Should I do an investigation of the facts of the accident on my own?
In the absence of extraordinary circumstances it is not advisable to do an investigation of the facts of an automobile accident on your own. First, an experienced investigator knows the important steps to take and the best way to gather the needed information or proof. Second, your activities as an "investigator" will be characterized later by an insurance company adjustor or attorney as proof that you were determined to make a claim no matter how serious the injury turned out to be. Third, a professional investigator can testify effectively to interviews and other results of his efforts as a witness independent from you. Fourth, your energies immediately after an accident that results in an injury should properly be directed to other matters, such as seeking medical treatment.
