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:

If you’ve been in a car crash on Highway 100, slipped on an icy sidewalk in downtown Milwaukee, or been hurt in another type of accident, you may be dealing with a soft tissue injury. These injuries can be painful, slow to heal, and difficult to prove to an insurance company — which is why having the right legal help matters.
At Natasha Misra Law, we’ve handled thousands of injury cases across Wisconsin, including many involving soft tissue injuries. Our goal is simple: to protect your rights, guide you through the process, and work to get you the compensation you deserve.
Soft tissue injuries affect muscles, tendons, and ligaments rather than bones. They often result from sudden impacts or overextension during an accident. Common examples include:
Sprains – stretching or tearing of ligaments
Strains – stretching or tearing of muscles or tendons
Contusions – bruising caused by blunt force
These injuries are common after auto accidents, motorcycle crashes, truck collisions, and slip and fall incidents — all areas where our firm has deep experience.
Not all injuries are obvious right away. Symptoms can appear hours or even days after an accident. Watch for:
If you notice these symptoms, seek medical attention immediately. A doctor’s records can be vital evidence in your claim.
Whether you can pursue compensation for your personal injury depends on several factors:
1. Proving Negligence: You must show that someone else’s negligence caused your injury — for example, a driver running a red light or a property owner failing to clear ice from a walkway.
2. Documenting Your Injury: Strong evidence strengthens your case. This includes medical records, accident reports, photographs, and witness statements.
3. Acting Quickly: Wisconsin law limits the time you have to file a personal injury claim. The sooner you speak with a lawyer, the better your chances of protecting your rights.
