- Motor vehicle accidents that leave passengers injured, including children

Your accident claim will be unique to your specific situation. While truck accident claims are among the most challenging, every claim requires skilled legal guidance to help protect the claimant’s rights and their rightful compensation.
The Basic Elements of Your Claim
The basic elements of your traffic accident claim include that the other driver engaged in some form of negligence that breached their responsibility to your safety. This negligence must have been the direct cause of the accident, and you must have suffered legal damages as a result.
Driver Negligence
Traffic crash claims generally hinge on proving the other motorist’s negligence, which can take all the following dangerous forms:
- Distraction
- Exhaustion
- Impairment
- Excess speed, which can relate to driving too fast in response to the road’s condition, or in response to the effects of bad weather or heavy traffic
- Aggression
- Failure to follow the rules of the road

- Property damage to your vehicle and its contents
- Medical expenses, which are likely to be ongoing if your injuries are serious
- Lost income, which may be complicated by lost earning potential
- Physical and emotional pain and suffering, which can make your other losses more challenging and can outpace them combined
