Los Angeles Auto Accident Attorneys

Los Angeles is home to some of the most congested highways and byways in our country. And when you consider that auto accidents are the leading cause of injury and death in our country, it stands to reason that driving in Los Angeles is a dangerous undertaking. Every year about 6 million people in this country are involved in auto accidents, a third of those accidents result in the most serious of injuries that will require lifelong medical care, these injuries include severe trauma to the brain and spinal cord.

With 40,000 people dying a year in the U.S. on our highways and the highest number of those fatalities occurring in California, it is no wonder that so many of us have our lives changed by the injuries caused by dangerous Los Angeles car accidents each year.

What You Should Do Immediately Following A Los Angeles Car Accident

After an automobile accident occurs, you should immediately call the police and file an accident report, providing that your physical condition permits it. The filing of a report with the police or highway patrol will help to document the facts of your specific auto accident and will help investigators determine who was at fault. Police reports can be invaluable tools in determining the cause of most car crashes. Even in situations where no injuries are apparent, a police report is of paramount importance. Very often, injuries like whiplash are not immediately felt, days can pass before all of the symptoms of injuries are apparent.

Gathering as much information as possible immediately following the auto accident is also important, things like:

• Name, address, insurance information and driver’s license of the parties involved
• Photos of the accident scene, if possible (most cell phones are now equipped with photo features, use them!)
• Names and contact information of potential witnesses to the incident
