Download our printable car accident checklist, so you won’t forget what to do after a car accident.
How can a car accident lawyer help with the insurance company?
Because the police often conduct an investigation and file a report shortly after the accident, it is vital for your car accident lawyer to immediately begin our work: collecting evidence, interviewing witnesses, and determining the circumstances that led to your accident.
We will obtain the police report and review it for errors and inaccuracies. By collaborating with a network of investigators and medical experts, your car accident lawyer will diligently work to establish the other driver’s liability and build a successful case.
Be aware that the other driver’s insurance company will be doing the same in building a case against you, including any liability you may have regarding the case.
What if the insurance company contacts you for a statement?
But what should you do if the other driver’s insurance company directly contacts you for a statement? You are not required to give them a statement. More often than not, the other insurance company is calling to obtain information which may be used against you as you seek to recover losses. Respectfully decline their request and inform them that if they would like a copy of your statement, they may contact your insurance carrier directly. If this situation should arise, please contact your car accident lawyer and provide this information for your case.
