Good evening, San Diego, and welcome back. I’m Brenda Sanchez, reporting live from Carlsbad with Richard Morse of Morse Injury Law. Tonight, we’re discussing a crucial step in the aftermath of a car accident: Investigation and Claim Filing.
Richard, can you walk us through this process?
Certainly, Brenda. After a client has sought medical attention, which is paramount for their well-being, we dive into a thorough investigation. This involves gathering all relevant evidence, building the foundation of our case. Ordinarily, this includes obtaining police reports, witness statements if available, and meticulously compiling all medical records related to the injuries sustained.
Moreover, we often need to reconstruct the accident scene. Photographs taken by the client or from surveillance cameras can be invaluable in illustrating the circumstances leading up to the collision. Consequently, this meticulous process allows us to piece together a comprehensive narrative of what transpired, which is essential for building a strong claim.
Once we’ve assembled all the necessary evidence, we formally file a claim with the responsible party’s insurance company. Accompanying this claim is a detailed demand letter outlining the extent of our client’s injuries, damages incurred, and the compensation we are seeking on their behalf.
Have you ever encountered any obstacles during this investigative phase?
Brenda, while we strive to be thorough and efficient, sometimes securing crucial evidence can prove challenging. I recall a case involving a hit-and-run cyclist. The initial police report lacked detailed information about the vehicle involved. Through persistent follow-up with local businesses and residents, we were able to locate surveillance footage that captured the license plate number of the fleeing car. This breakthrough allowed us to identify the driver and ultimately hold them accountable for their actions.
It’s moments like these that underscore the importance of tenacity and dedication in pursuing justice for our clients. Studies by the Insurance Research Council reveal that nearly 20% of auto accidents result in hit-and-run incidents, highlighting the prevalence of such challenging situations (Insurance Research Council, 2019).
That’s truly remarkable work, Richard. Any final thoughts for our viewers?

What is a Personal Injury Lawyer for Bicycle Accidents
A bicycle accident attorney specializes in representing individuals who have been injured in accidents involving bicycles. At Morse Injury Law in San Diego, Richard Morse and his team understand the challenges faced by victims of bicycle accidents, including the stress of medical bills, lost wages, and recovery. Bicycle accidents, which can be caused by drivers cutting off cyclists, rear-ending them, or opening car doors in their path, can lead to catastrophic injuries like broken bones, brain injuries, paralysis, and even fatalities. The firm offers free consultations and works on a contingency basis, meaning clients only pay if compensation is recovered.
Bicycle accidents are often complicated by California’s complex insurance laws, and insurance companies typically do not prioritize the best interests of the victim.
