If you were involved in an injury accident that was not your fault, you must pursue compensation to cover the cost of all accident-related damages. Getting a copy of your San Francisco County crash report can help your claim by proving the other driver should be held liable for their negligence. While getting a copy of your report isn’t a guarantee that you’ll receive the compensation you deserve, it can increase your chances of proving liability.
The information in an initial report includes the reporting police officer’s accident investigation findings which detail how and why the accident occurred and which driver the officer believed was at fault, witness statements, weather and road conditions, statements made by drivers and passengers, a diagram of the accident site, a description of your injuries and vehicle damage, and more.
Personal injury lawyer
As you can see, this important report can help your personal injury attorney build a stronger case and prove you deserve compensation for your injuries and other accident-related damages.
DWI, DUI, Other Criminal Charges
If the other driver was arrested for a DUI, DWI, or other criminal charges, you must still pursue compensation by filing an insurance claim or personal injury lawsuit. The other driver’s criminal case will be separate from your civil case. A personal injury attorney will use the information in your auto accident report, in addition to other legal documentation, to help you negotiate a fair settlement for your pain and suffering, lost wages, vehicle damage, and other losses.
