What Should I Do After a Car Accident?

Being involved in a car accident can be overwhelming and frightening. There are certain things you should do after an accident to protect both your health and legal rights. These steps should be taken if you are in an accident:

Check yourself and your passengers for injuries.
Move your vehicle out of traffic and move yourself to safety.
Turn on your hazard lights.
Get medical help. This is an important step, even if you don’t look or feel hurt. Injuries are not always apparent, and only a medical professional can make an informed assessment. Quick access to medical attention means that any injuries you do have are treated and properly documented.
Contact the Garfield Heights Police Department (GHPD). It is important to report the accident. The police can assist with managing the scene, creating an official report, and documenting the incident.
When both you and the other driver are safely off the road, it is important to exchange information. You should avoid discussing the accident. The information you should collect includes the name and contact information of the other driver, insurance information, and the other driver’s license number.
If it is safe to do so, you should document the accident scene. Collect pictures of the scene, including any traffic signs and roadway conditions. Include photos of damage to your vehicle and any injuries you have suffered.
Contact a car accident lawyer and schedule a consultation to evaluate your case.

I was injured in a car accident in September of last year. Mike and his staff were fantastic! Very professional, always attentive to my needs, quickly responsive and overall extremely caring! My case was recently settled and I was more than satisfied. I will definitely be recommending The Czack law firm to everyone who I cross paths with. Thank you again Mike!

- Timothy D.

Our case, involving my husband’s severe traumatic brain injury, was far from easy, with no certain outcome. From our very first meeting, Mike and Tom treated us with respect, honesty, and deep compassion. They listened patiently to our concerns, explained the legal process in clear terms, and guided us through every step with care. What stood out most was their relentless fight for us. They worked tirelessly, digging deep to uncover critical information others might have overlooked, and their thorough preparation and constant communication made us feel like their top priority. Their skill and persistence was what was needed for our case…to the very end (and even after), they were professional and dedicated. They helped our family ease the burden of a life changing accident. Beyond their legal expertise, Mike and Tom showed genuine kindness, becoming true friends during one of our darkest times. We’ll always be grateful for the time, energy, and heart they poured into helping us. If you need attorneys who are the best of the best, Czack Law Firm is the team to trust. Five stars for sure!

- Michele Kowalczyk T.

My family has been a client of Michael Czack’s law firm since I was a small child, and throughout the years, he has consistently provided us with outstanding legal support and guidance. Whether it was helping us through personal injury matters or giving sound legal advice during difficult times, Mike has always been incredibly helpful, professional, and compassionate. He takes the time to truly listen and make sure his clients feel supported. He always takes the time to check in. His dedication and care go beyond being an attorney — he has been a trusted advocate for my entire family for decades. I can’t recommend him highly enough. We are grateful for everything he has done for us over the years.

Mike has represented me since 2001 for BWC & personal injury claims with most recent being a car accident on 8-1-19.

Mike has many satisfied clients but he treats you like you’re his only case. Thank you, Mike for all the years of service & friendship to me & my family.

- Christina L.

Mike represented my husband and I after he was in a head on collision and was injured. Mike and his team did a great job working with the insurance companies for both the other driver and taking care of the medical bills. He worked hard to get us the settlement we deserved. They were professional and fair. We would highly recommend The Czack Law Firm.

- Rachel S.

Mike is a great guy and did a great job for us. We consider him family now!

- Mary S.

The Czack Law Firm has helped many family members over the past couple of years and all were with very fair settlements so I felt confident in talking to him about my injury in a car accident. He gave me great advice along the way and really cares about his clients. Mike and his staff are very attentive, courteous and friendly so they make it easy to ask questions and keep the lines of communications open. You can trust the Czack Law Firm to manage your case and negotiate on your behalf. I highly recommend them!

Mike and the Firm are not just attorneys, they are people who actually care about you as a person, he is not just there for a pay day, he will do what he can to help you, and if it is something simple, he will let you know what you can do so you are not spending money on an attorney if you don't need to. He is the most honest and caring attorney I have ever dealt with. Thank you, Mike for everything!

- Matt H.

