Bott & Company Launch Ambulance Chaser iPhone App

By Omar Ha-Redeye

ADVERTISEMENTS

I’ve joked previously that the Google crowdsource traffic feature was a free ambulance chaser application.

It seems a British firm has developed a iPhone application specifically intended to document all the details necessary for future litigation, the iPhone Car Incident Assistant application (iCIA). The Times Online reports:

It appears ambulance chasing has gone digital after Bott & Company, a law firm in Manchester that specialises in personal injury claims, has developed an application for the iPhone that prompts people involved in an accident to record insurance and witness details, take multiple photographs, store GPS information and click through to a dedicated hotline to lodge a claim.

The solicitors believe it is the first time such an application has been launched. It is a free download and walks the user through what they should do if they are involved in an accident.

The also seem to offer client management services online, including updates via snail mail, e-mail, or SMS.

A YouTube video describing the app can be found here, and you can download it for free from here.
