police officer's account of the accident [5], you must write every
necessary details of the incident on your own. This will be especially

investigating officer might also take picture of the accident [13].

place. This may aid you facilitate your claim before your own
insurance or the guilty party's, in case his insurance will not pay
or if there is not enough insurance coverage.

accident [15]. Also, get insurance information from the other party
including telephone numbers.

things, it is strongly recommended that you hire a car accident [16]
investigation lawyer [17]. A third unrelated party to the accident
[18] can look more objectively. This objectivity and focus can result

after your own or the other party's insurance company. When lawsuit
arise, a lawyer [20]'s participation will be very indispensable
