According to the NHTSA, about 40,000 people are killed, and two and a half million people are injured, in motor vehicle accidents every year in the U.S.  Nearly 10% of car accident victims become disabled.  Most of the time, these accidents are caused by someone’s negligence in running a red light or stop sign, failing to look in all proper directions before entering a street or making a turn, making an illegal or unsafe lane change, speeding, using a cell phone or texting, becoming fatigued or ingesting alcohol or drugs, failing to yield right of way, or otherwise acting carelessly.

When should you contact a car accident lawyer?

If you or a loved one has been involved in an automobile accident, it is extremely important to talk to a qualified auto accident attorney immediately.

Rose accepts your automobile accident injury claim, an investigation is started immediately and swift action is taken to secure and preserve evidence relevant to your claim. We work with auto accident reconstruction experts to prove that the other party is at fault, utilize medical experts to support your claim for the full extent of your injuries, and will work expeditiously to obtain for you the maximum compensation allowed by law.

Why you need a car accident attorney

Many car accident victims believe that injury claim resolution is something they can easily handle without hiring a qualified car accident lawyer, and they attempt to negotiate directly with insurance companies. This is not advisable. Insurance companies are in the business of collecting premiums and paying out as little as possible for claims. If a victim is not represented by a qualified auto accident attorney, an insurance company will usually try to settle the claim to the insurance company’s advantage.

When dealing with motor vehicle accident victims, insurance companies usually pretend at the outset that they want to fairly compensate the victim, but then take advantage of them by taking a recorded statement from them regarding the cause of the accident, have them examined by their doctors, and otherwise build their case against them, and end up offering an unfairly low settlement amount.

The types of damages that can be recovered in an auto accident claim

The Law Office Of Daniel H. Rose is a proficient and experienced car accident law firm with a long track record of obtaining for clients the compensation and accountability they deserve. An individual who negligently operates a motor vehicle may be liable for a wide variety of damages that an accident can cause, including but not limited to the following:

• Medical Expenses. This includes medical expenses to treat your injury, such as surgery, doctor’s visits, hospital and emergency room expenses, fees for chiropractic care, physical therapy and any types of medical devices that you need during your recovery.
• Future Medical Expenses. You can also recover for any continued medical care you may need as a result of the accident. This amount will be determined by your doctors or other medical providers, working with your attorney and medical experts hired by your attorney.
• Pain and Suffering. Pain and suffering damages include physical pain resulting from your injury. The damages are based on the severity of the pain and how long you will likely be in pain.
• Mental Anguish. Any type of mental or emotional distress you suffer as a result of an accident can also be claimed. These could include apprehension, fright, anxiety, grief, shock and loss of dignity.
• Lost Wages. You can recover damages for the amount of money you would have earned between the time of your injury and the settlement or judgment. If you were unemployed at the time of the accident, you can still recover lost wages if you can show what you could have earned during that time.
• Loss of Earning Capacity. You can recover damages for lost earning capacity, if you can show that your ability to earn money in the future has been impaired.
• Loss of Consortium. This refers to the loss of the benefits of married life to your spouse which have resulted from your injury.
• Property Damage. This compensates you for the value of your property that was damaged as a result of your accident.
