Review from Google: “I was in an accident… I ended up in the ER with lots of soft tissue damage. I got in touch with the law firm DeWitt Algorri and Algorri. Ernie Algorri helped me personally. He helped with all the medical and physical therapy. When I needed to give a deposition he picked me up and took me to it. He did everything I needed a good lawyer to do. He advised me, and gave me choices which lead to a favorable outcome for me.” Pat G.
Car Crashes and Their Consequences
The type of car accident, your injuries, and your financial losses play a role in determining the value of your case. To provide details on those factors, your San Bernardino & Riverside car accident attorney at DeWitt Algorri & Algorri will investigate your accident, determine who is at fault and why, and value your losses. Identifying the type of accident is first. Some common types of accidents include the following:
- Rollovers
- Rear-end accidents
- Sideswipes
- T-bone accidents
- Multi-vehicle crashes
- Head-on collisions
Once your attorney has identified the type of crash, they can work on determining the cause. Car accident claims are based on the concept of negligence. This means your lawyer needs to prove that the other driver owed you a duty to drive responsibly, that he or she breached that duty and, as a result, caused your losses. Common examples of driver negligence include:
- Distracted driving
- Speeding
- Drunk driving
- Failing to yield
- Running stop signs or traffic lights
- Merging incorrectly
After identifying the cause of your accident, your attorney will start valuing your claim. There are a number of factors that impact the potential compensation. However, your attorney will likely begin with your injuries and related medical expenses. Some of the most common car accident injuries include the following:
- Broken bones
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Bruises and lacerations
- Soft tissue injuries
- Spinal cord injuries
- Burns
No matter what type of accident you were in, it is crucial to consider contacting an attorney to learn about your rights and how to recover compensation for your related losses. Evidence fades with time, and you may be dealing with an inability to file a claim as a result of California’s laws regarding the time to legally file – known as the statute of limitations. The sooner you file a claim the better your chances are of pursuing a successful claim.
Why Work With a Car Accident Attorney?
Car accident victims may be hesitant to seek guidance or representation from law firms. This is often because of common misconceptions and negative stereotypes. However, it is essential to understand the benefits of working with an attorney, so you can decide if doing so is suitable for your situation.
To start, people are often concerned about the cost of a lawyer. Know that our law firm operates on a contingency fee basis. You won’t pay us a dime unless we win your case. If you receive a settlement award or jury verdict, our fees will come out of that amount, so you never have to worry about paying out-of-pocket.
You may also worry that you are partially at fault for the accident. California allows victims who are up to 99% responsible for an accident to seek compensation for their losses. We can determine if you are eligible for payment and how much that could be reduced based on fault no matter what happened.
Learn How to Maximize Your Claim Compensation
Valuing a car accident claim usually begins by evaluating injuries and determining the cost of current medical bills. Your lawyer can also consider any lost earnings and the potential for future hospital bills and lost wages. Those damages are considered economic because they are based on actual “out-of-pocket” sums of money.
Your lawyer can also determine if you are eligible for “noneconomic damages” such as pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, disfigurement, emotional distress, etc., and are often awarded when a victim’s suffering has been particularly challenging.
No matter your losses, the severity of your injuries, or what your future looks like, DeWitt, Algorri & Algorri will fight on your behalf to ensure you receive a full and fair compensation amount for your accident, so you have the opportunity to move forward.
