After a Car Accident
What to Do After a Car Accident in Maryland
The steps you take in the hours and days after an accident directly impact your health and your personal injury claim. Here is what you need to know.
Step by Step
What to Do Immediately After the Crash
If anyone is injured or the accident blocks traffic, call 911 immediately. Wait for police to arrive and file an official accident report — this becomes a key document for your claim.
Photograph all vehicle damage, road conditions, traffic signals, and any visible injuries. Collect the other driver’s insurance, license, and plate information.
See a doctor as soon as possible — even if you feel fine. Many injuries, including whiplash and disc injuries, develop symptoms hours or days later. Delayed treatment gaps can harm your claim.
A personal injury attorney protects your rights, handles insurer communications, and ensures your claim is properly managed. Consultations are typically free.
