> Getting injured in a car crash while away from your home state can create a confusing situation that makes it difficult to get compensated for your damages and losses. Find out how to pursue your claim by working with a Boise out-of-state accident lawyer.
While Boise might not be known as a major tourist destination, it does attract its fair share of out-of-state visitors. Being a visiting driver can often mean being unfamiliar with the local laws, roads, and traffic, leading to an increased risk of being in an accident.
When away from home, the aftermath of a crash can be an overwhelming experience, especially if your injuries are catastrophic or life-threatening. You might have concerns about the insurance benefits of the other driver, medical expenses, and how you will receive the compensation you deserve.
If you were injured in a car accident while visiting Idaho but are a resident of another state, contact an experienced Boise out-of-state accident lawyer who will help you get the compensation you need to pay for your recovery.
Building Your Out-of-State Car Accident Case
If you live outside of Idaho, there are important factors you need to know if you are injured in an accident while in Boise and the surrounding area. To protect yourself, it’s worth the time and effort to do your due diligence and follow these important steps:
- Always call the police as soon as an accident happens. A police report will be written to ensure the details of the accident are documented.
- Seek medical care or call an ambulance as soon as possible.
- Take photographs of the damage to your car and any injuries you sustained as a result of the crash.

Client Reviews
“I was concerned with all the paperwork”
Before calling your firm I had 2 big worries. One was I didn’t want to do more paper work, and that fear was resolved when I had to do very little, but Craig Swapp and Assoc. did most of it, and when I did have to come in to sign papers they worked around the times I could do it. Worry 2 was I didn’t want people to think I was “sue happy” and that I was just out to get money. I just wanted my bills to be paid for that were from the accident, and that was resolved I think by Mr. Wes Mortenson and Theresa because they listened to what I had to say.

"I would hire them in a second"
My biggest fear was not having all the expenses caused by the accident paid for in full. I was assured they would be taken care of but I admit I was skeptical. When we wrapped everything up (which happened quicker than I was originally told) I had extra money in my pocket. I honestly thought there was a catch but my attorney explained everything to me in detail. If I am ever in that position again I’ll be giving Craig Swapp a call.

"I was afraid of the fees"
I was afraid of the fees I would have to pay a lawyer. I waited over a year before hiring your law firm. I finally reached out to your online help where they were able to help me understand the process and what would happen. In all honesty I absolutely loved working with the individuals that were involved in my case. They were genuine & heartfelt about my case. It felt as though they really cared and were concerned about me, not just as a client but as a person.

"I was afraid that my issue was too small"
I was afraid that my issue was too small to be handled, and that it would just be rejected. Or that I’d end up having to pay for my medical expenses and any of your teams expenses. I would definitely answer yes, it was resolved! I wasn’t ever made out to feel like my little issue didn’t matter, and my expenses were paid for- just what I wanted/needed.

"I am very pleased with the results"
My biggest fear was that it would be pointless to pursue legal action in my case. I felt like maybe I didn’t have much of a case. After speaking with Paul, I realize it was not of my own fault and that others can be held responsible for the pain and suffering I went through.
