Auto Accident Attorneys

The long-term consequences of a car crash can cause you to be faced with costly medical bills, a diminished income and pain and suffering. The negligent party that caused the crash should be held responsible to compensate you for these losses.

A New York City auto accident attorney can help you get the full amount of compensation for your losses. An experienced car accident lawyer will also shield you from unreasonable denials by insurance companies.

Distracted driving

Every driver is required to drive their vehicle safely and keep their focus on the road. Distracted driving is the leading cause of near-collisions and collisions and is extremely dangerous for other drivers on the road. If you've suffered injuries due to distracted drivers you could be legally entitled to compensation.

While many people think of texting and talking on the phone when they hear distracted driving it's actually any activity that puts your hands off the steering wheel, your eyes off of the road, or mind off the task at hand. This involves eating, reaching into the car for items or passengers, and adjusting the dashboard controls such as the radio or temperature. It can also involve personal grooming, like shaving or applying makeup.

According to research by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Virginia Tech Transportation Institute (VTTI) around 80 percent of all crashes and 65 percent of near-collisions result from driver distraction. And even just looking away from the road for five seconds at 55 mph doubles your risk of a crash.

If you've been injured in an accident caused by a distracted driver, an experienced auto accident attorney can help. They can look into your case and present most persuasive arguments for full compensation and include all of your current and future expenses.

Car crashes

Car accidents can take numerous forms, from minor fender benders to catastrophic head-on collisions. The nature of the collision determines who could be accountable, as well as the severity and extent of the injuries sustained by the victims and the extent of their financial losses.

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) crash statistics reveal that driver error is the main driver's fault in motor vehicle accidents. Even the slightest distraction like changing radio stations or applying makeup, or even reading a road map, could result in a serious accident. Other causes of car accidents include speeding, reckless or drunk driving, poor weather conditions, inexperienced drivers, or elderly drivers.

A New York City car accident lawyer will analyze your case to identify the parties at fault and determine the severity of your injuries and financial losses. They can also negotiate with the defendant's insurance company to negotiate an equitable settlement for your claim.

A skilled lawyer for auto accidents can assist you in getting the compensation you deserve, such as for past and future medical expenses as well as lost wages, mental and physical distress, and other damages. They can also ensure that your claim has coverage for uninsured or sub-insured drivers, if needed. This is particularly important if the person at fault does not have insurance, or has only the minimum amount required by New York law.

Uninsured or underinsured drivers

Certain drivers do not have insurance, while others have a minimal amount of insurance. If an uninsured or uninsured driver is responsible for causing a crash, it can be difficult to obtain compensation for the loss. In these instances you need to have a competent legal advocate who can help you meet your goals as well as those of the insurer.

When the other driver's liability limits aren't high enough to pay for your losses, you may be able to file a claim under your own insurance policy's underinsured/uninsured motorist coverage. This type of insurance is usually included in a comprehensive insurance policy and can provide you with important security in the event of being involved in a serious collision.

The process to file a UIM/UM is similar to the traditional claim for auto accidents. The process typically involves submitting copies your medical bills as well as auto repair bills. The insurance company will look over these documents along with other ones to determine whether your losses are covered by the other driver's policy.

It's best to consult with an New York City car accident attorney as soon as is possible after the crash and file an UIM/UM claim immediately especially if the other driver states that they don't have or have insufficient insurance coverage. This allows your lawyer to work with the other driver's insurance provider and their own underinsured/uninsured coverage providers to get you maximum compensation for your loss.

Property Damage

The law of New York State is based on negligence in a comparative manner. This means that if you are found to be partially responsible for an accident, you'll be penalized by the proportion of blame you are awarded. In addition, the defendant could be found to be completely responsible for the accident, and thus not eligible to recover at all.

It is not advisable to give any written or oral declarations to representatives of insurance companies of the parties who are at fault as they may be used in court later against you. It is also crucial to consult a doctor right away after the accident, since certain injuries can take a while to be discovered and could be used against you if you attempt to obtain compensation for your injuries later.
