Who is at fault for your car accident?

There are a number of factors that come into play when determining the cause of a car accident. Speeding, reckless driving and alcohol/drugs play a heavy part in the frequency of car accidents. However, poor driving conditions, inexperience, distractions and even improper maintenance on a car can also result in car accidents.

Making an insurance claim may not be enough, especially if you have sustained serious and life changing injuries. At Bye, Goff and Rohde we have over 120 years experience helping those win personal injury lawsuits. We recently collected a 1.2 million settlement for someone in an automobile accident. We sit down with each client to discuss what has happened. We consult with experts in the field to determine your chances of winning a case and explain to you your legal options so that you fully understand what choices you have.

While the money will not be able to stop the pain you are in, it can help you work towards a speedy recovery and ensure that your financial future is secure for your family. Compensation can pay for damages such as:

• A loss of quality of life or a loss of companionship if the accident resulted in a fatality
• Emotional and psychological harm experienced
• A loss of income and projected income
• A loss of inheritance
• Medications, doctors visits and other medical bills
• Rehabilitation expenses
• Equipment for the home and/or car
