What Evidence Is Needed for a Personal Injury Case?

Personal injury cases are quite varied. When you look for injury lawyers Reston VA, you should seek someone who has handled cases similar to yours. One thing that remains the same for many personal injury cases is the type of evidence you should collect to prove your case.injury lawyers Reston VA

Medical Bills

Your medical bills will not only show what injuries you sustained, but also how severe they are. With the bills in hand, you have a quantifiable amount to include in the compensation you seek. When you receive a medical bill, always hang on to a copy of it. If it would help you stay organized, you could send it to your lawyer to put in your file.

Photographs

If you are able to get photographs at the scene of your accident, those could play a role in proving your case. If not, there are other photographs you could take. For example:

  • Take photos of every stage of the recovery of your injuries
  • Take photos of any property damage sustained
  • Go back to the scene and take photos of the surrounding area
  • Collect surveillance photos or traffic cam photos of the accident scene

Witness Statements

If there were any witnesses that saw your accident happen, you could gather statements from those witnesses. There are others who could be witnesses as well, and your lawyer can help you get creative for those. For example, if a drunk driver caused your accident, witnesses could be any of his or her friends who were at the bar when the driver actually got drunk before the accident.

Police Reports

Not every accident is going to include a police report. For example, if you slipped and fell at a neighbor’s house, chances are nobody called the police. However, there are other injuries that will include a police report, such as those sustained in an auto accident or a domestic dispute. That police report could contain critical information that shows who was at fault for your injury.

Other Official Documents

Your lawyer may have a list of official documents that could be required to make your case solid. Anything your lawyer recommends you hang on to, be sure you do so. Again, you can send any documents to injury lawyers Reston VA in most cases, and he or she will keep them in a safe file so you don’t have to worry about it.

Contacting an Attorney

When you are injured in an accident and plan to file a lawsuit or an insurance claim, you’ll need the proof to show whose fault it was. Contact injury lawyers Reston VA so you can get started with collecting evidence.

This was an awesome experience with Brittney Cassiere, Miriam Calisher, and my attorney Jill. What made me select Cohen & Cohen for my case, was my experience many years ago with Kim Brooks-Rodney. I definitely recommend anyone to use them. They have your best interest at hand.

I am very satisfied with the services provided by Cohen and Cohen. They were able to settle my case within less than a year and settled a fair amount in which I was expecting. They communicated very well throughout the process as well as made sure all boxes were checked off to ensure i received the best care and communication. I will recommend the services to anyone in these situations. Riley and Brittney were certainly very helpful during the process.

Lucas Baudry was my rep for this accident claim, and even though I had LOADS of questions and was a bit impatient, he was always responsive and quick to reply. We’re wrapping up now, and I really feel like he tried to have the best results in the end, and didn’t drag it out more than need be.
