Helping clients who have been injured in any kind of car accident

Collisions of any kind can be damaging and result in serious injuries. Many people who have been in an auto accident as a driver or a passenger might have a legitimate claim for damages without even realizing it. Common sources of accidents are:

  • Distracted driving
  • Texting while driving
  • Simple driver error, including speeding
  • Poorly maintained roads
  • Reckless or aggressive driving
  • Drunk or intoxicated driving
  • Overloaded trucks or commercial vehicles

If you have been in an accident of any kind, speak with one of our attorneys about how to proceed with a personal injury claim.

An injury from an accident often needs long-term medical care

The stress and trauma of being involved in even a minor car wreck can be difficult to overcome. However the physical injuries that often result from accidents can have much more severe and long-term effects. We often see clients who have suffered:

  • Head injuries, including concussions
  • Damage to the spinal column and vertebrae
  • Back injuries
  • Sprains, cuts and burns
  • Damage from a deployed airbag

Many such injuries have long-term or permanent effects that need significant medical care. Back injuries and damage to the spine often require lengthy rehabilitation. Even fatal car accidents involve significant medical, funeral and other costs.

Experienced accident attorneys protect you from shady insurance tactics

Insurance companies try many different tactics to keep people involved in personal injury cases from receiving the largest payout they are entitled to. Some include:

  • A lump-sum payment — Many companies know that an immediate cash payment is too tempting for many victims to turn down. However, this can prevent someone from later collecting an even larger amount that he or she might be entitled to receive.
  • A simultaneous settlement — It is common for insurers to try to settle both an auto accident and a medical claim simultaneously. Many people accept these offers without considering long-term medical care and rehabilitation costs not included.
  • Contacting a victim to discuss the accident — Opposing insurance companies sometimes try to speak to a victim without that person’s lawyer present. This is done in the hope that a victim may make an admission that damages their case.

Do not fall victim to an insurance company’s tricks. If you are involved in an accident, always consult an attorney before you speak with the responsible party’s representative.
