Call the Police

If you are in an accident, a police officer may be an invaluable resource in establishing which driver(s) are at fault. Insurance companies do refer to the police report in deciding liability. Before you give a statement, it is a good idea to speak with your lawyer about your car, truck, or motorcycle accident. 

​

Gather Essential Information

-Name and address of driver

-License plate number

-Insurance carrier

-Name, Address, phone number, and email of witness

-Take pictures of the entire scene and vehicles involved

​

Only Share Essential Information

Only share the essential information with the other drivers involved in the car, truck, or motorcycle accident. An at-fault driver's insurance company will often attempt to get your statement to use against you in later proceedings.

​

Seek Medical Treatment

If you are in a car, truck, or motorcycle accident, injuries do not always result in immediately noticeable pain. Consult a doctor or hospital if there is the slightest chance you may be injured from a car, truck, or other motorcycle accident. Contact Jack Ryan Terziu immediately for more information about your right to choose your own medical provider.
