Common Causes for Auto Accidents
Car accidents occur on a daily basis. While some car accidents are just that, an accident, other times they occur because of another person's negligent or reckless actions. Common causes for car accidents include:
Distracted driving - texting, or talking on the phone
Aggressive or reckless driving - failure to yield, road rage, speeding, or tailgating
Negligence - accidentally running stop signs or red lights
Impaired driving - drowsiness, medicated, or driving under the influence
Defective vehicles - faulty brakes, blown tires, or broken head and tailights
Inclement weather conditions - snow, ice, or heavy rain
Road conditions - traffic flow, poor road maintenance, debris in the road and fault signage
Steps to Take After a Car Accident
The time following an automobile accident can be confusing and complicated. Getting proper medical attention should be your first priority, and we can help you find qualified doctors. Our attorneys will come to you even if you are in the hospital. They can determine if you have a personal injury case and advise you on the best course of action to ensure your rights are protected.
Determining Who Is At Fault In a Car Wreck
This process can be tricky, and if the accident involves many cars, or is particularly severe, it may even result in a case to determine who is at fault. Initially, police officers will interview each driver separately about the incident. After gathering the information that they can, they’ll submit the report. From there, insurance companies will determine who was at fault. Sometimes there may be several at-fault parties.
Getting Information From All Involved Parties
After the police have gathered information, you will need to exchange information with the other parties involved. This can include insurance information, names, addresses, and anything you may deem necessary to getting your claim settled. However, it’s important to watch your language and communication with the other party during settlement. Anything you say can be used against you during a claim, and a simple apology for the accident may be taken as an admittance of fault.Â
Car accidents happen quickly and without warning. If you feel like you need representation or guidance, we’re here to help.

I could not be happier with the settlement I received in my auto accident. Not only did I get more than expected but they also negotiated with the hospital to have my bills reduced. Great firm and people. They even reduced their fee to see that I got more money! Truly Outstanding.
