What To Do Immediately After a Car Accident in Nassau County
Your first actions after a crash can have a major impact on the success of your claim. If you are involved in an accident:
Call 911 and make sure a police report is filed.
Seek medical attention immediately — even if injuries seem minor at first. Some serious injuries appear later.
Photograph the crash scene: vehicle damage, skid marks, road conditions, traffic signs/lights, and any visible injuries.
Exchange contact and insurance information with other drivers.
Collect contact information of any witnesses.
Keep copies of medical records, bills, prescription receipts, repair estimates, and any other documentation.
Avoid discussing fault or providing statements to insurance adjusters before speaking with a lawyer.
These steps help preserve critical evidence and protect your rights under New York law.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I really need a lawyer if my accident was “minor”? Yes. Even a seemingly minor accident can lead to delayed injuries or hidden damages. Insurance companies often aim to minimize payouts — a qualified lawyer helps protect your rights and ensures all damages are accounted for.
How much does it cost to hire your firm? You pay nothing upfront. Our fees are contingency-based, meaning we get paid only if we secure compensation on your behalf.
What if I am partially at fault? New York uses comparative negligence rules. Even if you share fault, you may still recover compensation — though reduced by your percentage of fault.
How long do I have to file a claim? Under New York law, there is typically a three-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims. It’s best to contact a lawyer early to preserve evidence and your legal rights.
