Motor Vehicle Accidents

If you believe you have suffered personal injuries due to the actions of another driver, we will be happy to discuss this with you.  Please call us for an appointment.  It would be appreciated if you would fill in the “Initial Interview Form” attached and bring it with you to the meeting.  Please also bring with you your driver’s license, registration card, insurance declarations page and all information obtained at the scene of the accident.

As a person harmed by the negligence of another driver, you may be entitled to damages for loss of wages, lost earning capacity, scarring and disfigurement, loss of the pleasures and enjoyment of life, past and future medical costs, and past and future pain and suffering.

In order to recover these damages, you must prove three things:

  1. That the driver of the other vehicle acted negligently;
  2. That the negligence caused damage; and,
  3. That you have suffered personal injury and/or other damages.
