How Do I File an Auto Insurance Claim in Massachusetts?
If you or a loved one has the misfortune of being involved in a car accident, the first thing you should do is check for injuries. There is absolutely nothing more important than the health, safety and well-being of you and your family. If you're injured or concerned about possible injuries, stop what you're doing and contact either an ambulance or your primary care physician (depending on the severity) immediately. Next, contact the police and ask them if an officer should be present.
Once your well-being is taken care of, you'll want to obtain the following information.
From The Other Driver:
- Name
- Address
- Phone number
- Vehicle owner information, if different
- Vehicle information, including the year, make, model, color, plate number, insurance carrier, policy number
- Passenger names, if any
- Any injuries claimed at scene
From Any Witnesses:
