1. Gather evidence: Collect as much evidence as possible to support your claim. This may include:
* A copy of the police report from the accident
* Witness statements
* Photos of the accident scene
* Any correspondence you have with the insurance company or the driver in question
2. Contact your insurance company: As soon as possible after the accident, contact your insurance company and inform them of the situation. Provide them with all the information you have gathered.
3. Request a copy of the driver's license: If you do not already have a copy of the driver's license of the person who was driving your vehicle, request one from the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV).
4. File a complaint with the DMV: If you have evidence that the person who was driving your vehicle had a suspended license, you can file a complaint with the DMV. This may help to support your claim with the insurance company.
5. Get legal advice: If you are having difficulty proving your case to the insurance company, you may want to consider getting legal advice. An attorney can help you understand your rights and options and represent you in any negotiations with the insurance company.
It is important to note that even if you are able to prove that the person who was driving your vehicle had a suspended license, the insurance company may still deny your claim. However, following the steps outlined above can increase your chances of success.
