What to do after an accident in Chateau Woods
Get medical care first, even if you feel fine, because some injuries show up later. Document the scene and your injuries with photos and notes, and exchange and gather information from everyone involved. Avoid admitting fault or giving a recorded statement to an insurer. Keep records of treatment, bills, and time missed from work. Then act promptly: Texas has a filing deadline of 2 years from the date of injury, so waiting can cost you the right to recover. A local attorney can explain your options and help you protect evidence while it is still fresh.
