Butler Kahn

The minutes right after a car crash are chaotic, and what you do in them can shape everything that follows.

First, check for injuries and call 911. In Georgia, a crash involving injury, death, or serious property damage is supposed to be reported.

Next, photograph the vehicles, the road, and the scene before anything gets moved. Get the other driver's insurance information and the names of any witnesses.

Then be careful with the insurance calls. A quick 'I'm fine' or a recorded statement can be used against you later, even when you are genuinely hurt.

You do not have to figure this out alone. Talk to a lawyer before you talk to the other driver's insurer.

Happy Fourth of July from all of us at Butler Kahn!

The roads and the water get crowded tonight, and impaired drivers are part of that. If you are celebrating, plan your ride home before the first drink and watch out for everyone else out there.

Have a safe and happy Independence Day.
