As a general rule, if there are injuries involved, you will probably benefit from the representation of an auto accident lawyer. Contact our firm to talk to an attorney regarding the facts of your auto accident case and determine if you should take your next steps alone, or with the guidance of an experienced personal injury lawyer.

It is not uncommon for the other party’s insurance company to deny liability and even suggest that you were responsible. Our auto accident attorneys work with experienced investigators to determine who was responsible for your injuries and to what extent. The preservation of evidence and gathering of witness statements is vital to demonstrating the other party’s responsibility and recovering the maximum compensation for your injuries, or a family member’s wrongful death.
