Automobile Accidents

Every year thousands of people are injured or killed as a result of auto accidents. According to the National Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) every 10 seconds somebody in the United States is involved in an Automobile accident. As a result, cases resulting from automobile accidents are the most common source of litigation in our court system.

Motor vehicle accidents can involve one vehicle, multiple vehicles and/or pedestrians. Although in some cases a determination as to who is at fault is academic, in other cases it must based upon detailed investigation. Accordingly, time is of the essence.

Police reports must be obtained immediately to determine the allegations of fault. Insurance company information must be immediately obtained The taking of witness statements must be done quickly as memories can go dim with time. Pictures of the accident scene should be taken along with those of the damaged vehicle. Accident reconstruction experts may need to be retained. The prevailing statutes and laws regarding the particular jurisdiction of the accident site must be ascertained.
