In the weeks after a serious wreck or industrial incident, key evidence can disappear quickly:
- Dashcam and traffic camera footage may be overwritten or restricted.
- Witness memories fade—especially when people are commuting or working rotating shifts.
- Jobsite documentation (safety logs, equipment checks, training records) can be archived.
- Insurance adjusters may contact you early with forms that seem harmless but can complicate later disputes.
Because catastrophic injuries typically require months to understand fully, getting legal help early can prevent missed opportunities to document what happened and how it caused long-term impairment.
