NEGLIGENT DRIVERS CAUSE SERIOUS VEHICLE ACCIDENTS
Most accidents are caused by human error. When a driver is distracted, fatigued or reckless in some other way, they threaten the safety of everyone they share the road with. All it takes is a split second of bad driving to veer into another lane and cause a head-on collision. When a negligent driver causes another motorist harm, the injured motorist shouldn’t have to pay the costs stemming from their injury.
All drivers are required to carry insurance in case they are involved in a vehicle accident. If you’ve been hurt in a head-on collision in Macon, you might be owed money from the other driver’s insurance company. Even though an insurer should pay you reasonable compensation for the damages you’ve experienced, these companies might offer you less than you deserve or deny you payment entirely.
The Macon head-on collision attorneys at the Mann Law Firm make sure that bad drivers and their insurance companies pay you what you need. Contact the Mann Law Firm to learn more about your legal options by scheduling a free consultation.
The Mann Law Firm has been fighting for injury victims for decades and continues to stand alongside their clients in need.
COMMON CAUSES OF HEAD-ON COLLISIONS
Many types of reckless driving could lead to a head-on collision with another vehicle. Here are a few of the most common:
- Impaired driving from drugs or alcohol
- Distracted driving
- Driving the wrong way on a one-way street
- Fatigue or falling asleep while driving
- Failure to change driving behavior in bad weather with low visibility.
All of the above are examples of negligent driving. If another driver has caused an accident because they were careless behind the wheel, they should be held responsible for the financial consequences of their actions. You might not be sure why the other driver veered into your lane. You can leave that task to the Mann Law Firm, your trusted vehicle accident lawyer .
We will investigate the cause of your crash to find out why it happened, and we’ll make sure you get the payment you need.
INJURIES YOU MIGHT BE LIVING WITH
Head-on collisions lead to some of the most devastating injuries imaginable. The force generated by the two vehicles traveling in opposite directions leads to an impact far greater than most other types of crashes. A few of the most common injuries in head-on collisions include…
- Back and neck injuries
- Spinal injuries
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Extensive soft tissue damage
- Whiplash
- Internal injuries
- Wrongful death.
These injuries are costly and painful. They might take years to heal and require extensive medical treatment. This adds up to expensive medical bills, lost time at work and a great deal of pain and suffering. The injuries and the costs of a head-on collision can be the basis for a personal injury claim if you aren’t given the compensation you deserve from an insurance company.
The many costs you face can be factored as damages in a claim. At the Mann Law Firm, we’ll help you determine how much you should seek in a claim, and we’ll get to work on your case to ensure the other side pays you for the harm you’ve suffered.
Frequently Asked Questions
Get Answers to Common Questions
We have answered a few commonly posed questions below and are ready to answer any more questions you might have. Call at any time for pertinent information.
Should I hire a lawyer to represent me?
Hiring a lawyer significantly increases the likelihood that you will receive proper compensation for your head-on collision accident. Proper compensation means damages commensurate with the losses you have suffered.
Sadly, many car accident victims take the first insurance offer they receive instead of having an attorney review it. In most cases, insurance companies offer too little money initially in hopes of getting an acceptance. Because car accident victims generally do not understand the breadth of damages available to them, many take the first offer and leave much compensation behind. At the Mann Law Firm, we fight for every bit of compensation available by law.
How much money do I need up front to hire an attorney?
Our services require no upfront payments. Additionally, if we don’t win compensation for you, you owe us nothing.
What is the statute of limitations for traffic cases?
There is a two-year statute of limitations for traffic cases in Georgia. However, when the victim is a minor, the statute of limitations does not apply until the minor reaches their 18th birthday. Crime victims may also have different statute of limitations rules.
How much compensation will I receive?
Your compensation total will be the sum of all of your compensable damages, including medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering damages. We’ll aggressively negotiate with insurance companies on your behalf or compel them to pay in court.
If you have further questions, we’ve got the answers. Reach out to our office at your convenience to discuss your case and pose questions to our accident attorneys.
