Motor Vehicle Collisions
We represent people who are injured in motor vehicle collisions due to the negligence or recklessness of others.
We represent people who are injured in motor vehicle collisions due to the negligence or recklessness of others. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, traffic-related fatalities have spiked dramatically in recent years, with almost 43,000 people killed in 2022. Beyond fatalities, there are countless additional traffic crashes that victims survive with serious injuries, often injuries that are permanent and debilitating. Whether it be due to intoxicated drivers or distracted ones, nearly all of these tragedies are preventable.
This is why the term “auto accident” is hardly ever a true description for one of these events; such events are not true accidents if they are preventable in the exercise of reasonable care. If you have been injured in a crash as the result of someone’s negligence or recklessness, you deserve accountability and justice. We have a team here ready to meet you and fight for your rights. We will not allow the insurance companies involved, whether it be the adverse driver’s insurance or your own, take advantage of you. We will work with the insurance carriers and adjusters to make sure you receive the best settlement possible. If they do not cooperate, we will take your case to trial or arbitration.
What Do I Do If I Have Been Injured?
FIVE MAIN GOALS
ONE
If you have been injured in a motor vehicle crash, always make sure to retrieve the adverse driver’s identification, contact information, and insurance cards. If 911 has not been called, give them a call without delay and ensure that first responders make contact with you to evaluate the scene and your injuries.
TWO
Always remember to do your best to have photographs taken of the scene from all angles, the vehicles involved, and any injuries you or your loved one have sustained.
THREE
Always try your best to identify any and all third-party witnesses who were on scene and assisting the parties involved. It is best to gather their full names and contact numbers along with their perspectives as witnesses to the incident.
Four
Always report the incident to your own insurance company as soon as reasonably possible. However, never agree to a recorded interview with any insurance company, whether your own or otherwise, prior to consulting with and hiring an attorney. It is also important to never guess about or downplay your injuries when talking to insurance adjusters. You will also want to ensure that the DMV has been notified anytime anyone is injured in a motor vehicle crash.
FIVE
Find and hire an attorney to represent you to take on all the stress and work of such an event off your shoulders. At Becker Law, LLC, we pride ourselves as being more accessible and attentive to our clients than most other law firms out there. We are truly aggressive and will not allow you to be taken advantage of by adverse parties and insurance companies.
