Evidence Needed To Prove a Car Accident Caused Damages

When you are in a car accident, a variety of damages can occur. Damages can range from your own injuries, passengers' injuries, and your car damages. Bills and invoices can pileup in response. Depending on your own injuries, you may be unable to work while you recover.

If you have or are experiencing this, you may qualify for compensation from the at-fault party to help pay for these damages. When filing a claim, you'll need evidence to prove these damages occurred from the auto accident.

Evidence You'll Need When Filing a Claim For Damages

To make sure you have the appropriate evidence when filing a claim for your damages, you should seek the help of a personal injury attorney. An attorney will have worked on claims similar to yours in the past and know what is needed to have a successful claim.

Working with a lawyer means having all the right evidence. This could include things like:

  • Invoices and bills for personal injuries and car damages.
  • Statements and contact information from those who may have seen the accident.
  • Pictures of the accident, damages, and your injuries.
  • The police report filled out at the scene of the accident by the reporting police officer.
