Motor Vehicle Accidents
Have you been injured in a car accident? You may be seeking answers to your legal questions and compensation for your damages. Call the Seattle car accident lawyer at The Farber Law Group today. Herb Farber has over 30 years of experience representing car accident victims in a wide range of claims and will work to overcome all obstacles to obtain compensation for you. As car accidents are the leading cause of premature death in Washington and the leading cause of accidental injury, we represent all types of Washington auto accident claims including:
Because car accidents occur so frequently, there are laws governing car insurance, and all drivers in Washington are required to purchase automobile insurance. If you or a loved one has been injured in a motor vehicle accident caused by the negligence of another driver, there should be insurance money that should compensate you for your damages including medical costs, loss of wages, and pain and suffering. If your accident was caused by a hit-and-run driver or by an underinsured driver, your own car insurance should cover the costs of your injuries. However, because of the for-profit nature of insurance companies, many insurance companies do not want to cover a person to the full extent of their damages. In this case, you may need the help of a Washington car accident attorney to help you obtain compensation for your damages.
We Recommend You Seek Free Legal Advice before Speaking with an Insurance Company
If you were injured in a car accident caused by another driver, you may be contacted by that person's car insurance company. We recommend that you do not speak to the insurance company or give a statement about your accident (Read Do I talk to a claims adjuster?). The insurance company will be attempting to minimize their liability and if you are recovering from the trauma of an accident, you may inadvertently give information that may be harmful to your case. Herb Farber recommends that you speak with a Seattle car accident attorney who is experienced in dealing with car insurance companies and who can help you maximize your settlement.
Car Accident Injuries
People are often seriously injured in motor vehicle accidents and their injuries
include broken limbs, traumatic brain injury (TBI), spinal cord injury, and whiplash. Even low-speed or “fender bender” accidents can result in serious injuries. While low-speed rear-end accidents don’t often result in serious lacerations or broken bones, they often involve injury to the soft tissues resulting in an injury often described as “whiplash”. A soft tissue injury can include injury to the tendons, muscles, and tissues within the spinal column. These injuries sometimes do not present until a few days after the car accident. Proving this type of injury was caused by an auto accident is sometimes difficult but an experienced personal injury attorney is familiar with this type of injury and the pain and suffering it can cause and methods for proving your claim. Other types of car accidents that often lead to injury are crossover accidents, failure-to-yield accidents, and accidents caused by drunk drivers.
