After a car accident, an injured person may face great challenges including recovery from injuries, loss of wages, and other financial and legal issues. Hiring a highly skilled personal injury attorney to advocate for you from the beginning will guide you through the legal process, help you cope with your injuries, and seek the compensation you deserve from the responsible party.
Auto accidents are a leading cause of death and injury nationwide. Injuries occur in many different situations: excessive speed, distracted driving, stop-and-go traffic, failure to obey traffic lights or stop signs, or driving under the influence. Sometimes the party at fault is not another driver. An accident can be the fault of the vehicle owner, a municipality that failed to take precautions to keep the road safe, or a manufacturer whose product failed at a critical moment. Some injuries do not appear until days, weeks, or months later, which is why it is essential that you consult with an experienced car accident attorney who will advise you along the way.
