Car accidents killed more than 32,000 people in the U.S. in 2010. According to the National Highway Safety Commission this is the lowest number of auto fatalities in over 60 years. Yet in California auto accidents, over 3000 people were killed last year alone; thousands more were seriously injured.
After an accident the property damage and personal injury claims are typically settled or litigated in the courts. In most cases the money that is recovered for auto accidents and other personal injury cases usually comes from the at fault parties insurance company.
If the accident was not your fault or even in cases where you may be found partially at fault you may be able to recover the compensation you deserve for your injuries. The comparative negligence of the other driver may make it possible to recover a settlement or even a verdict which could compensate you for your injuries.
If you have been seriously injured, it is vital that you know your rights before you speak with the insurance company. The insurance companies have nearly unlimited resources when it comes to fighting claims made against their drivers policies which is why know you rights before speaking to them is paramount. An attorney who specializes in California auto accidents can advise you of your rights and help you get the compensation you need to recover for your injuries.
