You need to keep in mind that photographs are one of the most powerful types of evidence when defending your personal injury case. Thanks to camera phones, almost all of us can take photos of car accidents right after they happen. 

Here are some valuable tips that will strengthen your case:

#1 Document the damage: Take photos of everything, especially minor details. Includes interior and exterior damage to the vehicles involved, injuries, witnesses, evidence of the conditions surrounding the accident, tire marks, etc.

#2 Take photos of your injuries: Injuries related to car accidents can cost you thousands of dollars in emergency medical care and rehabilitation. Take pictures of any injuries you and your passengers sustained during the crash as soon as possible.

#3 Take Panoramic Photos of the Accident Scene: Panoramic shots help entirely place the accident within the scene, providing a helpful overview that your insurer can use to understand how the accident occurred.

#5 Cover all angles of the vehicle: Insurers can, and often will dispute photographic evidence taken from only one angle.

#6 Make sure the photos are clear. Avoid taking slightly shaky pictures, as they can be challenging to use as evidence.

#7 Call a friend: If you have suffered severe injuries that prevent you from taking your photos, ask a friend or family member to visit the scene to take pictures.
