What to Do After an Injury in Beverly Hills (and How It Can Protect Your Claim)
When you’re hurt in an accident, the steps you take in the hours and days that follow can make a meaningful difference in your physical recovery and in the strength of your legal claim. If you’re in Beverly Hills (90210) or nearby, the Law Offices of Haleh Shekarchian can help you make informed decisions, communicate with insurers, and avoid common mistakes that reduce compensation.
Smart next steps after an accident
- Get medical care immediately — even if symptoms seem minor. Some injuries (like concussions or soft-tissue damage) can worsen over time.
- Document the scene by taking photos of vehicles, hazards, visible injuries, and the surrounding area. If you can, note the time, location, and weather/lighting conditions.
- Collect witness information (names, phone numbers, and brief statements) before people leave.
- Report the incident to the appropriate party (police, property manager, business owner, rideshare platform) and request a copy of any report.
- Avoid recorded statements to insurance adjusters until you’ve spoken with an attorney. Seemingly harmless questions can be used to shift blame or minimize injuries.
- Preserve evidence such as damaged clothing, receipts, medical paperwork, and communications with insurers.
Compensation may include more than just medical bills
Depending on the circumstances, you may be able to pursue damages for:
- Medical treatment, rehabilitation, and future care needs
- Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Out-of-pocket expenses related to your injury
- Property damage (when applicable)
If you’re unsure what to do next, a quick conversation can bring clarity. Reach out to the Law Offices of Haleh Shekarchian to discuss your situation, understand your options, and learn what your case may require to move forward.
Helping the Injured Throughout Beverly Hills
All injuries have the potential for being life changing, especially when you have to take time off from work to recover. Every day bills can only add to the stress, especially when you have the additional expenses of medical and rehabilitation costs.
Our firm is particularly adept at handling those with burn injuries, which can have long-lasting or permanent damage for victims. These types of burns can lead to other physical problems, including respiratory problems, serious infections, and more. Burn victims may require extensive and repeated surgeries as well as long rehabilitative treatment.
Attorney Shekarchian can also help those who have suffered serious head injuries, which are often the catastrophic consequence of a traffic accident, construction accident, or slip and fall. Traumatic brain injury can lead to a host of physical, emotional, and behavioral problems, from comas to memory loss to severe headaches, cognitive disability, convulsions, loss of motor skills, and more.
Often related, spinal cord injuries are among the most grievous that an individual can experience. In an incomplete spinal cord injury, the victim may retain some sensation or ability to move below the damaged area which may or may not lead to a partial or full recovery. In a complete spinal cord injury, the victim will be paralyzed below the damaged area.
