What To Do
If you or a loved one just suffered a traumatic brain injury (often from a car accident), here are the critical next steps:
1
Prioritize Safety and Call 911: If able, move to a safe spot away from traffic. Call 911 right away to report the accident. Provide officers with a factual account without admitting fault (stick to known facts). Obtain the police report number or a copy.
2
Do Not Admit Fault: Avoid any statements implying blame, like “I’m sorry” or “I didn’t see them,” to drivers, witnesses, or police. Cooperate factually; avoid arguments. These can harm your TBI claim.
3
Gather Evidence at the Scene (If Safe): If not too injured, collect key info:
- Exchange contact and insurance details with others involved.
- Get names/numbers of witnesses.
- Photograph damage, positions, skid marks, debris, and any visible injuries (head, bruising).
If unable due to injuries, ask a passenger or witness for help. Photos strengthen your case.
4
Seek Medical Attention Immediately: Get evaluated by paramedics on scene. Go to the ER or doctor even if you “feel okay“—adrenaline masks symptoms. See a specialist within 24-48 hours for imaging/tests. This documents hidden issues like concussions, cognitive changes, or internal damage and links them to the accident.
5
Inform Your Insurance Company (But Be Cautious): Report basic facts (date, location, parties) promptly. Do NOT give a recorded statement or detailed info to any adjuster before speaking to an attorney. Say the matter is under investigation; your lawyer will handle follow-up. You’re not obligated to speak to the at-fault party’s insurer.
6
Preserve Documentation and Receipts: Organize a file with:
- Police report,
- Medical records/imaging,
- Hospital/therapy bills,
- Prescription receipts,
- Lost wage statements,
- Repair estimates,
- Towing bills,
- Journal symptoms daily (headaches, memory issues, mood changes, limitations) to support pain/suffering and future care claims.
Track missed work days and save insurance correspondence to prove damages. Journal your recovery, noting pain, limitations, and daily impacts to support pain and suffering claims.
7
Contact a Brain Injury Attorney Before Signing Anything: Consult an experienced TBI lawyer right away—before statements, low offers, or settlements. Insurers often undervalue brain injuries (even “mild” ones). Don’t sign releases without review; they’re usually final. HY Attorneys offers free case reviews in Nebraska or Iowa. If we take your case, we handle everything—no upfront costs. The call is free and risk-free.
