If You Were Involved

Seek medical attention

Take photos, gather witness information, and keep all medical records.

3

Get the police report

This is crucial for insurance claims and any legal action.

4

Know your rights

Don't speak to insurance adjusters without understanding your rights first.

5

Consult an attorney

Many offer free consultations to review your case.

Getting the Official Crash Report

The official report is written by the law-enforcement agency that handled the crash. Our Ohio guide explains who keeps crash reports in Ohio, how to request a copy, and where the official request pages are.

Why the Official Report Matters

The official accident report documents key facts—who was involved, where and when it happened, the officer's fault determination, and witness statements. Insurance companies rely on it to process claims.

Without this report, proving fault becomes significantly harder. Even if you don't plan to file a lawsuit, having the official record protects you if the other party's insurance disputes your account.
