There are a number of things every car accident victim should do immediately following a car wreck, but one trumps all others: seeking medical attention, even if you don’t think you’re injured. The adrenaline your body produces at the time of the accident can mask your pain, leading you to believe you’re okay. However, you still may have sustained serious injuries that could manifest themselves a few days down the road. Seeking medical treatment immediately can minimize the impact of these injuries and get you on the road to recovery more quickly.

It may seem obvious, but the extent of your injuries is the key to your personal injury claim. At Ponce Law, we take the necessary time with every client to fully evaluate your injuries before seeking compensation from the insurance company, and here’s why. You only get one shot at an injury claim. Once we successfully negotiate a settlement with the insurance company, that’s it. If you have further medical expenses down the road that we didn’t account for in our demand, you’ll be on your own to pay them. That’s why we not only take into account your current medical expenses, but also future medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. And the key to that evaluation is you seeking medical attention as soon after your accident as possible.

If you’ve been injured in a car accident, seek medical attention right away. Then give us a call. Our experienced Nashville car accident attorneys are ready to take on your case and fight for maximum compensation.

    Always very professional. When we first called we had no idea if we even had a case, they told us we did. And even though the resolution took a little bit longer than expected, the wait was worth it. They get results and I really appreciated that they consistently gave me updates on the status of my case without me even asking. Thank you Ponce Law!

HEAR IT STRAIGHT FROM OUR CLIENTS

    My son was on a school bus… The school bus was hit… He was taken by ambulance to Vanderbilt. A friend of mine, here in town, owns a hair salon. And she had recommended him. So I actually sent Mr. Ponce a message on Facebook. He said he would love to help! And you know, asked me for some more details. And I’ll give them to him. Some things were sent electronically. That I could just go online and do. And it would be done with! Even the times that I have come into the office. I’m not stuck sitting out in the waiting room forever. I’m brought straight back. And within a minute or two… We were already started!

    The day of my accident, I was riding my scooter and then all sudden… The car just popped out of that other oncoming traffic. As far as trying to find a lawyer… It seemed like we could do it on our own… But it still seemed so iffy! I asked a friend what he thought, they’d mentioned Michael Ponce. And then when it was mentioned… It wasn’t with like… any hesitation. You should call Ponce Law because they will exceed your expectations.