I have known Mike Czack for 23 years. He has represented me in 2 different cases. Both of which I won. He will always go the extra mile for his clients. He will be available for you day or night and work hard to win for you and get justice. I would recommend Mike Czack to ANYONE, and I have in fact referred many people to him. He is a class act. He will treat you like a friend/family and fight for what is right. He is a fantastic person and outstanding and hands down one of the best attorneys in the greater Cleveland area.

- Aimee E.

Mr. Czack and everyone who works at his firm are some of the nicest people i have ever met.

More than thorough, great communication, just all around grateful for them and all they have done for us!

- Eryn S.

All of my family's dealings with the Czack Law Firm have been 100% favorable and professional. Mike Czack is a trustworthy, attentive and proficient attorney. I don't hesitate to recommend him to all my family and friends.

- Tamekia W.

Mike helped me with an accident recently and has been someone we have used for years. He is caring and understanding. Always returned phone calls and made the situation as stress free as possible. Thanks again for everything you have helped me with throughout many years!

- Kimberly F.

I thought my husband and daughter's horrific vehicular collision was going to be a non-contested claim with the two carriers involved. However, it didn't matter how documented the injuries were, or how many doctors we saw. The Insurance Carriers don't care. They bank on you giving in and giving up. I called around and all I heard was settle, settle, settle. What can attorneys do that I can't do on my own? Not much. What makes Mike different from ALL THE REST? He not only FIGHTS for what's right, he also stands behind you till the end. Mike is the only attorney I'll refer my friends and family to. He not only fought for us, he stood by our side the entire way after we found out the Carriers weren't going to budge. Well, he got them to budge! Thank you, Mike!

- Babs M.

I highly, without a doubt would recommend this law firm... Mr. Czack is very professional and explains everything with great details... his staff are also top notch... if he can't help with your case he will help find someone who can... when he says call if you need anything, he means it!! Mr. Czack is also very caring and listens to you. Overall if I need anything, attorney wise, he definitely is first on my list!!! Thank you Mr. Czack and staff with my case!!

- Dionne M.

Mike did an amazing job with my case. Very professional and very hard working to get the best outcome! I would highly recommend because everyone at the Czak Law Firm goes above and beyond! Thank you again.

- Marcus C.

I cannot even begin to describe how amazing the Czack Law Firm, specifically Mike himself, truly is. Mike worked a case for my parents when I was just a little kid. After I was married a couple years ago, my husband and I were in a terrible car accident in which Mike didn't hesitate to take on the case for us. Four months later my husband, who was just as fond of Mike, passed. There is absolutely no other person I would have wanted to take on this case too, especially with him knowing my husband himself. He knew just the right experts to get me in connection with and we all made one hell of a team working together as one. Mike is beyond one of the nicest and most personable people I have ever had the pleasure of knowing through the years and been able to work with. He always knew what to say when times got emotional and heated to be able to ease my mind. He will be with you all the way, answers every question, eases every worry, and all around ends up becoming a great friend. Although I am glad the dust has finally settled with both cases, I will miss Mike. I couldn't be more thankful for such an amazing attorney. I already recommend him to everyone I know and I will continue to do so! As always, thanks for everything Mike, couldn't have done it without you!

- Riley M.

Mike was great working with me and my wife through her injury settlement. He was available to us at any time and was a great resource for us so that we made sure that we got fair treatment from our insurance company.

- Josh S.

Mike hands down is an outstanding guy. He is hardworking, fair, genuine, and stays in constant communication with you throughout the process. He really becomes a friend in the process. Im glad I used the Czack Law Firm, and would recommend to all. Thanks again Mike.

- Alfredo G.

I highly recommend Mike Czack and his Law Firm. November 2016 I was involved in a serious car accident. I was hit head on by another driver. From this accident I had broken ribs, fractured vertebrae, a broken foot and internal bleeding. I felt lucky to be alive. I was never in this type of accident in my life. I had no idea my health insurance wouldn’t pay the extensive bills from this accident. Mike handled everything. He met in person with me on several occasions. He responded to emails, texts and phone calls. He was on top of everything. I never felt like I wasn’t a priority. I have nothing negative to say about working with The Czack Law Firm. Mike is A genuine person and he cares. It was so nice not dealing with medical providers and collections. Mike’s office handles everything from day one. Mike explained everything to me every step of the way. I pray I will never have to be in this situation again but no doubt who I’d call First.

- Kathleen N.

