For high-impact crashes involving a frontal collision, head-on collision injury representation is available through lawyers who know how to handle severe injury claims.
Pain and suffering are proven through documentation of your injuries, medical records, mental health evaluations, and testimony from you and loved ones about how the injury has affected your life. Severity, duration, and life impact are considered.
The length of a car accident case depends on its complexity. Simple cases may settle in a few months, while more complex cases involving serious injuries or disputed liability may take a year or more, especially if they go to trial.
No, you should not speak with the other driver’s insurance company without first consulting your own lawyer. Insurance adjusters may try to get you to say something that reduces your payout or denies your claim.
Not all cases go to court. Many are resolved through settlement negotiations with the insurance company. However, if a fair settlement isn’t reached, your attorney may recommend filing a lawsuit and going to court to pursue full compensation.
In multi-vehicle accidents, fault is divided among the involved parties. Your lawyer will help sort out the details and ensure you're not unfairly blamed. Each driver’s insurance may be responsible for a portion of your damages.
If you were hit by a commercial vehicle like a delivery truck or rideshare car, you may be able to sue the driver’s employer or the company’s insurance. These cases often involve higher policy limits and more complex legal issues.
