Navigating Spanish construction sites is like navigating a minefield. Hopping from one huge crater to the next in a vain attempt to view half-built property was all part of the job. And in hindsight, I am probably lucky one of those cranes didn’t drop a ton of concrete on my head, or that I didn’t get flattened by a JCB. Selling the dream on the Costa del Sol is riddled with unforeseen danger. We were always told to carry a safety hat when touring building sites. Not to wear it. Just to hold it. So if you were lucky enough for a stone or rock to ricochet onto your helmet-carrying hand, you could rest assured your guardian angel was looking after you. If, however, you were hit on the head by a lump of falling concrete ……. adios cruel world.

Much fun is made of the compensation culture in Britain. Silly stories abound in the tabloids of shoppers slipping on banana skins and skidding into the nearest freezer head-first. Scratch beneath the surface however and you will find hundreds of people who have suffered an accident or injury through no fault of their own in the workplace, and never make a claim. Personal injury solicitors in the UK are among the best in the world. If I am ever unfortunate enough to suffer an accident or injury at work that was not my fault (for a change) I hope it happens in England. No win no fee solicitors are now able to fight for the rights of the previously unheard victims of accidents in the workplace, and that in itself is a major victory for the little man (or the big man come to that).
You should be protected from personal injury following accidents at work by rules and regulations that are set up for employers. If you feel your employers have been negligent and you think you have a case for compensation after an accident at work, contact a personal injury solicitor within three years of the incident.

Now here are ten useful tips of advice from a motorcycle accident lawyer to follow if you have been in an accident. You can also learn more about how to handle a motorcycle accident in Santee, or any city, by calling the Law Offices of R. Sebastian Gibson at any of the numbers which can be found on our website at http://www.SebastianGibsonLaw.com  and learning how we can assist you.

Obviously, if you have had an accident, and you are reading all of this advice, it’s probably been at least a few days since the accident. However, if it’s only been a few hours or if you ever have another accident, here’s what you should do the next time from the start.

First, take a look around and determine if you or anyone, are hurt. If so, taking steps like trying to prevent further injury or loss of blood are the most important thing you can do. Even if some other driver caused you to be injured, it’s just good manners to help the other driver if they are hurt. They may even be so thankful that they admit their fault to you. The worst thing you can do is get angry or start a fight.

Second, make sure everyone is safe from being injured further. If you are in the middle of traffic, and you are dizzy, sit down away from traffic. If your vehicle is a traffic hazard and you have accident warning devices like flares or triangles, put them out on the road to warn other drivers and get away from the car. Let the police an other emergency personnel investigate the scene with the vehicles in place and move them more safely at a later point.

Third, call the police. Accident reports are extremely helpful if the police will do such a report. Let the police know you are injured immediately. Answer the police questions honestly. But if you are dazed or confused, let them know you need medical treatment and answer only what you feel sure about. Remember, your statements can and will be used against you if you admit fault, and it will be too late and too fishy to later say you didn’t know what you were saying at the scene. Police know that your best recollection is immediately after an accident.

Fourth, get the other driver’s information including their names, addresses, driver’s license numbers, make and model of their vehicles, license plate numbers, and their insurance company name and policy number. If there are witnesses, get their names, addresses and telephone numbers as well. If the other driver makes any admissions of fault, write those down as well.

Fifth, if you have a camera on your cell phone or in the car and you aren’t too injured, take some photos of the vehicles and the scene. If you can’t do it right away, do it after you are released from the hospital.

Sixth, if you are hurt, obtain medical treatment. Don’t decline the ambulance or hospital examination to save your insurance company money or to be stoic. Take your valuables out of your car if you can and get checked out at the hospital. If you are not hurt, don’t get treatment you don’t need. However, remember, after an accident, you may feel a rush of adrenaline that causes you to only start feeling symptoms of pain a few hours later. If you have a health plan that requires you to obtain permission first, call them and find out where you are allowed to seek treatment.

