Dash cam is a must. I was in a similar situation and wished I had one.

How much damage was there on each car? In my case, there was barely any so I couldn't rely on that.

Yeah, I have a dash cam and I agree.

I don't know the extent of damage on his car since my cousin told me it already looked banged up. The rear bumper of my cousin's car was pretty scuffed up with deep gouges and some dents.

Update - the guy is under his mother's insurance and she had no idea any of this was going on. She was furious when the insurance company called her. I'm not sure of the specifics, but my cousin's insurance dropped the claim. The other guy's insurance is paying for all the damages and actually provided $250 for potential medical bills and $800 for the hassle lol My cousin is happy with the outcome and really wanted to the avoid the whole legal case anyway although this could've been an easy one for him and I think the insurance company knew this.
