly.
