Auto Accident Attorney

    According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Association (NHTSA), someone in the United States is in an automobile accident every ten seconds. In many of these accidents, no one is hurt, or those involved escape with very minor injuries. Tragically, that is not always the case. In some accidents, people suffer painful, life-changing injuries. In the very worst car accidents, people lose their lives.

    If you have been injured in a car accident due to the negligence of another, you will typically deal with the other person's insurance company. An insurance company will attempt to minimize the amount of money it pays in claims. Insurance companies employ claims adjusters, investigators and attorneys to achieve this goal. If you negotiate with an insurance company on your own, there is a good chance you will not recover your full measure of damages.

    In most cases, the first thing our car accident lawyers will do is review and investigate the circumstances of your accident. By doing this, we will have a complete understanding of the facts. We may find additional parties who share fault for your accident. We will then calculate the amount of your damages. In cases involving serious injuries, it can involve making a calculation of your present and future medical expenses as well as your loss of income, both now and in the future. In catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases we may hire experts such as life care planners and economists to present testimony as to your injuries and damages.

    In most cases, we will then make a demand for compensation or settlement offer to the insurance company. If settlement negotiations are unsuccessful in resolving your claim, the alternative is to present your case before a jury of your peers who can decide the issues of liability and damages.

    After an accident, you will have one chance to get the compensation you deserve. Make the most of this chance by making a careful selection of the attorney you decide to entrust with your case.
