Motor Vehicle Accidents
Automobile accidents are among the leading cause of personal injury and death in the United States. Motor vehicles are an inextricable part of American history and daily life, and many people fail to realize that they are responsible for safely operating a large and potentially dangerous machine each time they get behind the wheel. Traffic collisions are extremely prevalent, occurring more than 6.5 million times during any given year, injuring nearly 3 million people, and resulting in tens of thousands of deaths.
There are many causes of road traffic accidents, ranging from genuine mistakes to extremely unsafe driving practices. When accidents occur as a result of another driver’s negligence, injured victims have every right to receive compensation for the injuries they suffered. Injuries that occur during motor vehicle accidents range in severity. Whether injuries are mild, severe, catastrophic, or fatal, the party responsible for causing the accident must be held liable. These injuries can result in emotional, physical, and financial repercussions that can greatly impact all facets of your life. By filing a personal injury claim, you and your loved ones may be able to recover compensation that can cover any necessary medical treatment or procedures, lost wages and future earnings from the inability to work, and damages that result in a marked impact on your quality of life.
