Important Information to Gather from the Scene of an Accident
Being involved in an automobile accident is always annoying, often stressful, and sometimes tragic. Still, one thing is for sure: you’re shaken up and not always thinking straight.

Is There Any Other Information I Should Gather in the Aftermath of an Accident?
Yes, there is important information you should continue to gather. It’s a good idea to take the information you have already gathered and put it all into a folder or scan it into your computer. You’ll need to add to that folder:
- All updated medical bills and receipts
- All updated prescription information
- Updated notes or diagnoses from your doctors
- Updated proof of lost income for missed time at work
- An injury journal detailing your symptoms, treatments, pain level, and progress
All of this information is critical to support any claims you may have. It’s important to follow your doctor’s orders exactly and to document everything along the way.