Mike and his team are top notch, they go the extra mile to make sure your taken care of and their advice is spot on !! myself and wife are forever grateful for the job they did!! Thank you Mike and The Team

- Rob Stibbs S.

Mike did a great job for my dad. He was involved in a very serious car crash. Mike handled everything personally. He answered all our questions and provided our family with continual case updates.

Could not say enough good things - Mike was in contact with me throughout the duration of my case, if I needed anything, I never had a problem reaching the office and never felt like I was a burden.

Could not be happier - thanks a million!!!!

Their honesty, integrity and professionalism! The concern for their clients needs is always a priority.

- Elores C.

Mr. Czack – Thanks for being so “super” to me and my family. It’s obvious why you received the Super Lawyer title once again. Way to go!

- K.S.

Mr. Czack – When we learned that the car that hit E head-on was uninsured, we thought that was the end of the road. Little did we obviously know about insurance laws. We are so grateful for your legal help and the personal touch you gave us throughout her case. What we thought was a total disaster turned out ok because of you and the people that work for you!

- The J. Family

Did great job with our case – no issues.

- Ron and Diane J.

We wanted to say thanks for all you did for our family. J’s accident changed our lives, but you and your staff did all you could to walk us through how to handle these changes. You made a horrible situation into a positive for our family.

- M. and J.

Thanks so much for the great time at your recent event. It means a lot to me that you help by doing things for the Ronald McDonald House. I am finished with radiation, at home, and hopefully cured. Have a great day and thanks again.

- J.S.

I just finished up and signed all the final paperwork on B’s estate. It seems like it took forever, but I’m glad it’s all over and worked out the way it did. I just want to thank you for all that you did to step in and get the ball rolling. By working with you from the beginning, having an understanding lawyer made the process a little easier. Thank you.

- M.K.

I am writing to thank you for the great job you did winning my case. I am grateful to have met you and have you as my lawyer. After what happened at work, I never thought my life would get back to anywhere near normal, but you’ve greatly assisted in doing that. Thank you so much and best of luck to you and your staff.

- R.G.

I cannot thank you enough for all that you did for us. I appreciate the time and your concern you showed to my husband and me. As unfortunate as it was, we could not have asked for a better experience. Thank you so much. We have to stay in touch! We wish you the best of luck!

- M. and C.D.

We never used an attorney before so we were nervous. Fortunately we knew a former client of your firm and they gave us your name, and we couldn’t be happier with how things turned out. Thank you, Mr. Czack.

- Carol and Lou D.

I’d highly recommend The Czack Law Firm, LLC, to anyone needing help with an injury case. You came highly recommended and didn’t disappoint. You and the staff were very knowledgeable and were always available when I had a question.

- D.A. and Family

We were referred to you by our probate attorney for my wife’s serious accident. Everyone was always professional and did what you said you would do. We actually got a much better settlement than we ever thought we’d get so that was a bonus. Will recommend.

- Jeff T.

Mr. Czack – We feel blessed that our internet search led us to you and your law firm. After my husband T was injured during the building construction at GT Building, you made us feel comfortable from the first time we met and then got results we never thought were possible. We will refer your firm to anyone we come across Mr. Czack. Thank you.

- M & T

Mr. Czack, you took a horrible situation that we thought was hopeless and turned our lives back in the right direction. Your approach to our daughter’s situation was unique and something the other two firms we first met with never thought of. We will always be thankful to you and your staff for your hard work and caring attitude.

- T.S.

I would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation to The Czack Law firm for a job well done in handling my case.

The legal secretary Annie Marie Hobbs along with the other secretary was always compassionate and professional. I would strongly recommend this Law Firm to handle your Case! Thanks Again

- T.C.

Mike – I thought your firm provided outstanding care and legal services. From our initial meeting to final papers, you and your staff always focused on me and my case. I’d give you 10 out of 10.

I had the opportunity to work with Tom on my case for some time now…and I am nothing short of impressed. Tom was respectful, professional and willing to do what it takes to get the job done. He and the entire Czack law firm fight for the clients and will go the extra mile to make sure their clients are happy. Can’t thank Tom and Mr. Czack and the entire Czack Law Firm for taking my case and sticking with me and my family during that hard time! Amazing Law Firm!!!!
