The $1,000,000 Picture

ExperiencedConnecticut Car accident lawyer Frank McCoy explains the importance of pictures at the scene of a Connecticut car accident.
A picture is worth a thousand words. You have heard this saying before and it also applies to anyone in a Connecticut car accident. Pictures tell the story of what took place. In the aftermath of a Connecticut car, truck, or motorcycle accident, it is often difficult to think clearly. However, your immediate actions after a Connecticut auto wreck can significantly affect the accident outcome.
Take pictures—if you have access to a camera, take photographs of both the accident scene and the vehicles involved in the accident. Take pictures of how the cars came to rest if they are still in the road. Take pictures of both cars. With the advent of cellular phones this step has become easier for clients to do. These pictures are sometimes the difference maker when it comes to establishing who is at fault and who should pay for the damages associated with the car wreck. In addition, this information may be crucial to developing a strong car accident case. Also, call us immediately. As our client we can photograph the cars and accident scene for you.
Pictures are not limited to just your car damage. It is important to take photographs of any bruising, cuts, or other injuries. It is hard to argue someone did not suffer injury with a picture of a huge black and blue bruise, and/or cuts. Bruises and cuts go away, and if you don’t take a picture, the insurance company may not believe you when you tell them you had cuts and bruises from your connecticut car accident.
