As the largest city in Maryland, Baltimore is also one of the most populous U.S. cities. With residents, commuters, tourists, and those just passing through, Baltimore also sees a significant number of car accidents. These collisions can cause extensive injuries that may be accompanied by significant pain, devastating property damage, and emotional and mental anguish. When someone’s negligence causes a crash, they need to be held accountable for the harm they brought about.

You can hold at-fault parties accountable by filing a personal injury claim for compensation. However, you may encounter various obstacles that stand between you and obtaining a reasonable amount.

Negligence and Fault in Baltimore, MD Car Accidents

In legal matters, negligence means failing to behave like a reasonable person would under identical circumstances. Negligent behavior can be an action or failure to act. When driving, negligent behaviors include:

Failing to check blind spots before merging or switching lanes
Tailgating
Not coming to a complete stop at red lights or stop signs
Speeding or driving too fast in certain conditions
Distracted driving
Not following traffic laws
Aggressive or reckless driving
Failing to reduce speed in school zones or construction zones
Drowsy driving
Refusing to yield the right of way

A reasonable person understands that these and other negligent behaviors increase the likelihood of causing a collision that could injure or kill someone. Negligent driver errors contribute to 94 percent of traffic collisions, meaning most of these situations should have been avoidable.

When someone’s negligence leads to a crash, they are at fault. In these cases, fault means responsibility for causing the crash and injuring others. Fault can also make that party liable for paying your damages.

In Maryland, you cannot obtain payment for your damages if you share fault for causing your car accident. Consulting with Whitlock Law, LLC is the best way to determine your eligibility.

Baltimore, Maryland Auto Collision Injuries and Damages

Injuries sustained in motor vehicle crashes can range from minor to catastrophic, and they frequently include soft tissue or organ damage, head and brain injuries, burns, broken bones, concussions, whiplash, spinal cord damage, and airbag or seat belt injuries. The costs of the medical treatment you require can create a significant financial burden. You may also experience various intangible losses as a direct result of your accident and injuries, such as pain and suffering.

Your damages could include economic damages that reimburse you for accident-related expenses and non-economic damages to compensate you for the ways your injuries have diminished your quality of life. While economic damages are tied to your exact expenses, non-economic damages reflect how severely your intangible losses have affected you and your loved ones.

Although you may qualify to receive damages, that does not mean insurers will pay you fairly without a fight. They do not like paying claims, and they may try to undermine yours to reduce or eliminate your payout. When you partner with Whitlock Law, LLC, we will not let insurance companies take advantage of you. We will force them to route all communications through our office, negotiate to reach a favorable settlement amount, and take your case to trial if they refuse to negotiate.
