If you’ve been in a car accident in Milwaukee, Appleton, Waukesha, or Oshkosh, you might be wondering: Should I contact an attorney now or wait until the accident report is ready? It’s tempting to hold off, especially when reports often take 7-14 days—or even longer—to finalize.

As a motorcyclist, you’re exposed to multiple dangers while on the road. One significant challenge to your safety is other motorists. You do not necessarily have to be involved in a collision with a vehicle or another road user to suffer injuries. When you suffer injuries without contact with another vehicle, you might not be sure who should be held responsible for the accident. Fortunately, the law allows you to make a claim against the person who caused the accident and recover compensation for your injuries.
The events after the non-contact collision can adversely affect your case, so here’s what to do after the accident:
If you have been involved in a no-contact accident, you should first identify the driver’s vehicle license number. Noting the vehicle’s license plate makes it easier for you to make a police report. However, this may be impossible, particularly if you’re in a critical condition.
It’s essential to report to the police whether or not you captured the vehicle’s license plate. The at fault driver is most likely not going to admit fault even after filing the police report. Police will investigate the scene of the accident and provide a written report of what they observe.
A no-contact accident may be challenging to prove, especially when the at fault driver’s vehicle suffered no damage from a collision. Witnesses can help you prove that an accident happened and identify the driver responsible for the accident. A witness could be a pedestrian, a passenger, or another motorist who was not involved in the accident.
If you fail to identify the at-fault driver or gather witnesses, you might need to contact your insurance company and file for an uninsured motorist claim. It’s essential to understand that the insurance company may try to minimize the amount of compensation or argue that you were at fault. Therefore, you need to seek the help of a Milwaukee motorcycle accident attorney to help you gather witnesses and offer assistance with the insurance negotiations.
No-contact accidents can be more complex than typical collision accidents, especially when the at fault driver flees the scene of the accident. If you have been involved in a no-contact motorcycle accident, you need to contact a motorcycle accident lawyer. At Natasha Misra Law, we have helped other riders recover compensation from no-contact motorcycle accident cases.
