For a list of things that you should do after an auto accident to assist in the investigation and support of your claim, see “What to do after an auto accident” section on this website.
A car accident can change your life or a loved one’s life. For example, if you are seriously injured, you may have to take time off from work, and you may have unpaid medical and/or hospital bills. After being injured in a car accident, the first question many people want answered is “who will pay for my medical expenses?”
Keep in mind that because a personal injury claim can take months, or even years, to resolve, you cannot rely on anticipated settlement proceeds or a jury award to pay for your immediate health care needs. If you have no health insurance available to help cover your medical expenses, the attorneys at The Law Firm of William Babich, LLC, will work with health care professionals in your area to get you the medical care you need. Often, a health care provider will agree to treat you if we agree to pay them back after you receive a settlement or award. The attorneys at The Law Firm of William Babich, LLC, can help get you the medical care and attention you need while your claim is being investigated, evaluated, and negotiated.
