Lawyers for Car Insurance Claims – What You Need to Know
An experienced car accident attorney knows that insurance companies often rush to contact victims of car crashes in order to get them to settle before they have learned the full extent of their injuries. As soon as they find out about the accident, the insurance company will begin to investigate your claim. They may try to contact you and ask you to sign papers while you are still in the hospital, or unable to return to your job.
Be sure to speak to a skilled car insurance lawyer before you sign any papers. Your team of car accident lawyers should be the only one to communicate with the insurance company. If an insurance adjuster contacts you, remember that person is on the job, not engaging in friendly banter. You must tell the insurance adjuster to speak to your attorney, not to you, in order to protect your claim.
Important Tip: Do Not Delay in Filing Your Car Accident Claim
Each case must follow the statute of limitations — the countdown clock ticking to the legal buzzer when a claim will no longer be admitted by the courts. Our proven car accident law firm would like the chance to help you before:
- Evidence disappears;
- Witnesses forget what they saw or move away;
- The time limit for filing your claim expires and you are barred from recovering any money for your injuries and losses.

If you have escaped injury after being in a car accident, the chances are that you have sustained other damages. Or maybe you are concerned about whether your insurance rates will go up as a result of the car accident. You should contact an experienced Isaacs & Isaacs car accident attorney without delay to protect your interests. We do not believe you should have to pay for your injuries. Whoever is responsible should have to pay. We will represent you on a contingency fee basis: you don’t pay us anything unless and until we win your case.

A licensed attorney will be able to easily retrieve and review your car accident police report.
Additional options to obtain your police report after a car accident:
- Contact the law enforcement office who wrote the report – The officers making the report will often give you a receipt or a business card that include the case or report number that you will submit to get your report. This is nearly always a paid service.
- Contact your insurance company – Sometimes the claims department will order a copy of the police report, and will provide a copy to injured parties, often for free.
- Third party online police report companies will often provide your police report for a fee.
To learn more about obtaining your police report and how it will be used to fight for your claim, check out The Hammer’s police report podcast episode.
👮 Who Is At Fault In A Car Accident?
Determining fault in a car accident is different for every state. Some are considered no fault states, while others are considered at fault states. In both circumstances, this refers to the insurance coverage known as Personal Injury Protection (PIP). Whether or not this is in play will determine what money damages and other elements can be recovered after a car accident for medical bill payments, often referred to as PIP benefits or No Fault benefits.
- Kentucky – No Fault state
- Indiana – At Fault State
- Ohio – At Fault State
Determining liability for an accident typically comes down to proving negligence of a driver or a company.
In many states, even if you were partially at fault in an accident where you are injured, you may still have the ability to collect a percentage of money damages.
Be sure to listen to our podcast episode: Who is At Fault in a Car Accident?
⏳ How Long Do You Have To Report A Car Accident?
The amount of time you have to report an accident varies from every state and falls into two different categories: reporting an accident to the police or DMV as required by law, and reporting to file a complaint and launch a lawsuit.
As required by law, you must report a car accident to the DMV or authorities in these states by the listed deadline:
- Kentucky – 10 days after accident
- Indiana – Immediately
- Ohio – 6 months
If you are seeking to file a car insurance claim or begin a lawsuit to recover compensation for your damages and losses, you’ll need to pay attention to the deadlines, known as the statute of limitations in each state. For these states below, note the general deadlines for filing a car insurance injury claim:
- Kentucky – 1 year after accident
- Indiana – 2 years after accident
- Ohio – 2 years after accident
Note: Each case type may alter the actual deadlines for filing a claim. Your strongest move forward will be to contact a car accident lawyer soon after the accident occurs so you do not miss the deadline for lawsuit.
🚑 What Are My Next Steps When I’m In A Car Accident That Is Not My Fault?
Determining fault in an accident will depend on which state you live in. Some are no fault states, others are at fault states. Both refer to the kind of injury insurance coverages available and what benefits they will pay. This is referred to as known as Personal Injury Protection (PIP).
No matter where the accident occurred, the steps are often similar:
- Get a police report
- Seek medical attention and follow doctor instructions
- Notify your insurance about the accident
- Speak with a car accident lawyer before the deadlines pass
🏨 What Do I Need To Prove In A Car Accident Personal Injury Case?
Laws are different in every state. In every case, there are two main issues: liability and damages. So you have to prove liability – you have to prove that someone is at fault and responsible for your injuries, and then two, you have to actually sustain injuries and show that you have been harmed or “damaged” and that will have costs associated with those injuries. These can include physical damages and pain and suffering damages. With these two elements in place, you can move forward with a car accident personal injury case.
