❓FAQ Friday❓

What happens when you are involved in an automobile accident and no police report is prepared? 🤔

While it can be easier to exchange information in hopes to resolve claims on your own, not contacting law enforcement to document the crash can leave you in a "he said - she said" battle with a defendant driver.

Our experienced attorneys are equipped to handle situations just like this. The steps immediately following a collision are crucial to the outcome of your ultimate resolution.

Let the experts handle the headache.

Proper documentation is vital in personal injury cases. You need to be able to prove when the accident occurred, how it happened and who is at fault. Keeping track of evidence is critical to backing up your legal plan.

Accident reports, incident reports, photographs, videos, medical records, statements and receipts are all a part of this process. Keeping a diary of your pain and symptoms can also be important. This part of your claim can be tedious and demanding, but crucial to the outcome of your case.

We know it can be overwhelming to take on a task like this alone. Our attorneys and staff are here to help.

"There is no replacement for the feeling you get when you are able to genuinely connect with someone. Working at Gaar has allowed me to meet so many people who are just looking for someone to understand whatever it is that brought them to our doorstep. It still amazes me that I get to hold their hands and walk these amazing humans through what is sometimes the hardest and most painful situations of their lives. My real job is compassion.
