However, if it was a fatal accident, a crime was committed, or there was significant bodily injuries involved, a report may be unavailable for several weeks or months as officers conduct an accident investigation.
While it may seem straightforward how the accident occurred and which party was responsible, if you’re filing an auto insurance claim or personal injury lawsuit, it’s your responsibility to prove that the other driver was negligent and should be held financially liable for your injuries. This can be very challenging, especially if you have decided to take on the insurance company alone without the help of a personal injury attorney. If you were involved in an auto accident that was not your fault, your first step should be to obtain a copy of your Cupertino crash report. Crash reports can help prove liability since they contain important accident details including the opinion of the responding deputy sheriff regarding which driver they believed was negligent. Other helpful information includes a description of vehicle damage and a description of your injuries, which can help strengthen your claim and prove that your injuries and the damage to your vehicle was directly linked to the accident. If you do decide to work with an accident attorney, they will use the information found in an accident report to effectively negotiate the settlement amount you deserve.
