Gathering Evidence After a Car Accident

If you sustain injuries or if a loved one suffers injuries or dies in an accident, you can help your case if you are able to start collecting evidence prior to speaking to a lawyer.

If your injuries permit you to do so after the accident, you should:

• Photograph the vehicles involved in the wreck, at the scene if possible
• Photograph any injuries you have
• Photograph the scene of the accident, including the roadway and surrounding areas, as soon as possible after the accident
• Write down the names and contact information of any witnesses, as well as any statement the witness makes about what happened
• Start a journal of your recovery to keep track of how the crash has affected your life, both physically and emotionally

Once you contact your Cincinnati personal injury attorneys at The Moore Law Firm, we will gather additional evidence, including:

• Further photographic evidence
• Formal witness statements
• Police, fire and EMS reports
• Medical records
• Measurements of the accident scene
• Expert witness testimony and evaluations
• Accident reconstruction reports
• Evidence of past and future income

In An Accident With a Truck?

In the event that it was a collision with a commercial truck, the following pieces of evidence are critical:

• Trucking industry documentation of maintenance, history, and schedules
• The truck driver’s employee file, including information about training, licenses, and past infractions
• Information about the trucking company, including regulation compliance

Most Common Causes of Automobile Crashes

If a driver or pedestrian's negligent actions were the main cause behind your crash, you may be able to obtain financial assistance to pay for medical expenses, cover lost income and help with future therapy and treatment. Discover some of the most frequent reasons behind auto collisions here, including the following:

• Texting and driving
• Talking on a cellular device
• Distracted driving
• Speeding
• Drunk driving
• Disobeying traffic laws/signs
• Tired driving
• Tailgating
• Other reckless driving habits

There are of course other reasons that can be behind collisions, such as mechanical failure, tire blowouts, bad weather, or other factors that may be beyond a driver's own control. Many of the above-mentioned reasons, however, are directly related to careless actions taken by the driver. In fact, a number of them are even unlawful and warrant a traffic offense. Speak with a knowledgeable lawyer if you have been involved any sort of crash that was due to another person's negligence. The statute of limitation in Ohio for pursuing personal injury claims after an accident is only 2 years, so act quickly.
