Write It Down
Write down exactly what occurred when you were injured. Note the time, day, and any witnesses that were present.

Talk about any safety precautions you took prior to the injury, and any steps you took after to mitigate the damages inflicted.
Gather Bills
Keep all your medical bills, medication costs, and other bills in a safe spot. You will want to be able to have them handy when calculating your damages.
Call an Attorney
Research attorneys in your area that deal with personal injury. Most attorneys offer a free initial consultation to discuss your case. Bring important documents with you and write down any questions prior to the meeting so you remember them. A good attorney will listen to what occurred, look at your documents, and then propose a strategy moving forward. It is important that you do not wait to contact an attorney, as there is a strict time limit for reporting workplace injuries.
