Each car insurance company has their own specific procedures as to how they want their customers to file a claim. The best way to find out is to call your insurance agent or company, or check out their website. However, one thing that cannot be understated, never admit fault and keep meticulous records of everything: photos, statements, police reports, when you talk to your insurance agent, repair costs, medical bills, etc. You are your own best advocate.
