  6. Was Negligence a Factor in Your Crash? More than 90% of vehicle crashes are the result of human error. Negligence means that someone acted carelessly behind the wheel. When we are injured because of someone else’s negligence, we have the legal right to pursue compensation for the costs of our injuries. CONTACT US TODAY: 800.444.5000

  7. Examples of Negligent Driving Distracted driving Drowsy driving Impaired driving Speeding Failure to follow traffic signs or signals Veering into other lanes Following another vehicle too closely CONTACT US TODAY: 800.444.5000

  8. The Law is On Your Side When another driver is at fault for your injury, you can take legal action to get payment for the costs of your injury. While insurance companies are supposed to compensate an injured person if its policyholder caused the accident, it is too often the case that people are denied the payment they deserve. In these cases, the injured party can file a personal injury claim to get compensation for the damages they have suffered. CONTACT US TODAY: 800.444.5000

  9. Damages You Can Seek in a Personal Injury Claim In a personal injury claim, you can seek payment for… All medical expenses related to your injury (hospital bills, medications, rehabilitation, use of medical devices, etc.) Loss of income due to missed time at work Loss of future income because of reduced work capacity Property damage in the accident The pain and suffering you have endured.

If possible, get the contact information of witnesses and take pictures of the scene. 3. Keep copies of all bills, records, or correspondence you receive related to your injury. 4. Contact an attorney to help you with your case. 5. If contacted by the other driver’s insurance company representative, refer them to your attorney and DO NOT offer a statement.
