Proving Negligence

Protecting your best interest when pursuing a claim

Here are ways you can protect yourself when injury strikes.

Don’t give the insurance company a statement. They will ask you to give them as much information about the accident as you can — but saying too much could come back to haunt you. Contact a Pittsburgh personal injury lawyer before you say anything.
Don’t delay treatment. After an accident, seek medical care immediately. Delaying treatment can signal that your injuries are not serious enough to pursue a claim.
Save medical records, pay stubs, photographs, bills, and receipts. A personal injury claim must be supported by the proper documentation.

Documenting the incident

Document what’s happened as well as you can. Evidence is crucial.

Call 911.
Photograph the scene of the accident and any visible wounds.
Write down what you remember about the accident.
Identify potential witnesses. Take down their full name, phone number or email address, and insurance information.

Mitch Dugan is a great workers comp layer. he knows how the system works and works to help you. I would use him over and over again.

Todd, Pittsburgh Workers’ Comp Case

Mitch was the best. I was going through much stress being hurt and basically unloved by my employer. He was always there when I needed his help. He always called me back if he was in court. He was humorous sometimes and that aleved alot of anxiety. I was satisfied with his suggestions and guidance. Very professional. He always was able to explain things to me and was very nice. He also obtained a very nice settlement for me. Thank you Mitch.
