When you have been injured due to an individual’s or company’s acts or omission, you should seek the medical attention you need. You should also report the incident to the local police and inform your insurance company. It is also imperative that you seek legal counsel as soon as possible in order to protect your rights. You can be assured that an insurance company representing the opposing side will most likely be investigating the incident within hours. And they are investigating the incident in order to make it as difficult as possible for you to get the compensation you deserve.
