One important thing to do after you’ve been in a car accident is to gather all necessary documents related to the crash. This includes a crash report from your local police department, when available. In Mesquite, NV, the Mesquite Police Department is responsible for preparing a full accident report to be submitted to the state. Obtaining a copy of the report is one of the first things we do here at SJW for our clients who have been hurt or injured in a motor vehicle accident. If you were recently in a car accident in Mesquite and would like a copy of the MPD car accident report or other important documents, please feel free to contact us online or call us at (702) 291-8007 and our car accident lawyers can help get them for you. It is important to note that if your accident was in Clark County but outside of Mesquite, you will need to speak with the officers at the Clark County Sheriff’s Office about your accident report. And if your accident occurred on a freeway, then you’ll contact the Nevada Highway Patrol (see our post about how to get Nevada Highway Patrol crash reports).
It is quite common that the police will not attend an accident scene if the accident was minor, there were no injuries and minimal damage. In these cases, it is still important to make sure an accurate police report is filed. You can contact the Mesquite Police Department, or check out their website for more information on how to file a police report in Mesquite, NV.
