If you were injured in a motor vehicle crash you may be filing a personal injury lawsuit or an auto insurance claim. Filing a claim will help you receive the compensation you need for your medical bills, pain and suffering, and lost wages. The information in an accident report can help to strengthen your claim or case and ensure you receive the compensation you deserve. A personal injury attorney will use some of the information in an accident report to prove the other driver should be held accountable for their negligence. This information can include the law enforcement officer’s opinion concerning which party they believe was liable for the accident, a description of your injuries and vehicle damage, any citations issued at the time of the accident, road and weather conditions, and more.
