Things You Need to Do After a Linthicum Heights, MD Motor Vehicle Collision

Multiple issues will require your attention after a car accident, such as:

• Doctor appointments, hospital stays, or surgeries

• Reporting your collision to your auto insurance provider
• Getting quotes to repair your vehicle, then arranging for service

Consult our "What To Do After a Car Accident" page for further details. When you call Whitlock Law, LLC for your free consultation, we can give you more advice tailored to your unique circumstances.

You will also need to identify the party responsible for your crash and file a claim against their policy for compensation. You cannot just blame someone without evidence that supports your claim. Often, an investigation is needed to discover why and how your accident happened and who was to blame. Most victims cannot investigate their collisions on their own, but Whitlock Law, LLC can help you make sure evidence demonstrating fault for your accident is gathered and preserved.

Car Accident Causes, Injuries, Damages, and Challenges

Many factors are involved in auto collisions. When negligent behavior is a contributing factor, you may qualify for compensation. Forms of negligence that often lead to crashes include:

• Speeding or driving too fast for conditions
• Distracted driving
• Fatigue, drugs, or alcohol
• Disregarding traffic laws
• Running red lights
• Improper merging
• Judgment errors

Some crashes have multiple contributing factors. In Maryland, you cannot recover compensation from other at-fault parties if you are partially responsible for your accident. Do not guess whether you are eligible; call Whitlock Law, LLC so we can assess your situation and explain your available options.

Various injuries are common in car crashes, such as:

• Broken bones
• Spinal cord damage, including paralysis
• Head, facial, and brain injuries
• Whiplash and concussions
• Organ and soft tissue damage
• Airbag and seat belt injuries

These and other physical injuries often cause significant expenses, and they can lead to mental and emotional trauma. You will probably need time away from work, possibly causing financial strain. Damages in personal injury claims refer to specific accident-related losses and the compensation or reimbursement you could receive for them.

We cannot tell you what damages you qualify for or the amounts you may receive until we evaluate your situation. However, many injured car accident victims receive compensation for:

• Medical and ongoing care costs
• Property damage
• Lost income
• Pain and suffering
• Diminished quality of life

We know how to calculate damages accurately, and we will fight aggressively to help you get the full amount you are due. Unfortunately, that is often easier said than done. Car crash claims have several potential complications, including:

• Determining liability in multiple-vehicle or commercial vehicle collisions
• Identifying hit-and-run drivers
• Dealing with uninsured/underinsured motorists
• Insurance company tactics designed to devalue your claim
• Government agency involvement
• Being incorrectly blamed for causing your crash

When you choose Whitlock Law, LLC, we will help you overcome these and other challenges.
