Boating is a fun activity, but it is not without its risks. Read this blog to learn about several types of boating accidents that can happen to you.

Every car accident happens fast and unexpectedly. The immediate moments after a car accident are adrenaline-fueled chaos. You may be in significant pain. Because of this, it is best to have a plan for what to do if a car accident happens before it happens. 1. Call the police immediately. Many times the at-fault driver will tell you, 'Let's not involve the police'. The at-fault driver might even offer you some cash right on the spot or offer to get your car fixed themselves if you do not call the police. Do not listen to the other person. The police will document what happened, and they will gather and exchange the necessary information among the drivers. But even if you have called the police... 2. Get information, especially regarding the other driver and their insurance. Even if you have called the police, collect all the information at the scene you can, especially regarding the other driver. Ask to take a picture of their driver's license and proof of insurance. The insurance information is critical to making a claim to get repairs or pay for medical expenses. Take pictures of their car, both the damage to it and the license plate. Take photos of your car, particularly the damage to it. Ask for the driver's address and/or phone number. Ask for witnesses' names and phone numbers or a business card. If you have called the police, you might think, well the police will get all that information, and that is true. But, what if the other driver just decides to flee before the police arrive? It happens. 3. Get medical treatment for your injuries as soon as possible. Commonly people feel pain after an accident but think it will heal on its own if they don't have an obvious serious injury, like a broken bone. Then after a few weeks of the pain not going away, they decide to seek care. The other driver's insurance company will call this a gap in treatment and argue you must not have been that injured if you waited so long to get treatment. Or, they may say you hurt yourself doing something else but want to blame it on the accident. These can be strong arguments against your case, particularly the longer you go between the accident and getting treatment. Get checked out as soon as possible after an accident if you are feeling any pain. 4. Call Craig P. Kenny & Associates and speak with an attorney as soon as possible. Our law firm has been helping Nevada car accident victims for almost 30 years. Our attorneys and staff have traveled the road of a car accident's aftermath every day for those 30 years. We are aware of laws, pitfalls, and windfalls that most people would not know. Just a few examples: Did you know there can be several layers of insurance available to pay for your medical treatment and pain and suffering after a car accident? Does it make a difference if the other driver was arrested for driving under the influence? What if you are working when you are in a car accident? Do you have a workers' compensation claim, a car accident claim, or both? What if the other driver's insurance company refuses your claim and you have to file a lawsuit? At Craig P. Kenny & Associates, we have dealt with all of these situations many times over many years. 5. Do not talk to or give statements to the other driver's insurance company. The other driver's insurance company has a legal obligation to protect their insured. When they take statements from you, they are trying to protect their insured and the insurance company's money. They are not acting as your friend. If you hire Craig P. Kenny & Associates, we will talk to the other driver's insurance company for you. We know what to ask, what to say, and what not to say. 6. Do not attempt to negotiate a quick settlement with the insurance company. This is what the other driver's insurance company wants you to do. Sign away all your future rights for a pittance. If it turns out that you have a hidden injury like a herniated disc in your spine that will cause you pain for the rest of your life and might require surgery, it is too late if you take their money and sign their paperwork. You released all claims, even if you did not know about the injuries at the time. The law does allow you to back out of such a deal for a short period of time. But, you have to revoke the deal in writing and send back the money quickly. Please have a plan of what to do if you are in a car accident before you are in a car accident. Make part of that plan to call Craig P. Kenny & Associates, where clients are treated with honesty and sincerity.
