If you are the victim of an accident or other
incident in which you suffered injuries, please contact Attorney
Vanderhorst right away. The sooner you hire an attorney, the more
effective your attorney can be in obtaining just and fair compensation for
you. At the beginning of a case, witness statements should be obtained,
photographs of injuries should be taken, and medical care should be
rendered as soon as possible. Evidence may be lost if not preserved in a
timely manner such as the investigation of the scene of an accident. There
are also important deadlines that must be observed with regard to
presenting you injury claim. With government entities, the time period is
much shorter than it is for private entities.
It is essential that injury victims received
prompt medical care to document their injuries as soon after the event as
possible. It is also important to obtain follow-up medical care and
physical therapy or chiropractic treatments to assist the patient in
returning to good health. Any period of disability from employment must be
documents so that aspect of your claim will be considered when it comes
time to settle your case.
If you have been involved in an injury-causing
event please call Attorney Vanderhorst as soon as possible at his
Porterville office, (559) 781-0506 or at his Delano office (661) 725-0506.
