If you are in the process of a personal injury case, it is important to remember some of the following things:

• If there is a finding that shows you might have some of the fault in your accident. To prevent this, it is essential you disclose everything about your accident to your lawyer.
• Make sure to see a reputable doctor or get medical treatment immediately after you’ve been injured. You should also then make sure you document the visit, the injuries you’ve sustained and any pictures you can take of your injuries. A lot of times, insurance companies will try to dispute the need for your medical expenses and to ensure they can’t do that, it is important to always have proof.
• Following that last point, it is also important for you to rest and recuperate from your injures and follow the healing plan your doctor prescribes. If the settlement is a large enough sum, the other side could try to find videos or pictures of you doing things that you were advised not to do. This could mean if you are caught running, walking, or any other physical activity that you previously claimed or were told not to do.
• Stay away from posting anything on social media about the case. Your social media accounts may be another thing that the other side will scrutinize to find proof that can be used against you.
