Hey! why wasting time ? While the cops are still not engaged, do the wee bit of research about the company which insures the other car and also swap some vital information with your offender. Check it out whether he's the owner of the car...or else you might need to gather the owner's name, address and telephone no. as well. Don't forget to derive the policy no. of the other vehicle. hope, you got me clear!

My friend, just remember that whenever you're signing the release, you'd actually be stating that in exchange to what you're gonna get you'll never again claim against that company towards that property damage or injury. So its very important for you to examine the check that you receive and make sure that its heading the right person and for the right amount. Wish you all the luck in that case! Garfield.

Hi all!
Do we all agree that this signing of the release may sometimes be prior to his receiving the check?
I believe this really counts, and for such times the victim has to make sure that the release clearly mentions that it would only be effective once the victim receives the check. I'd therefore advice to go ahead and sign the release from liability based on any personal statement that the check would be mailed to you in the future. Got it ?
take care, fatman.

Hi Murdoc~goodie!
Don't hesitate to consult a lawyer in case you're struck upon signing the release. It is not rare that the representatives of the other co. may get you hassled to sign in the release prior to you receipt of the said check.
This also applies to other similar kind of events which may lead to a liability claim (eg. getting injured by a falling object.).
all the best. Evan
