Automobile Injuries

Being involved in a car accident can be a terrifying experience. Collecting your thoughts might seem next to impossible at a time like this, but it’s important that you take a breath and focus on locking in the details, because you will need to recall them later.

It is vital to speak with a qualified Alabama accident attorney as soon as possible after any injuries are sustained. In many cases, there is critical evidence to be gathered the hours or days following the accident which could be lost forever if not collected and preserved immediately.

Automotive crashes may involve multiple vehicles, a single vehicle, a motorcycle, RV, a large transit vehicle or a tractor trailer, or even farm equipment, and could be caused by a product defect, driver negligence, or even malicious intent. The injuries sustained can change your life forever, or end it in an instant and through no fault of your own.

Automobile accidents can be caused in a number of ways, including but not limited to vehicle impact from the front, side swipes or side impact (also referred to as being “T-boned”), or rear damage from being rear ended or sandwiched between two or more vehicles. In some cases, vehicle rollover can also happen, and often has devastating results.

Single vehicle accidents should not be disregarded or chalked up to “just an accident.” Many are even caused by a manufacturer design defect or mechanical problem. Single vehicle accidents resulting in significant injury should be thoroughly investigated, especially if the injury appears to be disproportionate to the damage to the vehicle.

Most people are familiar with the idea that the automobile accident is the other driver’s fault. The other driver’s fault or negligence may appear in many different forms, such as drowsy driving, distracted driving, driving while using controlled substances, whether prescribed or not, texting and driving, drunk driving / DUI, speeding, driving erratically, and others.

Still other automobile injuries can be attributed to the neglect of others, such as dram shop cases which may hold the owner of a drinking establishment liable for over serving a patron, who thereafter injures someone behind the wheel.
