What to Do After a Car Accident in Los Angeles

Taking the right steps after a crash can protect your health and your claim. Every accident is unique, but there are actions that generally help victims in Los Angeles.

After a car accident, consider these important steps:

  1. Move to safety: Relocate to a secure area and check for any injuries.
  2. Call 911: Report the accident and request medical assistance, even if injuries seem minor.
  3. Exchange information: Gather names, contact details, driver's license numbers, and insurance information from all involved drivers.
  4. Document the scene: Photograph the vehicles, accident site, license plates, signals, and any visible injuries.
  5. Identify witnesses: Speak with witnesses and collect their contact information.
  6. Limit statements: Stick to basic facts and avoid admitting fault or assigning blame.
  7. Seek medical care: Get evaluated by a doctor promptly, since some injuries appear later.
  8. Notify insurance: Inform your insurer, but speak with a lawyer before giving any detailed or recorded statements.

High-traffic locations such as the 101 Freeway or smaller intersections can present special challenges. Our team can explain which steps matter most for your situation and provide personal support from your first call.

Frequently Asked Questions

How soon after my car accident should I contact your team?

It is best to contact us as early as possible after your accident. Doing so allows our team to protect important evidence, advise you on interactions with insurance companies, and help avoid mistakes that could affect your claim later. While you are not legally required to call right away, acting quickly can help us provide better guidance and results. 

What if the insurance company has already made a settlement offer?

If you receive a settlement offer from an insurance company, we recommend having our Los Angeles car accident lawyer review it before you decide. Insurers sometimes push to settle fast and for less than you deserve. We analyze each offer to see if it meets the true value of your claim. We can advise whether an offer is fair or needs improvement. Reaching out for help could affect your outcome, and there is no cost to consult us.

    • "Thanks to you, you made a bad topsy-turvy affair a very easy ordeal."
      Dear Mr. Effres, We just once again wanted to thank you so very much, for your fine (I should say “great”) handling of Anne’s case. We have never had to “go to court,” or sue anyone in the past and really had no idea where to start with any of the details. Thanks to you, you made a bad topsy-turvy affair a very easy ordeal on our behalf. And my husband and I really appreciate the time and effort you gave the case. I hope we never have to do anything like this again, but should something like this happen you can be sure of hearing from us again – Thank you very, very much. With warmest regards
      - F & D
    • "Justice was done."
      Dear Mr. Effres, I was the juror that took your card and assured you I’d call, as time is such a premium in our lives, dropping you a line is much easier. Thank you for the offer of our suggestions and/or comments. What impressed me the most and what seemed the be a determining factor was the diligence in which you presented the evidence, your depth of conviction for Maria’s case was deeply felt. Your calmness in dealing with the judge with the study in the strength of the human character! The only suggestion I would make (and this is coming from a color consultant point of view) would be to wear dark suits, white shirt and a striking tie (LOVE THE SCALE OF JUSTICE TIE), other than that – change nothing. Please pass on my best wishes to Maria even though the money could not begin to suffice for her injury the quality of her life may be enhanced, they are a beautiful family and were represented by a compassionate, thorough, competent lawyer. Justice was done. God bless you. by K. R.

    • "So pleased to win the case, through your legal expertise."
      Dear Mr. Effres, Please allow us to make your acquaintance. We are writing at the urging of Mr. Gusa, who shared with us the lovely history behind our receiving a beautiful six-passenger golf cart. As you know, he is a fine man and he was so pleased to win the case, through your legal expertise, so as to provide us with this unexpected gift. We would never have conceived of having such a large golf cart. Now that we have it, we are discovering how very valuable it is for being able to take a group of our distinguished guests all together on a tour around the monastery grounds. Perhaps one day circumstances will be such that you find yourself in Arizona. If so, we would be pleased to invite you on a tour of the monastery! With best regards by X. N.
