Involved in an Auto Accident?
Millions of people are injured in automobile accidents every year. Automobile accidents account for the majority of personal injury cases. Most of which are attributed to negligent or distracted drivers. Most common injuries resulting from an auto accident are sprains, broken bones, concussion or whiplash. In some cases though, victims of car accidents can be left with serious injuries including: internal injuries, loss of limbs or severe spinal cord injuries that may require surgery. As a result of an auto accident, the victim can be burdened with enormous costs of lengthy hospital stays, surgery and rehabilitation. Often, this can leave many car accident victims in financial ruin. In some severe cases, the victim can be left permanently disabled and in need of long term care.
Automobile accident lawsuits are based on the negligence of one of the drivers. Negligent driving is defined as operating a motor vehicle in a manner that is both negligent and endangers or is likely to endanger any person or property. Some examples of negligent driving include speeding, texting/phone use while driving and driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. As a victim, you have the right to determine how much compensation you may be entitled to. You may be entitled to lost wages, past and future medical bills, cost of property damages and compensation for your pain and suffering.
