What should I do after an accident in New York

Seek Medical Attention if You are Injured

See a doctor or go to your nearest emergency room immediately. Although you may feel “fine” now or think your injuries aren’t very serious, symptoms may appear days after the accident/injury.

  • Take detailed notes of your injuries or have someone else do it for you
  • You (or someone that is with you) should gather as much information as possible from the accident scene such as: Taking pictures of the accident location,what caused the accident or injury, making sure to include stop signs and traffic lights, road hazards, weather conditions, if applicable.
  • Photos of Your Injuries. Ask a friend to take pictures of your injuries. (Make sure all auto filters are off if using a cell phone)
  • Photos of any damage. Don’t limit it to one or two shots. Take several pictures from every angle, making sure to snap close-ups and long distance shots.
  • Get the names and contact information of any witnesses, and the police officer(s) who arrived on the scene. Make notes of conversations.
  • Do not post anything on your social media accounts until you have spoken with an attorney.
