Had A Car Accident In Tampa?
If an
auto accident occurs in Tampa, state law requires that certain procedures must be
followed. No matter who was at fault in a two car accident, both parties must
stop at the scene. Drivers must exchange names and addresses and insurance
company information. You should also call the police. The resulting police
report will include details of the accident, including damages and
injuries. If someone has been injured, you should get a copy of the report as
verification. Many states including Florida require that an auto accident report be filed with the
department of motor vehicles within a certain time period.
You should also report the accident to your insurance company immediately, even
if no one was injured. If later, a claim is made against you as a result of the
car accident, your insurance company may be obligated to provide an personal
injury defense attorney
for your defense. If you're personally contacted by the other party or their
lawyer you should refer all correspondence to your insurance company. You
shouldn't deal directly with anyone who claims to be injured or damaged as a
result of the auto accident. However, if YOU feel you have been injured as a
result of someone else's negligence, you should seek the advice of an
experienced personal injury attorney as early as possible. The issues related to
claims of negligence, personal injury and insurance coverage are complicated and
can be tricky for someone not experienced in this area. At Kinney, Fernandez &
