What To Do If You’re Involved In A Motor Vehicle Accident?

Being involved in a motor vehicle accident is one of the most traumatizing situations anyone can be in. Especially if it is your first one. In 2021, Los Angeles city had over 40,000 motor vehicle collisions reported. That’s a very big number and has been increasing year after year. The important thing to know is how to be prepared if you are involved in a car accident.

Initial Steps to Take in a Car Accident:

  1. Prioritize Your Health: Seek immediate medical attention, even if you believe your injuries are minor. Some injuries may not be immediately apparent, and having a timely medical evaluation can be crucial for your health and any future legal claims.
  2. Document Everything: Keep detailed records of the accident, including photos of the scene, your injuries, and any damages to your vehicle. Also, gather contact information for any witnesses. Documentation can be vital for insurance claims and potential legal actions.
  3. File a Police Report: Reporting the accident to the police is important. A police report provides an official account of the incident, which can be helpful for insurance claims and any legal proceedings.
  4. Notify Your Insurance Company: Inform your insurance company about the accident as soon as possible. However, be cautious about the details you provide before speaking to a personal injury attorney, as statements can impact your claim.
  5. Be Cautious with Insurance Adjusters: Insurance adjusters may contact you to discuss the accident. Remember, their goal is to minimize the payout for the insurance company. It’s often best to refer them to your attorney rather than engaging in detailed discussions or agreeing to any settlements prematurely.
  6. Avoid Social Media: Do not post details about the accident, your injuries, or any legal proceedings on social media. Insurance companies and defense attorneys might use such posts against you.
  7. Understand Statutes of Limitations: In California, there are specific time limits for filing a personal injury lawsuit. Generally, you have two years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. Missing this deadline can bar you from pursuing legal action.
  8. Consult a Personal Injury Attorney: Personal injury laws can be complex, and an experienced attorney can provide valuable guidance, help you understand your rights, and advocate on your behalf to ensure you receive fair compensation for your injuries, damages, and any other losses.
  9. Consider All Damages: Compensation in personal injury cases can cover more than just medical bills. It may also include lost wages, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and more. An attorney can help identify all potential areas of compensation.
  10. Be Mindful of Your Statements: Anything you say about the accident can be used in the legal process. It’s wise to discuss the accident only with your attorney and avoid making statements to others that could be interpreted as an admission of fault.

I got into an accident and insurance was disputing liability. My original attorney was pushing me to settle for like $4,000, Derik came in and got them to pay nearly 9x that within 3 and a half months. thank you, you’re the best!!

A case that I was told was not winnable by other attorneys was indeed winnable when I did not listen to those attorneys and took my case and finally found DAS Law; representation that truly looks out for and cares for their clients. Derik was my attorney for that case and for as long as Derik is alive and I need legal representation, nobody else will be helping me or being my legal counsel. If you ever find yourself in the unfortunate event of an accident or need legal representation for any other reasoning, DO NOT waste your time calling or meeting with other attorneys. Immediately call DAS Law and ask for Derik. One thing I appreciated the most from him was how caring he was during the entirety of the process and the fact that he makes you feel like family who is reachable at any time and not just a client. 10 out of 5 stars for DAS Law!!

So first I want to start off with thanking the guys at DAS Law Group for all great work they do and for making one feel like they truly are being represented. This is the second time I have the pleasure of working with DAS law group, and let me tell ya, they exceed all expectations every time! The first time my bf and I had got into a collision, and we thought we had a slam dunk case since we were the obvious victims and had a police report to back us. We didn't feel like we needed an attorney, but boy, were we wrong! Before we knew it, the ones responsible for the whole accident had hired an attorney and were trying to weasel us out of our settlement check. That's when we contacted Chris late into the case, and he was our knight in shining armor. He managed to get us what we deserved despite being late into the case. Fast-forward a year later, I unfortunately got hit in a shopping plaza. Taking the lessons I learned from the last accident, I wasted no time in contacting law group. That's when Chris connected me with his extraordinary associate, Derik, and I couldn't be more thankful for it!! The person hit me attempted to pull a fast one on us but Derik wasn't having any of it. He quickly found a solution to our dilemma and was able to get me treatment for my injuries and just compensation. The whole experience was nerve wrecking but Derik's professionalism and commitment to help those in need was very soothing and reassuring. Despite their growth and popularity as law group, they're always very committed and happy to take a quick call to let you know where you're at in the process. I know sometimes it can be frustrating because it's a lengthy process , but rest assured that your wait is worth while with DAS law group. They truly are the best at what they do. I recommend law group to anyone looking for top-notch attorneys that are about protecting their clients. All my family members are now loyal clients for any future accidents that may occur. I am happy to say that I can drive comfortably knowing that if anything arises on the road, I have a law group on my side! Once again, thank you so much for everything you do!

I'm really glad I turned to Derik when I did. I did not realize until too late that I had a leak under my sink which ended up causing way more damage than I thought. I didn't know what to do... whether I should get insurance involved, or try to handle things on my own. Once I got in touch with Derik, he calmed me down and took over the whole process. With no effort on my part, he was able to get my insurance company to pay for all necessary repairs. A true life saver.

Derik is an amazing lawyer, couldn’t recommend him enough! Having him on your side makes you feel protected and cared for no matter what situation you’re in. He is like a wealth of knowledge on matters you would never expect ranging from medical injuries to treatment plans to insurance protocol. He also is able to connect you with the best resources and is always incredibly responsive and personable. He truly fights tooth and nail on your behalf, more than any lawyer ever would. Do not hesitate and equip yourself with the best lawyer around.

I’m writing this review on behalf of my father who was rear ended by a Jeep at speeds of nearly 30 miles per hour while he was waiting at the light at an exit on the 110 freeway. He didn’t see it coming and it really shocked him and caused him really bad pain throughout his neck and back. He also missed some time from work. He runs a business, so his absence was detrimental to the company. The insurance was refusing to pay for any of those damages and was claiming that it was “too speculative,” but Derik was able to prove otherwise. He had told us he has great experience defending these insurance companies in the past and that he knew how to get around their arguments. He came off as a knowledgeable lawyer, and was really adamant about getting money for the harm they caused. He got him the treatment he needed to get back up on his feet and back to work. He got him a great settlement, which not only included his injuries injuries but also the loss of business income that they were initially disputing!  He brought in a great expert to help support our claim. Thank you!!
