Types of Car Accidents We Help With

  • T-Bone Collisions
    T-Bone collisions, also known as side-impact accidents, typically occur at intersections when one vehicle strikes the side of another. These accidents can be particularly dangerous due to the limited protection on the sides of vehicles, often resulting in serious injuries such as broken ribs, internal injuries, and head trauma.

  • Rollover Accidents
    Rollover accidents are among the most severe types of vehicle crashes, frequently involving SUVs or trucks that are more prone to tipping over due to their higher center of gravity. These accidents can be triggered by sharp turns at high speeds, collisions with other vehicles, or even road hazards. The consequences are often catastrophic, leading to spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, and fatalities.

  • Single-Vehicle Accidents
    Single-vehicle accidents occur when a driver loses control of their vehicle, often resulting in the car running off the road or hitting a stationary object. These accidents can be caused by various factors, such as hazardous road conditions, poor signage, or vehicle defects.

  • Pedestrian Accidents
    Pedestrian accidents happen when a vehicle strikes a person on foot, leading to devastating injuries or death. These accidents are often caused by driver negligence, such as failure to yield, distracted driving, or speeding in pedestrian-heavy areas. 

  • Bicycle Accidents
    Bicyclists are highly vulnerable on the road, and accidents involving motor vehicles can result in severe injuries, including fractures, head injuries, and spinal damage. These accidents are often the result of drivers failing to share the road, ignoring traffic signals, or not paying attention.

  • Motorcycle Accidents
    Motorcycle riders face unique risks on the road, and when accidents occur, the results are often catastrophic due to the lack of protection compared to other vehicles. Motorcycle accidents can be caused by a variety of factors, including driver inattention, road hazards, and vehicle defects.

  • Distracted Driving Accidents
    Distracted driving has become a leading cause of accidents in recent years, largely due to the widespread use of smartphones and other in-car technologies. Whether it’s texting, using GPS, or even eating while driving, distractions can lead to devastating crashes.

  • Rear-End Accidents
    Rear-end accidents are some of the most common types of collisions and often result in injuries like whiplash, back injuries, and soft tissue damage. These accidents typically occur when a driver is following too closely or not paying attention to the road.

  • Uninsured and Underinsured Motorist Claims
    Being involved in an accident with an uninsured or underinsured driver can complicate the process of obtaining compensation. In such cases, victims may need to file a claim through their own insurance policy.

  • Intersection Accidents
    Accidents at intersections are particularly common and often result from drivers running red lights, failing to stop at stop signs, or making illegal turns. These accidents can lead to severe injuries due to the high-speed nature of the collisions.

  • Hit-and-Run Accidents
    A hit-and-run accident occurs when a driver leaves the scene of a crash without providing contact information or helping the injured parties. These cases are challenging because identifying the at-fault driver is crucial to pursuing compensation.

  • Commercial Vehicle Accidents
    Accidents involving commercial vehicles, such as delivery trucks or company cars, often involve more complex liability issues due to the involvement of large corporations and their insurance companies. These cases require specialized knowledge to navigate the additional layers of responsibility.

  • Road Rage Incidents
    Aggressive driving and road rage can lead to dangerous and intentional acts on the road, resulting in accidents and injuries. These incidents often involve reckless behavior such as tailgating, weaving through traffic, or intentionally causing harm to other drivers.

  • Construction Zone Accidents
    Construction zones are fraught with potential hazards, including unclear signage, debris on the road, and sudden changes in traffic patterns. Accidents in these zones can be caused by negligent workers, poorly maintained equipment, or inadequate safety measures.

  • Multi-Car Pile-Ups
    Multi-car pile-ups involve several vehicles and can occur on highways, particularly during adverse weather conditions. These accidents are complex, with multiple parties potentially sharing liability. 

  • Drunk Driving Accidents
    Drunk driving remains a leading cause of serious car accidents, often resulting in severe injuries or fatalities. We pursue maximum compensation for victims of drunk driving accidents, including punitive damages where applicable, to hold the responsible drivers fully accountable for their reckless behavior.

  • Accidents Caused by Defective Auto Parts
    Sometimes, an accident is the result of a defective vehicle component, such as brakes, tires, or airbags. In these cases, the manufacturer or supplier may be held liable for the injuries caused by their defective product.

  • Weather-Related Accidents
    Weather conditions like rain, snow, fog, and ice can contribute to accidents, but drivers are still expected to operate their vehicles safely in these conditions. If a driver fails to adjust to the weather and causes an accident, they can be held liable for the damages.

Common Car Accident Injuries

Car accidents can result in a wide range of injuries, from minor cuts and bruises to life-threatening conditions. Common injuries include:

  • Whiplash and Neck Injuries: Often caused by rear-end collisions, these can lead to chronic pain and long-term complications.
  • Head and Brain Injuries: Concussions, traumatic brain injuries (TBI), and skull fractures can have lasting effects on cognitive and physical abilities.
  • Back and Spinal Cord Injuries: Ranging from herniated discs to paralysis, these injuries can significantly impact a victim’s quality of life.
  • Broken Bones and Fractures: Arms, legs, ribs, and other bones can be broken in high-impact collisions, requiring surgery and extensive rehabilitation.
  • Internal Injuries: Damage to internal organs, such as the liver, spleen, or lungs, can occur in severe accidents, often requiring emergency surgery.
  • Emotional and Psychological Trauma: PTSD, anxiety, and depression are common among car accident victims, sometimes requiring long-term therapy.

Causes of Car Accidents

Understanding the causes of car accidents can help in determining liability and preventing future incidents. Common causes include:

  • Distracted Driving: Texting, talking on the phone, eating, or using in-car technologies are major distractions that lead to accidents.
  • Speeding: Driving over the speed limit reduces reaction time and increases the severity of collisions.
  • Driving Under the Influence: Alcohol and drugs impair judgment, coordination, and reaction times, leading to dangerous driving behaviors.
  • Reckless Driving: Aggressive behaviors such as tailgating, weaving through traffic, and running red lights increase the risk of accidents.
  • Poor Weather Conditions: Rain, snow, fog, and ice make roads slippery and reduce visibility, leading to a higher likelihood of accidents.
  • Vehicle Defects: Faulty brakes, tire blowouts, and other mechanical failures can cause drivers to lose control of their vehicles.

Damages Available to Car Accident Victims

If you’ve been injured in a car accident, you may be entitled to various types of compensation, including:

  • Medical Expenses: Coverage for hospital bills, surgeries, medications, physical therapy, and future medical care.
  • Lost Wages: Compensation for income lost due to your inability to work during recovery, as well as future earnings if your ability to work is permanently impacted.
  • Pain and Suffering: Non-economic damages for physical pain, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life.
  • Property Damage: Compensation for the repair or replacement of your vehicle and any personal property damaged in the accident.
  • Loss of Consortium: Damages awarded to spouses or family members for the loss of companionship and support due to the victim’s injuries.
  • Punitive Damages: In cases of extreme negligence or intentional harm, additional damages may be awarded to punish the at-fault party and deter similar behavior.
