What can I do if I am the victim of a staged car accident in West Palm Beach?

A: Between 2007 and 2009 there were more than 3,000 staged accidents recorded in Florida. Unfortunately, the number of crashes has only increased since then.

To avoid being the victim of a staged accident, West Palm Beach accident lawyer Craig Goldenfarb advises that you call the police immediately after any Palm Beach County car crash. Do this even if you might be at fault.

Make sure you get the contact information for any drivers and passengers involved in the crash. Get their pictures if you can. You will also need their license plate number, along with the make and model of the vehicle.

You can report any suspicious accident to the state fraud tip hotline at 800-378-0445.