Seventh, call a good motorcycle accident lawyer as soon as you have had your initial treatment, so the attorney can gather other important evidence and prevent the insurance company from taking advantage of you and obtaining such things as recorded statements that you feel fine, when many of your symptoms have yet to manifest themselves. A good motorcycle accident lawyer can save you from making a great deal of mistakes and can shoulder much of the hassle of knowing what to do about car repairs, car rentals, medical treatment, witness statements and the like. If you think you will save money by not having an attorney, think again. A good motorcycle accident lawyer can almost always obtain much higher settlements, obtain reductions of medical bills and insurance liens and prevent you from making costly mistakes. Also, most motorcycle accident attorneys advance costs of obtaining police reports, medical records and the like and are paid and reimbursed for these costs only out of any settlement.

Eight, you will need to report the accident to your insurance company, but since they will want to take a recorded statement from you, just like any other driver’s insurance company, it’s good advice to retain an attorney first. And if the other driver did not have insurance, remember that it is your own insurance company that will be your adversary. You will also need to report the accident to the Department of Motor Vehicles and your lawyer can give you the form for this.

Ninth, do not agree to settle your claim privately with the person at fault for the accident. This almost never works out to your advantage. Don’t agree not to call the police. Police reports that determine the fault for an accident are golden. Your agreement to not involve the police only affords an opportunity for the other driver to change his story and blame you when the police will no longer investigate the accident.

Tenth, don’t pay a traffic ticket without a fight if you weren’t at fault or agree to accept a small payment for your vehicle repairs without knowing that the amount will in fact cover the cost of all the repairs.

If you’ve had a motorcycle accident in Santee, Lemon Grove, Imperial Beach, Mission Valley, National City, Spring Valley, San Diego, La Mesa, Carlsbad, Oceanside, La Jolla, Del Mar, Escondido, Chula Vista, El Cajon, Vista, San Marcos, or anywhere in Southern California, we have the knowledge and resources to be your San Diego Motorcycle Accident Lawyer and your Santee Motorcycle Accident Attorney. Be sure to hire a California law firm with auto, motorcycle, truck, bicycle, pedestrian, car, bus, train, boat and airplane accident experience, wrongful death experience and insurance law expertise who can ensure you are properly represented and get the compensation you deserve.

If you have a personal injury legal matter, a dog bite or if you’ve lost a loved one in a wrongful death accident, call the Law Offices of R. Sebastian Gibson, or visit our website at http://www.SebastianGibsonLaw.com  and learn how we can assist you.

Most personal injury lawyers in Los Angeles also handle wrongful death cases as someone who is seriously injured in an accident may subsequently die of those injuries.

Statute Of Limitations

The wrongful death cases are governed by certain statute of limitations. The first of which is that a lawsuit in a wrongful death case in California must be filed within 2 years from the date of the incident that caused the death. This is mandatory for failing this, the dependents of the victim loose all the right to sue and seek compensation.

There are, however, exceptions to this rule in case the wrongful death was due to medical malpractice, or due to construction faults, and the like. These limitations, as well as exceptions are well known to a wrongful death attorney who would definitely ensure the filing of the case within time.

If the wrongful death has been caused by a government entity, then the claim needs to be filed with that entity within 6 months of the incidence.

Who Can File A Claim?

Not anyone and everyone is entitled to sue for the compensation for wrongful death. The law permits only the following people to file for such claims

*     Surviving spouse, child/children of the victim of wrongful death, or a domestic partner.
 *    Any dependant on the victim; like the stepchildren, parents, a supposed spouse, or children of the supposed spouse.
 *     A minor who resided in the victim’s house for at least 180 days prior to the death.

It may be difficult to assess who rightfully qualifies to sue for wrongful death and who does not. It is therefore advised to people who are planning to file a wrongful death claim case to first check the validity of their case and the best recourse for this can be  to consult with a competent wrongful death attorney to find out whether the case has any chance or not

Lawyer’s Fees

A wrongful death attorney mostly represents his/her clients on a contingency fee basis. This signifies that one does not need to pay any fee in advance, and the lawyer will only be paid an agreed upon percentage of the compensation awarded by the law. And in case, the case is lost and the family or the dependents of the victim do not get compensated, the lawyer does not get paid at all.
