If you were involved or witnessed this crash: What to do next
- Get medical care—right away. Even “minor” symptoms can mask whiplash or internal injuries. If you left the scene without treatment, visit Kaweah Health or your provider as soon as possible.
- Document everything. Save photos, dashcam clips, contact info for witnesses, and your medical records and receipts.
- Request the official report. When available, obtain the Visalia PD or CHP report number and keep it with your records.
- Speak with a local attorney before the insurance calls start. Insurance adjusters are trained to minimize payouts or lock you into a statement that can be used against you. The NRC Law team can handle those calls for you.
