If you’ve been in a car accident in Milwaukee, Madison, Appleton, Green Bay, or anywhere in Wisconsin, the moments afterward can shape your recovery — physically, emotionally, and financially. When no officer arrives to take an official accident report, you might feel like you’ve lost a key piece of your case. But you still have every right to protect yourself and pursue the compensation you deserve.
At Natasha Misra Law, we’ve built our practice on helping accident victims across Wisconsin through challenges just like this. We take the time to understand your situation, explain your options, and handle the details so you can focus on getting back on your feet. Here’s what to do next.
If law enforcement isn’t coming, you need to build the record yourself:
Take photos – Capture vehicle damage, license plates, injuries, debris, and the full accident scene from different angles.
Exchange information – Get names, phone numbers, driver’s license numbers, license plates, and insurance details from everyone involved.
Talk to witnesses – Politely ask for their contact information and a brief statement about what they saw.
Think of this as creating your own “mini report”; it can become vital evidence later.
Wisconsin law says you must file a Driver Report of Crash within 10 days if:
You file this report with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) — not the DMV. You can do it online or request a paper form. It’s the state’s official record of your crash, and it can make or break an insurance claim.
Report the accident to your insurer as soon as you can. Stick to the facts you documented. Don’t admit fault or guess at details — just provide the evidence you’ve gathered.
Not all injuries show up right away. A stiff neck today could be a serious soft tissue injury tomorrow. Seeing a doctor immediately protects your health and ties your injuries directly to the crash in the medical record.
When there’s no police report, insurance companies often push back harder. Having the right lawyer means you’re not fighting alone. At Natasha Misra Law, we:

After an accident, the physical injuries are just the beginning. You’re dealing with constant pain, sleepless nights, the stress of mounting medical bills, and the frustration of not being able to work or enjoy life the way you used to. Maybe you can’t pick up your child, take a simple walk without discomfort, or focus on anything other than your recovery.
These losses are real, and in Wisconsin, the law recognizes them under pain and suffering damages—compensation for what the accident has done to your body, mind, and daily life.
At Natasha Misra Law, we fight to make sure accident victims get the full compensation they deserve. If someone else’s negligence puts you in this position, you shouldn’t have to carry the burden alone. Let’s take a look at how you could recover damages, and how an injury lawyer could support your case.
Pain and suffering refers to the physical pain, emotional distress, and reduced quality of life caused by an accident. Your pain and suffering up to the point of resolution as well as pain and suffering in the future can be taken into consideration. These damages are different from economic losses like medical bills or lost wages—pain and suffering covers the intangible impact of your injuries, such as:
These struggles deserve recognition and fair compensation. We fight to make sure you get it.
For most car accidents, truck accidents, and most other personal injury claims in Wisconsin, there is no limit on what you can recover for pain and suffering. However, there are limits in certain cases:
Insurance companies won’t just hand over compensation for pain and suffering. You need clear, compelling evidence to show the real impact of your injuries. This includes:
