Automobile Accidents and Damages
Auto accidents are generally decided using the law of negligence. If a person was operating a vehicle inappropriately resulting in personal injury and/or property damage, he may be required to pay the damages that were caused by his negligence. Negligence is defined as intentional or reckless conduct that ultimately caused the accident. If we can prove that you suffered due to someone else's negligence, you may be able to collect compensation for:
- Medical bills
- Prescriptions
- Physical rehabilitation (if necessary)
- Lost wages
- Future lost wages
- Loss of companionship (in the case of a wrongful death)
- Funeral expenses (in the case of a wrongful death)
- Pain and suffering (if applicable)

Automobile Accidents Due to Car and/or Tire Defects
There may also be instances of auto accidents where no driver was at fault, but some defect in the car or a tire caused the accident. Our attorneys have handled many product liability cases involving defective automobiles, and we can help you hold the negligent manufacturer accountable for your damages.
Product liability law varies from state to state and can be very confusing. Therefore, it is important to work with an attorney who has a strong understanding of the laws governing defective product claims in your state.
