Your Guide: What to Do After a Car Accident

What are the most important steps that you should follow after a car accident occurs? There are several things that must be done to help you optimize the potential payout from the insurance company:

1. Ensure Safety

After the moment of impact, safety and medical care are the highest priority. If possible, move your car to a safe location. Call 911 for medical services if necessary.

2. Document the Accident

Be proactive about taking photos and videos of the road conditions, vehicle damage, and any other vehicles that were involved in the accident. This information can be used in your insurance claim filing.

3. Exchange Information

Talk to the other people involved, including witnesses, to get their names and contact details. Regardless of who was at fault for the accident, make sure to get insurance information from the other drivers.

4. Notify the Insurance Company

You’ll start the claims process by reaching out to your insurance provider. Or, better yet, bring your car to us and provide the insurance information. We can handle everything for you.

FAQs

Can I only use repair shops recommended by my insurance company?

No! Your legal right is to choose any repair shop that you desire. It’s common for insurance companies to suggest a preferred shop. But it’s ultimately your choice to decide where you want to take the vehicle for repairs.

What if my repair costs are higher than the insurance estimate?

Sometimes it happens that the insurance company thinks that the repair services should be cheaper than the estimated repair costs. In this situation, we will work with the insurance company to provide the necessary information so that all of the repairs are covered.

Will my monthly insurance rates increase if I file a claim?

It depends on your insurance provider and policy. The best solution is to talk to your insurance company to determine the impact of filing a claim.

How long will it take to finalize the insurance claim?

The turnaround time depends on the response of your insurance company and the extent of damage to your vehicle. We’re proactive about speeding up this process to get you back on the road as soon as possible.
