What do I have to do to pursue an injury or damage claim against the at-fault party?
First, you need to seek medical treatment to document the injuries you sustained in the accident. Hospital records, doctor reports, office notes/bills, photographs and lost wage documentation are the most common forms of documentation needed. It is also important to consult with the proper medical specialists for your injury. This will result in maximizing your physical recovery while at the same time providing proper and thorough documentation of the injury you sustained. Visible injuries need to be photographed as soon as possible to prove that any permanent scarring or disfigurement resulted from the initial injury or trauma.
