Passenger injury checklist

Injured as a passenger? Keep the accident details in one place.

Passengers often have less control over police reports, insurance claims, driver details, rideshare records, medical bills, and transportation paperwork. This checklist helps injured passengers organize the basics before requesting a free accident review.

How to make passenger-injury details review-ready

  1. Start with treatment and safety. Keep appointment dates, discharge papers, prescriptions, imaging/lab records, symptoms notes, and follow-up instructions together.
  2. Document the ride context. Note whether you were in a personal vehicle, rideshare, taxi, work vehicle, or borrowed vehicle, and save trip receipts or messages when relevant.
  3. Collect claim identifiers. Save insurance letters, claim numbers, adjuster names, police-report numbers, and any driver or vehicle-owner information you are given.
  4. Track costs and disruption. Keep transportation receipts, missed-work dates, employer notes, childcare or ride costs, and out-of-pocket medical expenses in one folder.
  5. Avoid guessing. Do not guess about fault, insurance coverage, injury severity, legal qualification, case value, or guaranteed compensation.
  6. Use the free-review form when ready. Include state, ZIP, accident timing, attorney status, injury/treatment notes, claim/report details, and a short description.
