<p>1. Promptly notify your automobile insurance company</p>
<p>2. Have all sources of insurance benefits professionally evaluated -- automobile policies; group, government, or private health care plans; HMO coverage; Medicare; workers compensation; etc. (you may receive stacked payments and multiple recoveries for medical expenses.)</p>
<p>3. Take photographs of the damage to your vehicle and of your injuries -- cuts, bruises, black and blue marks, swelling, etc.</p>
<p>4. Seek medical treatment for injuries and keep copies of all the bills.</p>
<p>5. Prepare a list of witnesses and draw a diagram of the accident.</p>
<p>6. Keep a daily diary of problems you are experiencing -- pain, headaches, walking, etc. -- and of medications you are taking.</p>
<p>7. <b>Do not</b> discuss the circumstances surrounding the accident with any insurance company until you have talked with a lawyer who accepts personal injury cases.</p>
