In the aftermath of a car accident, it can be extremely difficult to keep a clear head and prepare for future legal battles, especially if you've been injured or your property has been destroyed. However, taking a moment to gather the necessary evidence can have a major impact on your ability to collect compensation later on. This is why Jones & Jones PC Attys At Law, experienced injury lawyers serving clients throughout Alabama, urges everyone to take pictures, even if you have to ask a friend or family member to do it for you.

Photographic evidence can demonstrate how the accident occurred, which often proves useful when insurance companies attempt to deny they are responsible for the accident. Whenever possible, take photos from multiple angles and try to capture every detail of the incident. The more evidence you collect, the less likely it is that the insurer will attempt to deny liability. And, if they do, you can easily demonstrate that they are responsible for your damages.

The insurance company may also attempt to claim that the damage was less extensive than it actually was, which is another reason why having photographic evidence can be so important. Injury lawyers always advise accident victims to have someone take pictures of their injuries as soon as possible, preferably before receiving medical treatment. Documenting your recovery by taking several pictures at many different points in the healing process will help bolster your claim, especially if you're seeking non-monetary damages like pain and suffering or lost enjoyment.
