Car accidents are the most common cause of serious injury on American roads. Even a crash that seems minor can cause whiplash, concussions or back injuries that worsen over the following days. Our car accident lawyers help injured drivers and passengers hold negligent drivers accountable.
Common Causes of Car Accidents
- Distracted driving, including texting and phone use
- Speeding and following too closely
- Running red lights and stop signs
- Unsafe lane changes and failure to yield
- Driving while impaired or fatigued
- Dangerous road conditions or defective vehicle parts
Common Car Accident Injuries
Neck and back injuries, broken bones, concussions and traumatic brain injuries, internal injuries and psychological trauma are all frequent results of car crashes. Some injuries are not obvious at the scene, which is why prompt medical evaluation matters both for your health and for your claim.
What to Do After a Car Accident
- Call 911 and get medical attention
- Photograph the vehicles, the scene and your injuries
- Collect contact and insurance details from everyone involved
- Avoid giving a recorded statement to the other driver's insurer before getting advice
- Keep copies of medical bills and records of missed work
