What to Do After a Car Accident

The hours and days following a crash can be overwhelming—but your actions matter. Here’s what we recommend:

  1. Seek medical attention, even if symptoms seem minor.
  2. Document everything—photos of the scene, injuries, damage, and insurance information.
  3. Avoid discussing fault at the scene or with the other party’s insurer.
  4. Call SL Chapman before speaking to insurance companies. Our team will protect your rights and guide you through what comes next.

Common Injuries in Car Accidents

Injuries aren’t always immediately obvious. Some may take weeks to appear, while others can leave a permanent impact. Our firm works with top medical experts to fully assess and quantify your injuries—both current and future.

We routinely handle claims involving:

  • Joint and soft tissue injuries
  • Concussions and traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
  • Spinal injuries and herniated discs
  • Shoulder, hip, and knee trauma
  • Disfigurement or facial injuries
  • Chronic pain conditions
  • Emotional distress or anxiety disorders
  • Fatalities and wrongful death claims

Determining Liability in Your Case

Every accident is unique—and so is every legal strategy we build. Our attorneys investigate thoroughly to determine:

  • Who was at fault?
  • Were traffic laws violated?
  • Was the driver distracted, impaired, or reckless?
  • Could poor road conditions or vehicle defects be factors?

We gather evidence, consult accident reconstruction experts, and interview witnesses to build the strongest case possible on your behalf.

Types of Accidents We Handle

From fender benders to catastrophic multi-vehicle crashes, SL Chapman has handled thousands of car accident cases involving:

  • Rear-end and T-bone collisions
  • Intersection accidents
  • Rollover crashes
  • Distracted driving and texting while driving
  • Commercial vehicle and delivery van accidents
  • Rideshare (Uber/Lyft) incidents
  • Reckless or aggressive driving
  • Drunk or drug-impaired driving

Don’t Let Insurance Companies Dictate Your Recovery

Insurance companies are not on your side. They’re trained to reduce, delay, or deny your claim altogether. At SL Chapman, we know their tactics—and we know how to beat them. Our team handles all communication and negotiation so you can focus on healing. If they won’t offer a fair settlement, we’ll take them to court.
