- Contact information for the at-fault driver
- Contact information for his insurance company
- Notes and diagrams from the investigative officer
- The accident narrative and vehicle descriptions
Your lawyer will use the information in your crash report to prove the other driver was at fault and that his aggressive driving behavior caused the collision that led to your injuries.
