The physical pain and emotional distress of an injury are more than anyone should have to endure, but it gets even worse. Being injured in an accident can also have a disastrous impact on the rest of your life.
The medical care you receive will lead to medical bills, your injuries could keep you from working, and your mobility and ability to care for yourself could be forever changed. If all of this suffering was the result of someone else’s negligence, that person should be made to pay for his or her carelessness.
Filing a personal injury claim with the help of a Brookhaven personal injury lawyer from our office could allow you to recover full compensation for your injuries and suffering. You can focus on getting over your physical and emotional wounds with enough compensation to provide for your future.
Even a minor vehicle collision can be traumatizing, but when you’ve been seriously injured in a wreck, the situation can change your life. Your physical injuries can bring your life to a standstill while you’re stuck in a hospital trying to recover.
Following your wreck, you may be unable to work for some time, and you may need compensation to help you with medical bills, missed wages, and other accident-related costs. Hiring a Brookhaven car accident lawyer can be important to recovering the damages you’ve suffered because of your serious car wreck.
When your life has been flipped upside-down due to a negligent driver, you deserve to set things right by seeking compensation from the at-fault party. We can help you recover full compensation for all you’ve suffered; we’ve helped our past clients recover over $50 million.
After you’ve been involved in a commercial trucking collision, the first thing the trucker’s insurance company will do is attempt to limit its liability. Because you’re an individual going up against a large company, your odds of success probably aren’t going to be great—unless you acquire a legal team of your own.
Your injuries are likely substantial if you’ve collided with an 18-wheeler, and you’re going to need all the compensation you can get to recover your losses. Your losses may include huge medical bills, months of lost wages, and countless other expenses.
Don’t just accept these losses. Call a Brookhaven truck accident lawyer from our firm to discuss your claim for compensation.
Trucking companies are in it for the money—they don’t care about the victims of accidents involving their truckers. They have policies with large insurance companies, and those companies are also in it for the money. They will investigate your accident to the fullest because, if even a scrap of blame can be placed on you, they’ll do it.
They want to limit the payout they’re required to give you in any way possible, and they aren’t afraid to resort to sneaky tactics, either. Sometimes, insurance companies will call you immediately following your truck wreck, trying to get you to give them statements before you’ve even left the hospital.
You probably can’t even remember the accident; you’re probably in so much pain that you can’t think straight. That won’t stop the insurance company from using your statements against you. Fortunately, your Brookhaven truck crash attorney can deal with them so you can worry about your physical recovery.
In any serious crash for which you are filing a personal injury claim, the two most important factors to determine and prove are who was responsible for the crash and what caused it.
For you to recover damages from the responsible party, you must first find the cause. In Brookhaven commercial truck accidents, the cause could be any of the following factors:
Your trucking collision attorney can help investigate your accident to determine the cause and who you should name as responsible in your claim.
Not everyone understands how trying the aftermath of a serious motorcycle accident can be. Not only are you suffering from catastrophic injuries, such as a traumatic brain injury or broken bones, but you’re also feeling overwhelmed from the shock of the experience and dealing with police and insurers.
Just when you think you’re about to be allowed to catch a breath, your healthcare provider walks into your hospital room and hands you an enormous bill. The injuries common to motorcycle accidents often lead to crippling medical expenses.
Fortunately, a Brookhaven motorcycle accident lawyer can help you recover the compensation you need to get past this accident and move on with your life.
Filing a personal injury claim is tough, especially when you’re suffering from physical injuries and you’re already dealing with other stress related to your accident. But a qualified lawyer will know the laws regarding negligence and personal injury, and we can help you file your claim, improving the odds of a successful outcome.
