What You Should Know
Following serious Florida auto accidents, victims can expect vehicle property damage to be the least of their problems. Serious bodily injury can be sustained not only from the initial contact with the other vehicle, but from the secondary impact within your own vehicle. And despite the fact that vehicles are designed with new and improved safety features, auto accidents remain the leading cause of death among young adults.
Our firm is well aware that injuries associated with Florida auto accidents can wreak havoc on the lives of victims and also the lives of their family members. For this reason, the Jacksonville car accident injury attorneys at our Jacksonville, Florida firm are committed to offering the kind of invaluable legal assistance and guidance that puts families on the path to recovery.

- Property damage

What to Do if You Are Involved in an Auto Accident
The first moments following an auto accident can be extremely hectic and confusing. If you are involved in a collision, our auto accident attorneys advise you to take the following steps immediately to ensure that your legal rights are protected:
- Dial 911 - In Florida, a police report must be completed after all auto accidents involving property damage exceeding $500, injury, or death. Call 911 to report the accident and make sure to advise the 911 operator of any injuries.
- If possible, move your vehicle to the side of the road and turn off your ignition (and the ignition of other cars involved in the accident). Stand apart from the vehicle while calling for help to avoid injury in case the car is hit again. If parties are injured, do not attempt to move them unless they are in immediate danger.
- Our Florida car collision attorneys always recommend that you avoid admitting fault or discussing fault with other parties involved in the collision. It is best to avoid confrontation and cooperate fully with the police.
- Exchange information with all parties involved in the collision (again, avoid discussions of fault). Make sure to write down registration numbers, drivers license info, and insurance info.
- Check for witnesses to the auto accident - if there are witnesses obtain their contact information (including work and home phone numbers).
- If you are experiencing any pain, seek medical attention immediately (even if you feel the injury is minor).
- Make sure to photograph your vehicle (before repairs are completed) and injuries sustained from the crash. If you have a cell phone camera available you may want to photograph the crash scene and vehicles involved in the collision.
Above all, protect your rights. You are not required to give any statements to the other party's insurance company. While you should cooperate with your own insurance company, you may want to consider consulting one of the auto accident attorneys from our Jacksonville firm before giving a statement.
