If you get hurt at a North Port gas station, there are a few steps to take:

  • Get medical help: When you are injuries are severe or life-threatening, seek emergency medical treatment. But even if your accident did not seem that bad and you feel ok, it’s still a good idea to get medical help. You may not feel the pain of a back or neck injury until hours, or days, later. If you don’t get checked out soon after your accident, you could aggravate the injury.
  • Report your accident: Always report the accident to the store manager or employee in charge. You should get a copy of the accident report filled out.
  • Documentation: Get the names and phone numbers of any witnesses to the accident. You should also write down the names of the gas station employees that you spoke with. It may be beneficial to take down some notes about the accident for future reference.
  • Pictures: With your smartphone, take pictures of where the accident happened. Try to get shots documenting what caused the accident, such as broken pavement or debris in the aisle.
  • Get legal advice: It is always helpful to find out what, if any, legal rights you have when you have been injured. If you get hurt at a gas station that a big company owns, their attorneys may offer a fast settlement to close out your case.

A quick resolution may sound like a good idea, but if your injuries are severe, you could find yourself without enough money to finish your medical treatment. Or you may find yourself stuck financially if you must miss working longer than you expected. A quick resolution may not consider these factors, but your attorney will.
