Motor vehicle crashes cause property damage and injuries to drivers every day on roads throughout the nation. Sadly, crashes also cause many deaths. Losing a loved one due to an unexpected and unpredictable motor vehicle accident can be devastating and impossible to comprehend, especially when another person is responsible.
Spouses, children and other relatives who are faced with this reality may be able to file a lawsuit. This type of lawsuit involves seeking monetary damages for various types of losses. No amount of money can compensate for the loss of your loved one. But by holding the wrongdoer responsible, families can sometimes obtain justice and closure.

The trial and case experience of your car accident injury attorney will have a significant impact on the amount you will receive from the insurance company when you are injured in a car accident.
Insurance companies offer the lowest amounts possible to settle a case and do not have your best interests in mind.
If you have been involved in any collision, regardless of how minor you think it might have been, you need to see an urgent care or trauma physician within 24 to 48 hours of the accident or you may not be able to file an enforceable personal injury insurance claim.
Many injuries can take weeks or even months before you experience symptoms. If you don’t see a doctor within 48 hours your otherwise valid personal injury claim can and will be rejected by the insurance company.
