If you have been injured in a car accident that was not your fault, you may be eligible to seek compensation from the responsible party for your damages.

Car Accidents Can Cause Devastating Injuries
Although auto accidents can involve serious injuries, including broken bones, burns, head injuries and paralysis that require extensive medical and rehabilitative care, even relatively minor injuries can have a significant impact on a person’s well-being, causing financial loss, reduced quality of life, and extensive pain and suffering.
How Can a Car Accident Lawyer Help Me?
Pursing a claim against the at-fault driver in an auto accident case almost always requires you to deal with the other driver’s insurance company. Although often courteous and professional, representatives from the other driver’s insurance company do not have your best interests in mind. Their duty is to the at-fault driver, and their job is to resolve your claim for as little money as possible. Insurance companies often attempt to settle your claim for far less than it is worth.
An experienced car accident lawyer can negotiate with the insurance company on your behalf and in many cases will obtain compensation for your that exceeds what you could otherwise recover—even when you take into account the lawyer’s fee for his or her services. Even if you decide not to engage a lawyer to assist you, it is almost always advisable to at least speak to an experienced car accident lawyer in a free consultation to learn about your rights.
