Car Accident Injuries and Damages

Physical injuries resulting from motor vehicle accidents range from mild cuts and scrapes to significant bodily harm. Motor vehicle accident victims commonly suffer from broken or fractured bones, muscle sprains and strains, nerve damage, spinal cord injuries, paralysis, eye injuries, concussions, loss of limbs, internal bleeding and other traumatic brain injuries.

Car accident victims may be faced with high medical bills including the costs of past and future medical treatment, prescriptions, rehabilitation and physical therapy, as well as lost wages, diminished earning capacity and costs related to physical damage to their vehicle.

Medical treatment for car accident injuries may be necessary for years following the accident. Car accident victims, with the help of a New Jersey car accident attorney may also recover for their emotional distress and pain and suffering under certain circumstances.  In wrongful death cases, the surviving family members may also be entitled to compensation for the costs of funeral expenses.

Obtaining Car Accident Injury Compensation

Car accident victims seeking to obtain compensation for their injuries may file personal injury lawsuits against several potentially responsible parties including the driver, auto manufacturers and designers, road designers, road maintenance companies and even government entities. When the carelessness or recklessness of any of these parties leads to a motor vehicle accident, a claim for negligence exists.

Car accident victims should always consult an experienced car accident lawyer in New Jersey prior to resolving any claim with insurance companies or other drivers.  Insurance companies have legal teams working on their behalf and so should you.  Time is of the essence in dealing with automobile accident claims. New Jersey law requires that injured individuals file their claims against responsible parties within a certain period of time.  This is known as the statute of limitations.  Failure to do so may result in an injured person’s forfeiture of their rights.

Pictures from the automobile accident scene, witness information and police reports are other important forms of evidence in motor vehicle accident lawsuits.  It is also important for injured individuals to keep detail records of all medical treatment received as a result of the accident and a log of all conversations held with insurance companies and other potentially responsible parties. This information is critical to the success of your car accident lawsuit.
