Following any car accident, it’s important to focus on gathering and preserving evidence. That means a lot more than just pulling cellphone records and speaking to witnesses. It should also include any video footage, data from the vehicles, inspections for potential vehicle defects, road marking and debris analysis, road design and signage and lighting, etc. Likely or not, it’s important to consider all possible factors. In my experience, victims and families with the most facts telling their story as possible will tend to have better outcomes.
