Car Accident Overview
Were You Injured in a Car Accident?
Americans are more likely to die in a motor vehicle accident than from any cause except heart disease or cancer, according to the National Safety Council. Sooner or later nearly everyone who drives a car will be involved in a car accident of some kind.
At Gary Martin Hays & Associates, we help you put your life together after a car accident. When unfortunate events occur you can rely on us to guide you through the difficult times and help you obtain the financial compensation you deserve for the damages you have suffered. We represent victims of all types of vehicle accidents, including:
- Car accidents: Many car wrecks aren't accidents at all. They are caused by negligence, recklessness or carelessness. We identify liable parties and hold them accountable.
- Vehicle rollover accidents: SUVs, vans and trucks are at high risk of rollover accidents, which put occupants in danger of head injuries from crushed roofs.
- DUI & drug-related accidents: If a drunk or drug-impaired driver injured you, our attorneys can pursue compensation even if the person who caused the accident was not convicted in criminal court.
- Drunk driver accidents: When someone drinks to excess and gets behind the wheel, he or she puts everyone else on the road at risk. We hold them accountable for that decision.
- Drug-related car accidents: If the driver who injured you was under the influence of a controlled substance, you may be able to pursue punitive damages as well as compensatory damages.
- Uninsured or under insured motorists: We will help you recover compensation from your own insurance policy's uninsured and underinsured driver coverage.
- Fatal car accidents: We represent the survivors of those who died a wrongful death in car accidents caused by negligence.
- Car vs. truck accidents: Truck accidents are legally much more complex than the typical car accident.
- Work-related car accidents: If you were injured in a car accident while performing the duties of your job, we will help you obtain workers' compensation benefits and, perhaps, more.
- Auto insurance claims: We will take steps to make your insurance company lives up to the terms of its policy.
- What to do after a car accident: Few people know what to do after an accident. Don't be one of them.
