Auto Insurance & Making a Claim After an Accident

  • Have your policy number available.
  • Provide information on your car (year, make, model, license plate number, and the damage it sustained).
  • Where the vehicle is located, if it was towed from the accident scene for an insurance claims adjuster.
  • If the driver of your vehicle was different from the owner, we will need the full name of the operator along with his/her address, date of birth and driver's license number and insurance information.

Other Car Accident Insurance Information Needed

  • Have same information on the other party/parties involved in the accident.
  • Information on their vehicle(s). including the name and address of the owner and operator of the other vehicle(s).
  • Also include the year, make, model, license plate number, and the area of damage sustained of the other vehicle. The name of the other party's insurance company would also be helpful.
  • If the police were at the scene of the accident, we will need to know which department responded and if there were citations issued to any of the involved parties.
  • Include phone numbers, if available. If an accident report was filled out, you need to know when a copy will be available.
  • The date, time, and location of the accident including street names and any landmarks.
  • Names and addresses of any witnesses.
  • Names and addresses of any injured parties, along with a description of the nature of the injuries.

  • If you have had an automobile fire, the state law requires you to complete a FP 33C report. This can be obtained at your local fire department.

If your vehicle was stolen
