Causes and Liability in Car Accidents

Thousands of car accidents happen every day, and almost all of them are avoidable and caused by human error. Any individual, company, or other organization that causes a car accident can be held liable for all damages suffered by their victims. We start each case by fully investigating the accident to ensure we hold everyone who shares blame accountable. Our attorneys are experienced in handling all types of car accidents, including highly complex crashes.

Holding Negligent Drivers Responsible

Driver distraction, speed, and intoxication are common causes of accidents across the nation. There is no excuse for negligent or reckless behavior behind the wheel. All too often, the at-fault party or their insurance company will deny they acted negligently at the time of the accident. However, by employing methods such as preserving surveillance footage, checking phone and internet activity records, taking witness statements, and retaining qualified experts, our attorneys will gather the evidence necessary to prove the other party’s fault.

Commercial Accidents

Whether you were hit by a delivery driver, a semi-truck, or a businessperson driving to a meeting in a company car, obtaining compensation after an accident involving a commercial vehicle involves a unique process. Our attorneys are skilled in prosecuting claims against companies whose employees act negligently and injure others. We will do our part to ensure an employer does not get away with the negligent acts of its employees.

Uber/Lyft and Other Rideshare Accidents

Rideshare vehicles are all over our roads and are just as likely to be in an accident as any other vehicle. However, a driver’s personal insurance often does not cover Uber or Lyft rides or other commercial activities such as delivery for GrubHub or UberEats. However, you do have options to recover compensation—so make sure you reach out to an attorney with experience litigating these claims as soon as possible. We are ready to pursue a claim for you against Uber, Lyft, or any other company that employs “gig” drivers.

Defective Autos

Steering components, autopilot, brakes, transmissions, and tires are just some of the parts that can cause a serious accident when they malfunction. Even aspects of the design of the vehicle itself may be dangerous. When an accident happens faulty airbags, seatbelts, and parts of the car frame can fail, leaving drivers and passengers with injuries should not have experienced. Our attorneys will retain experienced engineers and industry experts to uncover and prove flaws in a vehicle’s design or manufacturing and can help you bring a case against the companies that have caused you harm.

Dangerous Road Design or Conditions

Drivers can only do so much when a road is not built to prioritize safety. When collisions are caused by dangerous roadway conditions, their victims may be able to hold a city, county, or state liable for its failure to properly design, construct and/or maintain roads. Such cases have shorter filing deadlines and other required procedures than does a typical injury claim, so make sure your attorney has experience handling claims against a government entity. Our team at Dreyer Babich Buccola Wood Campora has handled countless cases of this type, and look forward to bringing our experience to advance your cause.

Having an Experienced Accident Lawyer Comes with Many Benefits

By law, you are entitled to recuperate your losses in a car accident from the at-fault party, through that person’s insurance—so is a lawyer necessary? If you want to receive full and fair compensation, the answer is almost always a resounding yes.

The most important thing to remember after a car accident is that an insurance adjuster (or any other representative of whoever was at fault) is not on your side. In fact, without a lawyer on your case, you have no one to represent your interests. Insurers and adjustment companies try to pay the least amount possible with accident claims because your settlement comes out of their bottom line. However, they know when we’re involved that their low-ball strategies won’t work.

While saying no to an unfair settlement is easy, negotiating with an adjuster or attorney to get the help you need is difficult for an unrepresented party. Insurance adjusters make a living negotiating settlements, which means they will come into each conversation armed with strategies that can be hard to counter. Our attorneys do not tolerate this gamesmanship and will level the playing field. If you are not represented by someone with experience in these matters, you will likely end up failing to receive the compensation you deserve.

Having a team that the insurance companies know is ready to litigate for you, provides you with leverage, which is why you should work with a team of skilled trial lawyers like Dreyer Babich Buccola Wood Campora. Trials are expensive, and insurers often decide that it’s in their best interest to pay up rather than spend the money to go to court and risk losing in the process. We are prepared to litigate every claim we take, and defendants know this - insurance companies end up paying all of what they owe not just what they want to pay.
