The victim in the Tiger Woods crash has lawyered up ... TMZ Sports has learned.
The notice of appearance and invocation of rights were filed in Florida on
Thursday ... showing Jeromy Bullard will be represented by Jason Fagnano, a personal injury attorney who specializes in auto, truck, motorcycle, bicycle and pedestrian accidents.The development now allows Bullard to be represented in the criminal case ... and makes sure his rights are protected every step of the way. It doesn't necessarily mean he's suing Woods.
The 50-year-old golf legend hit the pressure washer trailer attached to Bullard's Ford pickup truck in Florida on March 27 as he was attempting to turn into a driveway.
As we previously reported, the driver stated he could see Woods' black Range Rover approaching from behind ... and his attempt to get out of the way was unsuccessful.
Woods' whip wrecked Bullard's rear driver side wheel of the trailer ... which needed to be removed in order to get the attachment off the scene.
According to the report, the damage done to his rig was around $5,000.
There were no reported injuries between Woods and Bullard.
Woods is facing DUI with property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test ... and was hit with a careless driving citation as well.
He has since vowed to seek treatment ... and will go out of the country for it due to privacy concerns.
