In a collision report, you’ll find the following information:
Police officers will typically file a report within seventy-two hours after a simple accident. However, it can take up to fourteen business days before your report is available. In some cases, if the accident involved a fatality, minor, personal injuries, or a crime, it can take several months before your report is released.
This type of critical police report information can be very valuable if you plan to pursue compensation from the at-fault driver. The report includes the responding police officer’s unbiased opinion regarding who they believe was responsible for the crash. Additionally, if the other driver was issued citations or arrested for drunk driving, reckless driving, distracted driving, etc, this can help strengthen your claim or personal injury lawsuit and can improve your chances of receiving compensation for damages.
If you decide to hire a personal injury attorney, you can provide them with a copy of your incident report and any other evidence you have, to help strengthen your insurance claim. An experienced car accident lawyer can use this document to build a strong auto accident injury case and negotiate a fair settlement.
Tell us the crash date and the responding agency and we will help you find the report.
