Generally, you do not need a police report in order to meet with a lawyer to get advise regarding your rights or to hire the lawyer. At some point, the lawyer will need the police report to determine who is at fault and to determine the insurance for the other vehicle or vehicles. Some people seem to think that before seeing the lawyer they want to have a police report to show the lawyer but oftentimes the delay in doing that may ultimately impact the case, particularly if a person is not going to start treatment until they see a lawyer. Thus, it is common for people to come to this law firm without police reports and then after they hire the law firm, the police report is obtained by the firm staff or the client picks it up after the meeting.
