Your Naples Auto Accident Attorneys
When you’ve been injured in an auto accident, then the first call you need to make is to the experts of HLH Law Group. We have extensive experience handling automotive accidents in Naples and surrounding areas in Southwest Florida. If you are injured in a car accident, please call our team before speaking with an insurance company representative.
Steps to Take if you Have Been in an Auto Accident
- Take pictures of the scene and all the vehicles involved in the accident.
- Call the police and stay at the scene so you can properly complete a police report. While you're waiting get the other person's name, number, license plate number, car make and model and insurance information.
- Get to a doctor to be checked for your injuries within 14 days of the accident or your claim may be jeopardized.
- Call your own insurance company to report the claim and obtain a claim number.
- Do not give any recorded statements to any insurance companies, including your own.
What to do if you are the At-Fault Driver
If you're found to be the at-fault driver, it's important to hire an accident attorney to help you through the process. HLH Law Group will advocate for you every step of the way and help you move through this process with as little stress as possible. You can depend on us to handle the legal side of your dispute, including any paperwork.
Hit and Run
When you have been injured in a car accident and the driver who caused the accident flees, you may still have an uninsured motorist claim to pursue. This policy will assist in your pain and suffering, medical bills and potentially even your property damage through your own coverage. In Florida, you may also be eligible for victim restitution when you are injured by a hit and run vehicle or by a drunk driver. That is where HLH Law Group is here to help you.
Steps to Follow After an Hit and Run
- Call police to the scene so a report can be created. If you already left the scene, call police and report anyway as it is possible, they obtained a 9-1-1 call from another driver who witnessed the accident, or are able to obtain video coverage of the accident.
- Call your insurance company to report the accident and obtain claim number.
- Seek treatment with a doctor within 14 days of the accident.
- Take pictures of your car and your injuries.
- CALL HLH to review your policy and preserve your claim.
- Do not give any recorded statements to any insurance companies
