The last thing you want to do while recovering from a car accident is deal with long lines and processing fees to obtain your crash report. While most government agencies will require you to go through an extensive process to recover your report, we have made it easy and completely free of charge!
Your Michigan Traffic Crash Report contains vital information regarding your accident that will likely be the most important piece of evidence during the claims process. The insurance adjuster assigned to your claim will use the information provided in your report to determine the amount in compensation you will receive for your medical bills, damages, and other expenses. This information includes but is not limited to:
The Michigan State Police requires you to submit a written request for your report along with a $10.00 check. You can submit an Affidavit of Indigency if you are unable to pay. However, this also requires unnecessary paperwork and takes up a significant amount of your valuable time.
You are able to request a copy of your certified crash report from the Michigan State Police via U.S. Mail. However, this process requires you to fill out extensive paperwork and pay a processing fee of $10.00.
You can request a copy of your crash report at any time. The typical waiting period for a report to be available online is about 10 days after your accident.
You can complete a crash report and submit it to the local law enforcement agency where the accident took place. However, an officer’s option regarding fault and causation will carry much more weight throughout the claims process. That is why you should always contact the police and remain at the scene of your crash until an officer arrives and completes an official crash report.
Most law enforcement agencies charge a processing fee to recover legal documents in order to pay for administrative costs. If you cannot afford the processing fee, you may have to submit additional documents to prove your inability to pay. Now, there is a way to skip all unnecessary fees, long lines, and paperwork! Simply provide us with a few key details regarding your accident, and we will obtain your report completely free of charge! t
