Here is what to do when a child gets into an accident in Washington D.C.
1. Call 911 for help. The ambulance, fire service, or police will typically make a record of any
calls received and the children that were injured. This is usually a part of their official
report.
2. Check for witnesses. It may be chaotic after an accident has occurred involving a child.
Many times, witnesses memory may fade. It is important to get the name, address, phone
number and email address of any witnesses that can help you in the future.
3. After a child is injured, there may be inquiries from governmental bodies. Tell the truth
about how the injuries happened.
4. Seek Medical Care. Washington DC Children should be taken to the nearest emergency
department in case of any injuries. Medical professionals will write medical records that will
later be used in any future liability discussions with insurance companies.
5. Contact The Dakota Law Firm at 202-878-9163 or email [email protected] for
