Eyewitnesses play a critical role in seeking fair compensation after a car accident. Let’s discuss the main points in leveraging witnesses to maximize your claim.
Eyewitnesses are the individuals present at the scene of the accident. They are an unbiased 3rd party offering on objective account of what happened.
Insurance companies, judges, and juries rely heavily on eyewitness accounts to reconstruct the accident accurately and assess liability.
If multiple eyewitnesses provide a consistent account of the accident, it will make it harder to question the legitimacy of your claim.
Negotiating with insurance companies is much easier with eyewitness accounts – and is crucial for earning a fair settlement.
The absence of eyewitnesses does not doom your case. You will need to rely on:
Accident reconstruction
Reports
Liability proof
Advocate for fair compensation
Negotiate with insurance companies
Organize and present evidence
Peace of mind
