Importantly, attorney Jason McLendon has a guarantee that he will never receive more money from a settlement than a client. After all, you were injured. You deserve to be compensated.

• Tell the police you are injured. If you experience pain, you should tell the police. If you do not, they will not on the police report that you are not injured and this may hurt your personal injury claim.
• Never say “I’m sorry.” If you are injured in a car accident, you never want to tell anyone involved that you are “sorry.” Although, this may seem like the polite think to do, it can be interpreted as an admission of fault. The best practice is to not speak with anyone involved in an accident, other than the police.
  Gather witness information. If someone saw the car accident that caused your injuries, get their name and contact information.
• Take pictures. It is important that you document the damage to the vehicles and any visible visible injuries that you have. The phrase “a picture is work a thousand words” is true. Photographs almost always help your injury case.
• Go to the hospital. Even if you are worried that you cannot afford medical treatment, go to the hospital to make sure that you are not suffering from serious injuries.
• Never give a recorded statement. The insurance company will contact you and request that you provide a recorded statement. You should never do this without first speaking with an injury lawyer.
• Contact a Georgia personal injury lawyer to discuss the facts of your injury claim and how we can assist.
