The damages you might seek will depend on the nature of your case and the severity of your injuries, but in general, the most common forms of compensation include the following:
Car accident injuries can lead to substantial medical expenses. The responsible party may be on the hook for the expenses their negligence incurred. That can include the initial ambulance ride and trip to St. Luke’s Hospital, further hospital visits, doctor’s appointments, medical devices, prescription medications, physical therapy, rehabilitation, and future medical costs.
Limited mobility and chronic pain can keep you out of work indefinitely and, in some cases, permanently. When that’s the case, you may be entitled to compensation for your lost wages. The responsible party may be liable for lost hourly wages or salary, vacation and sick time, medical benefits, commissions or tips, missed raises or promotions, future wages, and more.
Most car accident cases involve damage to your vehicle and other property – and sometimes that damage is catastrophic. It’s your legal right to seek compensation for that damaged property. That can include compensation for repair or replacement, and potentially diminished resale value.
The physical and mental toll your injuries can take often weighs even more heavily than the financial burdens they incur. Compensation for pain and suffering is generally calculated based on the severity of your injuries, their impact on your daily life and finances, and the length of time your pain has affected you.
Every personal injury case has its own nuances that factor into pursuing a claim. The following aspects of car accident cases differentiate them from most others:
The team at Holland Injury Law, LLC, has extensive experience handling the nuances of car accident cases. We can obtain your police report and analyze it ourselves, reconstruct the accident scene, and deal with any insurance company attempts to minimize your compensation or deny your claim.
Our team of experienced personal injury attorneys will gladly fight for your right to compensation, but protecting your rights after a car accident begins with you. Here’s what to do in the days and weeks following the incident:
You have 30 days to file your police report after your accident, but the faster you do it, the better. Your police report will detail the date, time, location, and circumstance of the accident, along with weather and road conditions, statements from the individuals involved and any witnesses, and more. It can serve as a critical document in your case.
You can never have too much evidence to support your claims. Take photos and videos of the accident scene, including anything confirming conditions or hazards that may have caused it and damage to your vehicle. Save all communications, medical bills, proof of expenses, and any other relevant documents.
Your insurance company needs to know about your accident, but they will undoubtedly try and learn more than they have to. Insurance companies will look to protect their profits by coaxing unnecessary recorded statements, prying for unneeded medical records, and pushing for quick settlements that benefit nobody but them. It’s always wise to speak with a lawyer before informing them and never offer more than what is absolutely necessary.
Consulting a lawyer as soon as possible is always wise. You don’t need to pay any money to have your case assessed, and they can help you gather all the right information and avoid any costly errors.
In short, yes. Handling a car accident claim on your own as you recover from your injuries is a tall task. Your personal injury lawyer can do the following:
