Auto Accident Lawyer - Personal Injury Claim
Our nationwide network of attorneys specialize in settlements for personal injury caused as a result of car accidents. An expert auto accident lawyer will ensure that you receive maximum damages both for your injuries and any other losses which can include :-
- pain and suffering
- compensation for psychological trauma
- loss of past and future income
- medical expenses for the past and for the future
- assistance for the future
- loss of amenities of life
- damage to your car or personal property
Our attorneys are all members of The Association Of Trial Lawyers of America and have a track record of many years successful verdicts and settlements and will give you a fair deal by using a contingency fee agreement to represent you. This means that there is no money to pay upfront and if your auto accident lawyer doesnt succeed in getting you a settlement then you do not pay him anything at all. Your lawyer will only receive a fee if you receive compensation. You will be given advice at an early stage on the prospects of success and on the value of your claim. Your lawyer will advise you on how to pursue your claim and what actions you should take to preserve your legal rights.
Legal cases are won or lost on the available evidence and the following information should be obtained and preserved for your auto accident lawyer as soon as possible :-
- the other car drivers name, address, date of birth and telephone number
- the other drivers license number and insurance company name and policy number
- the name and badge number of the attending police officer
- the names, addresses and phone numbers of any witnesses
- attend a doctor or hospital to document any injury
- make a detailed personal note about the accident as soon as possible
- your auto accident lawyer will need a detailed written statement
- a diagram of street layout, position of vehicles and location of witnesses
- photograph the accident scene, damage to the vehicles and any visible injuries
For an auto accident lawyer to succeed in a legal claim against the driver of another vehicle it must be proved that the other driver was negligent which means that they must have failed to act reasonably and in a manner that respects the safety of other road users. Litigation is intended to restore the injured person to the position that they would have been in had the accident never occurred and whilst money can never compensate adequately for serious personal injury or death an innocent party is entitled to just and fair damages to compensate so far as is possible for their injury and losses.
Our specialists will give you a complete personal service and will always be available to discuss your claim on the telephone. Letters, faxes and emails will where possible be dealt with on the same day and you will be kept fully updated on the progress of your claim.
