Auto Accident Attorneys
Have you been in an accident?
A competent auto accident attorney can meet with you and your family members to discuss the potential for filing an auto accident
lawsuit. There are rules and regulations which must be followed when filing an auto accident lawsuit, so it is vital that the
auto accident attorney is able to describe everything in great detail and in a manner that can be easily understood.
In a recent personal injury settlement in Colorado, a well known auto accident attorney was able to wrap up his pending
auto accident lawsuit and bring his client an offer that exceeded one million dollars. This personal injury settlement had been
poorly publicized and in fact slipped under the rug that typically would have drawn a crowd of reporters and swarmed the
auto accident attorney and his client to the point of harassment. The guilty party was a well known member of the community in
very high standing, and he had an auto accident because he had been excessively drinking. The jail time he was facing didn't even
begin to cover the damage he left behind as he drove away without checking if the accident victims were okay.
Auto accidents are the leading cause of brain and spinal cord injury in the U.S. According to recent statistics,
car accidents currently account for approximately 60% of all traumatic brain injuries. Motorcycle accidents, too, claim responsibility for
about 20% of transportation-related head injuries, and brain and spinal cord injuries occur to children, most often when they are
passengers in motor vehicles. With the frequency of auto accidents on the rise, and the nature of accident-related injuries growing
more serious, car accidents are often the subject of personal injury lawsuits and litigation. Current statistics reveal that fatal
car crashes average 37,409 per year, with driver fatalities at 25,492 and auto passenger fatalities at 10,699.
