Who Is Liable For Your Auto Accident?
Our first order of business is to determine whether someone else’s negligence caused your accident. Negligent parties should be held liable for the harm they cause, so we need to identify the cause of the crash. Some common causes of auto accidents include:
- Drunk driving
- Distracted driving
- Fatigued driving
- Dangerous lane changes
- Speeding
- Tailgating
- Other aggressive behaviors
- Not maintaining vehicle
- Defective vehicles
- Road hazards
Whether the negligent party is another driver or a large corporation, we have the resources to stand up for your rights.
What Causes Auto Accidents?
There are many ways a reckless or negligent driver can cause an accident. If a driver distracts themselves by using their cellphone, eating, adjusting their appearance, updating their GPS or radio, or trying to grab something just out of reach, they can cause catastrophic injuries in a car accident.
What Is A Compensation Claim Worth?
Every personal injury claim is worth a different amount of money. The goal of any claim is to maximize the compensation the plaintiff receives to reflect the current and future costs of their injuries. Fair compensation often includes lost income during recovery time, medical expenses, relocation or renovation of a home to accommodate a disability, and pain and suffering.
Is A Personal Injury Lawyer Necessary?
In some situations, an insurance company may be quick to offer an accident victim a settlement for their injuries. While this may seem like a blessing, it is more likely that the offer is actually far less than the victim deserves for their injuries. A skilled attorney can negotiate for fair compensation in a personal injury claim while also settling the case in a swift and effective manner.
How Long Does It Take To Settle A Case?
Depending on certain factors of a case, the typical length of a personal injury claim can range from a few months to a few years. If negotiations for fair compensation go smoothly, your claim can resolve quickly. However, if the defendant is not cooperative in negotiations, litigation may be necessary, and taking your case to court can considerably delay the time it takes to resolve things.
Legal Representation You Can Trust
Identifying the liable parties is only one step in the personal injury process. To exercise your rights under the law, you can file an insurance claim with the negligent party’s insurer or file a personal injury lawsuit. Lawsuits are more common in cases involving particularly severe and life-changing injuries.
Always remember that an insurance company is not on your side, and it will do whatever it can to limit your settlement. It has many tricks that it uses to convince claimants to accept inadequate offers, though we will not let that happen. We can help you in many ways to ensure that you receive the full compensation you deserve, including:
- Prepare a persuasive claim with evidence to support liability and damages
- Handle every communication with insurance adjusters
- Calculate the value of your claim to ensure that you request enough to cover your losses
- Review settlement offers and negotiate for more if an offer is too low
- File a personal injury claim in civil court if the insurance process is insufficient
We handle every single step of your case so that you can focus on getting back on your feet after your injuries.
