Essential Action Checklists: After an Accident or Before Your Immigration Consultation
Switch between our two practical preparation guides below to see the exact steps that protect your Louisiana injury claim or streamline your family immigration consultation.
Seek Immediate Medical Evaluation
Be evaluated by a physician or urgent care provider right away, even if symptoms initially seem mild. Prompt medical documentation links your injuries directly to the collision or workplace incident.
Secure the Official Crash or Incident Report
Obtain the police report item number or workplace incident report, and preserve scene photographs, dashcam footage, and witness contact details.
Decline Recorded Insurance Adjuster Statements
Do not give a recorded statement or sign broad medical authorizations for an opposing insurance adjuster before consulting Attorney Holly Lamarche.
Track All Medical Bills & Missed Work
Keep copies of treatment records, pharmacy receipts, vehicle repair estimates, and pay stubs showing lost wages to substantiate your full damages.
Passports, Visas & I-94 Arrival Records
Gather all current and expired passports, prior U.S. visas, border crossing cards, and official I-94 arrival/departure records.
Certified Civil Vital Records
Bring birth certificates, marriage certificates, and any prior divorce decrees needed to establish qualifying family relationships.
Prior USCIS Notices & Receipts (Form I-797)
Provide copies of any previous USCIS receipt or approval notices, Employment Authorization Documents (EAD), or agency correspondence.
