What Should You Do?

There are a number of important things you need to do after you have been injured such as:

  • Contact an experienced attorney from our firm
  • Report your injury as soon as possible to your employer
  • Seek medical attention and get your treatment on the record
  • Tell a medical professional about any symptoms you have

What Should You Not Do?

Just as important as what you should do, there are a number of things you should avoid doing, including:

  • Giving a recorded statement to an insurance company
  • Seeing an insurance company doctor before seeing one of our lawyers
