Car Accident FAQ: What Information Do I Give the Other Insurance Company?

You want to provide the necessary information that you would in the event of an accident. For instance, you should include:

• Your driver’s license
• Your registration information
• Your contact information
• Your insurance policy and contact information

The documentation above is vital information and allows the other party’s insurance company to communicate effectively. The insurance companies work together to determine the outcome of the claim, but there may be some intricate details to examine. You may require legal representation moving forward.

You want to provide the essential information first, but you should also take the time to speak with a lawyer about what not to provide. For instance, you may want to avoid providing a recorded statement when the other party’s insurance company requests one.

You may have a lawyer present when speaking with the other insurance company to avoid them taking advantage of your rights. Your lawyer can help you answer questions in a way that supports your claim rather than hurting it.

At Daspit Law, we’ll help you understand your rights and protect your interests. Know that the insurance company is looking out for their profits. They’re not always willing to pay out compensation when you need it.
