Types Of Car Accident Claims That Our Team Handles
Car accidents have many forms. Each kind has distinct characteristics and a range of potential consequences. Our experienced personal injury lawyers have experience helping clients with a diverse spectrum of auto accidents. Just a few types of accidents that our car accident lawyers have seen include:
- Rear-end crashes: When one motor vehicle strikes the bumper of another. Frequently caused by sudden braking, distracted driving or faulty brake equipment.
- Head-on crashes: This type of accident involves two vehicles colliding front-to-front, typically resulting in severe damage and injuries.
- Side collisions (t-bone accidents): These accidents happen when the front of one vehicle crashes into another vehicle’s side, often at intersections.
- Left-turn accidents: When one vehicle turning left does not see the vehicle going straight, crashing into its side as a result.
- Sideswipes: Occurring when two vehicles traveling parallel make contact, usually caused by lane changes without checking blind spots.
- Jackknife accidents: When the cargo trailer of a semi-truck or tractor-trailer slides forward towards the driver’s cabin.
- Hit-and-run crashes: In these incidents, a driver involved in a collision leaves the scene without providing contact information or assistance.
- High-speed collisions: Accidents that occur at high speeds. Speeding increases the likelihood of significant damage and serious injuries.
- Rollovers: These accidents involve a vehicle tipping over onto its side or roof, often due to sharp turns or collisions.
- Multi-car accidents: These complex accidents involve several vehicles and can result from chain reactions, especially in poor weather or heavy traffic conditions.
Some particularly complex car accidents can have two or more factors. This can make determining liability confusing if you do not have an attorney. Fortunately, our car accident lawyers handle complicated car crash claims with ease, focusing on identifying all sources of compensation.
We Cannot Emphasize This Enough: Get A Car Accident Lawyer
On the basis of our years of experience in personal injury law, we caution people who have been injured or lost loved ones in motor vehicle accidents.
- Not to talk to insurance agents or even family and friends about the details of your accident before talking to a qualified lawyer
- Not to accept quick settlement offers before knowing what your long-term car crash injury prognosis is, in consultation with medical personnel and your attorney
- Not to wait to contact an attorney, since valuable evidence may be lost if the investigation is postponed
- Not to talk to the other person’s insurance adjuster. They may be friendly, but they will be very unfair and will certainly not have your interests in mind.
Insurance companies and advisers of “the other driver” have very different priorities from yours. The outcome of your case can impact your life for months, years or a lifetime. For best results, it is critical to work closely with an experienced car accident law firm.
Don’t Miss The Ohio Statute Of Limitations
In Ohio, individuals involved in car accidents have a two-year statute of limitations to file a claim. This period begins from the date of the accident and applies to personal injury and property damage claims. It is crucial for victims to act promptly, as failing to file within this time frame can result in losing the right to pursue compensation. Prompt legal action ensures that your car accident lawyer can preserve evidence and interview witnesses. Even if injuries or damages do not appear immediately, consult a legal professional to explore options and secure rights within the statutory period.
