Introduction
After a car accident, it’s easy to feel powerless. Between medical bills, missed work, and endless insurance questions, most victims don’t know where to turn. On top of the stress, you might also be wondering: “What are my rights?”
At CAVR (Constitutional Advocates for Victims’ Rights), we believe every accident victim deserves to know they have options. This isn’t about complicated legal talk — it’s about understanding that you’re not alone, and resources are available to guide you forward.
You Have the Right to Care
Your health comes first. Even if the accident feels “minor,” you have the right to:
Get medical treatment for your injuries.
Seek follow-up care like physical therapy or counseling.
Keep records of how the crash has affected your daily life.
Too many victims downplay their pain or delay treatment — but your recovery matters. If you need help finding medical resources, CAVR can connect you with trusted providers.
You Have the Right to Support
The impact of an accident goes beyond the crash itself. Victims often face:
Lost wages from time off work
Overwhelming bills
Emotional challenges like anxiety or fear of driving
You don’t have to carry that burden alone. There are programs, financial aid options, and support networks available. CAVR can point you in the right direction and connect you with resources you may not know exist.
You Have the Right to Be Heard
It’s easy to feel ignored after a crash — by insurance companies, by employers, even by people around you who don’t fully understand what you’re going through. But you deserve to have your story heard.
Some victims may choose to explore legal resources.
Others simply need help navigating insurance or understanding their options.
While we don’t offer legal advice directly, CAVR can connect you with the right advocates and organizations to make sure your voice is never lost in the shuffle.
