The shortcomings of an at-fault driver in causing a motor vehicle accident affect nearly every part of the innocent party’s life. The innocent party loses past wages, they lose the ability to work in the future, medical bills pile up, and other debts mount, not to mention the constant pain and suffering that wears on the person’s mental well being.

This gives them the ability to effectively advocate for you. Contact us today to discuss your potential case.

Cell Phones and Driving Accidents

If you are behind the wheel of a vehicle, make sure not to distract yourself with a mobile device. According to a recent study by the National Safety Council’s annual injury and fatality report, cellphones are said to have caused 26 percent of the nation’s auto accidents in the past year.

One common misconception is that texting and driving are the major causes for accidents with a mobile device, however only five percent of these were due to texting and driving. The rest involved people using a handheld or hands-free cellular device.  This goes to show you that even though you may think talking on the phone is not as bad as texting, not focusing on the road in front of you is not safe.

If you were involved in a crash with a driver who was distracted by their mobile device or any other electronic, make sure to contact us today. You shouldn’t have to pay for anyone else’s negligence and distractions on the road.

A very important fact to know is that every time you drive and talk on your cellphone, your risk of being involved in a crash increases by 400 percent!

Damages From Car Crashes

Treating injuries sustained in car crashes can be painful and expensive. Recovery may require weeks of costly therapy, multiple meetings with specialists, expensive medications, and painful surgeries. Victims may need to take time off work and obtain help with childcare or transportation to and from appointments. Aside from the emotional toll this can take on victims and their families, this process can also be financially devastating. Other medical expenses may include:

  • Ambulance fees
  • Medical equipment, such as crutches or a wheelchair
  • Psychiatric treatment and
  • In-home services

Fortunately, victims may be able to obtain compensation to cover the harm they suffered as a result of another person’s negligence. Aside from medical bills, this could mean reimbursement for the costs of a number of expenses, including:

  • Lost wages
  • Pain and suffering
  • Repair or replacement of damaged property
  • Future lost earnings
  • Emotional distress
