FIRM PERSONAL INJURY
PRACTICE FOCUS:
Vehicle Accidents
Legal claims that arise from vehicle
accidents are typically governed by the law of negligence.
Any individual who negligently operates a motor vehicle may
be required to pay damages to an injured victim. A personal
injury case involving a vehicle accident may become
formalized through civil court proceedings or may be
resolved through an informal settlement before a lawsuit is
filed. Vehicle accidents can include:
- Admiralty and maritime law
- ATV accidents
- Automobile accidents
- Aviation accidents
- Bicycle accidents
- Boating accidents
- Commercial bus accidents
- Cruise ship accidents
- Intersection accidents
- Motorcycle accidents
- Pedestrian accidents
- Rear end collisions
- Semi-tractor trailer accidents
- School bus accidents
- SUV rollover accidents
- Train accidents
- Truck accidents
- Yacht accidents
The surviving family members of a
fatally injured accident victim may be able to bring
wrongful death charges against the defendant.
Automobile Accidents
A car accident is a collision
involving an automobile and anything that causes damage to
the automobile, including other automobiles, telephone
poles, buildings and trees. Sometimes a car accident may
also refer to an automobile striking a human or animal. Car
accidents — also called traffic collisions, auto accidents,
road accidents, personal injury collisions, motor vehicle
accidents and crashes — kill an estimated 1.2 million people
worldwide each year, and injure about forty times this
number.
Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcycle riders are often exposed to
dangers not met by automobile drivers and other motorists on
the road. The lack of any substantial protective barriers,
as well as the difficulty that other motorists may have in
seeing or stopping for a motorcycle, leaves riders prone to
serious personal injury in the event of an accident.
Wrongful Death
A wrongful death occurs when a person
is killed due to the negligence or misconduct of another
individual, company or organization. A legal action for
wrongful death belongs to the decedent's immediate family
members, usually a surviving spouse and children, and
sometimes parents. Under certain circumstances, unrelated
minor children living with and supported by the decedent may
also bring a claim for wrongful death. In order to bring a
successful wrongful death cause of action, the following
elements must be present:
- The death of a human being caused
by another's negligent or intentional conduct.
- The survival of family members
who are suffering the loss of financial support, love,
care, comfort, supervision, guidance, household
assistance and general society previously provided by
the deceased.
The general rule in wrongful death
cases is that one is entitled to recover both economic and
non-economic damages which are suffered as a result of the
loss of a loved one. Economic damages in a wrongful death
case include an award for the financial contributions which
the decedent would have made to his or her spouse, children
and/or parents had he or she survived. It also includes the
recovery for funeral service expenses in memory of the
decedent and for burial cost. Non-economic damages include
loss of love, society, companionship, comfort, affection,
solace or moral support.
