frequently ASKED QUESTIONS

What is a personal injury claim?

If you are injured because of another person’s negligence, you can take legal action to recover compensation through a personal injury claim. The most common causes of personal injuries are motor vehicle accidents, slips and falls, pedestrian accidents, dog bites, workplace accidents, medical malpractice, and wrongful death. The purpose of a personal injury claim is to make up for losses related to the accident or negligent action. Recoverable damages include medical bills, missed wages, loss of earning potential, costs to repair or replace personal property, emotional distress, and more

What should I do after a car accident?

After a car accident, your first priority should be safety. If possible, move to the side of the road and away from traffic. Call 911 to report the crash. Even if it was a minor collision, having a formal police report can help in determining liability later. If you are physically able to, begin documenting the scene. Take as many photos as possible, including pictures of both vehicles, the roadway, and your injuries. Collect contact information from the other driver and any witnesses.

Once the police release you from the accident scene, seek medical attention. Some conditions, like back injuries or whiplash, might not show symptoms right away. Having a record of receiving treatment connects your injuries to the crash, which is important for pursuing compensation in a personal injury case. Finally, reach out to our car accident lawyer to protect your rights and make sure that you get maximum monetary damages for your losses.

How are truck accidents different from other car accidents?

The sheer size of commercial vehicles makes collisions more devastating. In addition to substantial damage, truck crashes often cause catastrophic injuries. However, the biggest legal challenge in trucking accidents is determining liability. Depending on what caused the wreck, many parties could share blame, including the driver, the trucking company, the cargo loaders, and parts manufacturers. Our truck accident attorney conducts thorough investigations in these cases and may even consult third-party experts like accident reconstructionists to understand what happened and who is at fault.

How is fault determined in a motorcycle accident?

Accident scene photos and police reports go a long way toward determining fault in a motorcycle accident. Liability is based on breach of care, the main component of negligence. For example, our motorcycle accident lawyer will evaluate evidence to determine if the other driver failed to yield, was distracted by their phone, speeding, or committed another infraction. Unfortunately, many insurers have a motorcycle bias, meaning these claims are undervalued or dismissed more often than other motor vehicle crashes. That is why it is essential to work with our experienced personal injury attorney to secure the full compensation you are entitled to.

Who can file a wrongful death claim?

Wrongful death claims can be filed by the immediate family members of the deceased. In most states, priority is given to spouses and children. If the victim was a minor, childless, or unmarried, parents may be eligible to file. In certain circumstances where the deceased had multiple dependents, their estate may pursue a case. It is important to understand that only one wrongful death claim can be filed, but multiple plaintiffs can be named on it. To make sure that everything is completed accurately, it is essential to work with our wrongful death attorney.
