This information can be used by a personal injury attorney to help you receive the compensation you deserve for the harm you have suffered. This important information can include the responding police officer’s accident investigation findings, which detail how and why the accident took place and which driver was negligent, a diagram of the accident scene, any citations issued or arrests made, and a description of the injuries you sustained in the accident, a description of vehicle damage and personal property damage, and more.
