Organizational Tips for Personal Injury Claims
Keeping track of paperwork and other documentation is an important part of the personal injury claim process. Here are some helpful tips to stay organized and be prepared for your claim:
– Choose a method for organizing paperwork – Consider using a file box or other container and use dividers or tabs to make sections for your insurance, the defender’s insurance, attorney information, medical records, vehicular damage, missed work/lost wages, and other necessary categories. – Keep all physical papers and make copies if necessary – Hold onto any and all actual paperwork and keep it in the appropriate sections. Consider making copies of particularly important documents to ensure that the information is backed up in case you lose track of the original papers. – Keep records of all communication – Consider taking notes when speaking in-person or on the phone with important individuals regarding your case, and also save any letters you receive and make copies if necessary. Online, consider creating a new e-mail address specifically for correspondence about your case or simply create a new subfolder for the case under your current e-mail. While you make physical copies of important papers, you can also scan and save copies of these papers to keep track of them online. – Keep track of recorded statements – Make sure you have the contact information of anyone to whom you have provided a recorded statement, as well as witnesses of the accident, as it can be crucial later on.
