What to Do After Experiencing Loss and Injury Due to Wildfires
Do not delay acting if you’ve suffered damage to your home or complete property loss and personal injury due to wildfires. You’ll want to consider the following steps:
- Document Everything: Take as many detailed and clear photos and videos of the property damage and personal injury as possible. It is essential to be thorough with this step.
- Contact Insurance Providers: You’ll have to report the incident to your insurers as soon as possible to commence the claims process. Always keep a record of all communication and get every agreement and arrangement in writing.
- Medical Attention: If you’ve sustained an injury, find medical support immediately. Maintain a file of all your medical records and accounts for your treatment.
- Consult a Lawyer: Appoint a personal injury attorney with specialized knowledge of fire damage claims. With legal expertise on your side, you have a better chance of receiving fair compensation. You will also experience less strain due to unfamiliarity with the process.
- Preserve Evidence: Keeping a solid paper trail of your witness statements, photographic evidence, and all other forms of proof of damage is advisable. You need to establish liability, and all forms of substantiation can be invaluable during the claims process.
- Stay Organized: Because you may be in shock or even injured, remaining in control of the paperwork is sensible. Create a safe and accessible filing system for all your expenses and hang onto every shred of proof until your case is resolved. Keep a timeline of doctor’s visits, telephone calls with your lawyers, and other events that withhold you from working and earning an income. Keep a journal of your emotional and physical journey during and after the fire to help your claim for emotional distress.
