When you’ve been injured in a car wreck, every day counts. Medical bills pile up. Lost wages add stress. Insurance companies stall. That’s why at George Bush Law, we don’t let your case get stuck in slow-moving negotiations. Our streamlined approach eliminates unnecessary delays, ensuring that your case moves forward as quickly as possible. While other firms take weeks just to file your claim, we’re already fighting to get you compensated. Time is money, and we don’t waste either.
Some law firms take the easy route and settle too soon – but at George Bush Law, we fight until we get the best possible outcome for you. We take insurance companies to court every week and make sure they don’t shortchange our clients. If an insurance company tries to deny or undervalue your claim, we sue them. We fight hard because we know that’s the only way to get you the full compensation you deserve.
Don’t navigate this alone – let us fight for the compensation you need to move forward.
Documenting the car crash scene
After the car crash, you need to do your best to document the entire car wreck. Call the police to report the collision, take pictures of the scene, your injuries and vehicle damage and avoid admitting any blame or apologizing to the other driver until you have all the facts. You should even consider talking to all the witnesses and taking their contact information for future use.
Get your injuries checked
After you’ve left the scene, see a doctor as soon as you can to have your injuries checked out. Some car crash injuries take time to fully show up, so you should see a doctor even if your pain is minor. The sooner you can get treatment and create a record that you saw someone for your injuries, the better it is for your case. Also, keep track of all medical bills, doctor notes and other records of your injuries and medical expenses.

Take notes of the crash
Keep a record of what happened before, during and after the car wreck. Write down how the collision made you feel and how your injuries have impacted your day-to-day life. Also, record any names and contact information of people you’ve communicated with about your wreck.
Document your car damages
Keep track of all costs associated with your car wreck. Use a file or folder to save documents and notes in one place. This should include your claim number, insurance adjusters name, medical bills and records, quotes for vehicle repairs and full names and information for relevant contacts.
