Car Accident Attorneys in Sandusky

Able to Settle Claims or Litigate Trials

You are a careful driver and you assume that if you look after yourself and others on the road, others will do the same. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. Within moments, a collision can occur on the road and you may find yourself in the hospital having sustained a serious injury, all because another driver did not care about what was safe and responsible behind the wheel.

The injuries you sustain in a car crash may initially seem minor – like a soft tissue injury with no immediate complications – but such injuries may have long-lasting effects or could be the cause of a lifetime of chronic pain. Maybe your personal injury is serious – neck or back injury, spinal cord injury, or a traumatic brain injury (TBI). In either situation, what can you do to get help?

Is it Worth Hiring an Attorney for a Car Accident?

If you've been involved in a car accident, you may be wondering whether it's worth getting an attorney. The answer depends on the circumstances of your case.

If the accident was minor and there were no injuries, it may not be necessary to hire an attorney. In this case, you can typically work directly with the insurance companies to settle the claim. However, if there were injuries, even if they are “minor,” or significant damage to your vehicle, it's worth considering hiring an attorney.

If you've suffered serious injuries, such as a broken bone or head trauma, it's important to have an attorney on your side. They will help you receive compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

The legal processes surrounding a car accident are often complicated and complex. An attorney can help you navigate through those processes while advising you on your rights and options. Plus they can negotiate with insurance companies on your behalf and help ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.

Whether or not it's worth getting an attorney for a car accident depends on the specific circumstances of your case. If you've suffered injuries or damage, or if fault is disputed, it's usually a good idea to seek legal representation.

How Long Do I Have to File a Claim for Compensation?

Every state has a set time limit, or statute of limitations, in which they can file a claim for compensation after a vehicle accident. Injured individuals have just one year from the date of the accident or the date that injuries are recognized to file a personal injury lawsuit. These are statutes that exist to prevent litigation threats from occurring indefinitely.
