Should I file a police report after an accident?

Yes, and don’t wait. A police report creates an official record of the accident and can be critical evidence for your case. Insist on an investigation at the scene, and report all injuries to the officer. For every injury or death claim, there is a deadline called a “statute of limitations” by which you must settle or file your car accident claim with the court, or the claim will be forever barred. In Washington, the period for bringing an injury or accidental death claim is usually three years from the date of the auto accident, but there are some exceptions, like claims for children under the age of 18. The sooner following the accident you can consult with Abeyta Nelson Injury Law, the more we can do to help you get a good settlement.
