Why securing evidence is so important
Evidence preservation serves to objectively document the condition of a vehicle or damage before any changes occur. It is particularly important when:
- the question of guilt is unclear
- The sequence of events leading to the damage is disputed.
- Technical defects need to be investigated.
- Pre-existing damage should be documented
- an expert opinion will only be needed later
- A legal dispute is possible
- Insurance companies express doubts
Professional evidence preservation prevents:
- Loss of evidence
- false claims
- incomplete damage assessment
- later disputes
- financial disadvantages
When securing evidence is advisable
Securing evidence is recommended in the following cases:
- Accidents where fault is unclear
- Disputes with insurance companies
- technical defects or failures
- Prior damage before purchase or sale
- Damage to company vehicles
- Damage to leased vehicles
- Documentation before repairs begin
- Damage that will be assessed later
It creates clarity, security and a solid foundation for all further steps.
