1- Get Medical Care Right Away

This holds true even if you don’t have significant symptoms, as symptoms of a whiplash injury often increase over time. Early medical treatment is important to address symptoms right away and get you on the path to recovery as quickly as possible.

2- Collect Evidence At the Scene If Possible

Many accident scenes provide tangible evidence of the other driver’s fault, road conditions, signs, and witnesses. If you can, take pictures and get witness contact information because it is virtually impossible to track witnesses down once they leave the scene of the accident

3- Collect Evidence To Show You Suffered from Whiplash

Any information you have that can prove you suffered a whiplash injury is vital. It should include:

Medical records.
Results of any tests like MRIs
Bills and documents showing what you paid for medical treatment, car repairs, missed time from work, etc.

4- File An Insurance Claim As Soon as You Can

Better to file as soon as possible so that the insurance company can be kept up to date on your treatment and be well aware of the claims that you are making.

5- Stick to your Doctor’s Recommended Treatment Plan

If you’ve seen an MD and have been given a treatment plan, stick to it precisely. It is critically important for your recovery to stick to what your doctor recommends and will greatly simplify the process of establishing your injury and recovery timeline to an insurance adjuster and if necessary, a judge and/or jury.
