Car wrecks kill people every day, even though no one thinks it will ever happen to them or their loved ones. A recent U.S. Department of Transportation study shows a continuing rise in car accident deaths across this country; and, car crashes remain the main cause of death for teenagers between the ages of 15 and 19.
Drunk driving is a big contributing factor to car accident deaths in our local community. For example, according to statistics compiled by Mothers Against Drunk Drivers (MADD), 24% of New Jersey car accident fatalities had a driver with a blood alcohol content (BAC) of .08+.
If you or a loved one has been seriously injured in a car accident involving a negligent or drunk driver, state law provides you with reimbursement for medical expenses; lost wages; pain and suffering; mental anguish; physical impairment and/or disfigurement, along with other damages. Even if your injuries are relatively minor, money damages may still be available to you including recouping your property losses (like property damage to your car, truck, or motorcycle). If your family is facing the tragic and untimely loss of a loved one because of a car accident, state law will also provide you with damages for their wrongful death.
Recovering from a car crash, motorcycle accident, or truck accident is always a difficult and emotional time for you and your loved ones. Having an experienced, aggressive attorney at your side, to help you obtain all the legal damages available to you and your family is very important, especially when you must negotiate with professional insurance adjusters.
Beware Communicating With Any Insurance Company Representative without Your Attorney
Insurance companies are motivated to keep the amount that they pay on any one claim as low as possible. Why? Insurance companies are for-profit corporations with shareholders wanting maximized profits and customers wanting low policy premiums.
The insurance company representatives and claims adjusters negotiate motor vehicle accident claims with accident victims having these profit considerations in mind. They are not concerned with what is best for the injury victim to receive. Therefore, it is very important that car accident victims have an aggressive and knowledgeable negotiating attorney at their side, to protect their best interests.
