The first hours after a collision often determine what evidence is available later. If you’re able, take these steps before you speak to insurance adjusters:
- Get medical care right away (even if you think it’s “minor”). New Jersey injury claims often hinge on documentation linking treatment to the crash.
- Write down the ride details: pickup/drop-off, the time, and what the driver was doing right before impact.
- Preserve app information: screenshots of the trip, driver name/photo, and any messages or receipts.
- Report the incident properly. If police were involved, obtain the report number.
- Avoid recorded statements until you’ve reviewed your facts with an attorney.
An AI tool can help you capture this information consistently—but your claim still needs a licensed lawyer to assess liability, coverage, and damages.
