Newport News Car Accident Lawyer

Newport News Car Accident Attorney

Trusted Lawyer Helping Car Accident Victims in Newport News, Virginia

Although a car accident is over in a matter of seconds, its effects can linger for much longer. Your injuries may require medical treatment and a prolonged recovery period, leaving you unable to work for a time. Your car probably needs to be repaired or replaced, and the emotional and mental toll can be traumatic. If someone else’s negligence caused the crash that injured you, they need to be held accountable.

You may qualify for compensation, but getting the amount you deserve is not always easy. Many injured victims turn to Whitlock Law, LLC for help because we are known as tenacious defenders of our clients' rights and best interests. We will do all we can to maximize your compensation. Get in touch with us today to learn more about the advantages of working with us.

Car Accident Damages

Although the harm you have suffered may be severe, physical injuries are probably not the only way your car crash has affected you. You may be able to recover compensation for the financial and intangible losses caused by your collision, such as:

Lost income
Property damage
Medical care costs
Loss of your ability to enjoy life
Pain and suffering

Although every victim’s damages are different, one fact remains consistent: the insurance company that should provide coverage will most likely try to minimize your payout. At Whitlock Law, LLC, we will not let them get away with this unethical behavior. We can help you overcome any challenges that may arise during your claims process.

Negligence in Motor Vehicle Collisions

Negligence, which may include any forms of careless behavior in which a person disregarded the safety of others, is the foundation for most personal injury claims. You will need to prove that another party’s negligence was the direct cause of your accident, injuries, and associated damages. Virginia law prevents you from recovering compensation if you bear any fault for your accident. Call Whitlock Law, LLC to verify your eligibility rather than mistakenly assuming that you do not qualify.

The driver who was at fault for the collision will most likely be liable for your damages. Driver errors that may indicate fault include:

Speeding
Distracted driving or inattention
Driving under the influence
Improper merging
Illegal passing
Refusing to yield the right of way

When negligence is responsible for causing a crash, the driver needs to be held accountable. However, others may also share fault, including cargo loaders who fail to balance or secure loads properly, mechanics who do not make necessary vehicle repairs, employers who provide unsafe vehicles or force drivers to meet unreasonable schedules, and government entities that fail to adequately maintain roadways.

Your lawyer from Whitlock Law, LLC will investigate your accident, gather evidence to prove fault and liability, and work to help you recover the compensation you deserve.
