Steps To Take If Your Child Was Injured In A Car Accident
Check on your child – After the accident happens, check on your child. If they are unconscious or appear to be highly injured, do not remove them from their position. You need to find out if they have injured their head, neck, or spine.
Seek medical attention – Not all injuries are obvious. Even if your child can get out of the car and appears to be okay, you should still get medical treatment. You can check to see if they have any pain from injuries like sprains or fractures.
Consult your auto insurance – File a claim. They may need documentation of the injuries to your child to get the information you need from your doctor. The other driver may be responsible for your injuries or damage.
Hire a car accident attorney – A car accident attorney can assist in the process with your auto insurance and any other people involved in the accident.
Monitor your child – Keep an eye on your child for the next couple days after the incident. Some injuries do not show right away such as whiplash.
