Waynesboro Car Accident Lawyer

Auto Collision Attorney Serving Waynesboro, Virginia

Although a car accident is over in moments, it can have long-term effects on your life. Along with your injuries and pain, you will likely suffer financial losses, emotional or mental anguish, and a diminished quality of life. You may qualify for compensation if someone else was responsible for causing your collision, but you might have to overcome multiple types of challenges to collect a reasonable payment.

The injuries you have suffered and your lack of legal knowledge may prevent you from effectively handling your claim, and mistakes could be costly. Many car accident victims choose to work with Whitlock Law, LLC to ensure that they can successfully recover compensation for their injuries. When other attorneys might not make much effort or be satisfied with mediocre results, you can rely on us to fight aggressively to protect your best interests. Contact us 24/7 to schedule your free consultation.

Causes of Waynesboro, VA Car Accidents

In legal matters, negligence involves the failure to act in the way that a reasonable person would behave, and it is the basis for most personal injury claims. Whether your injuries were sustained in a truck, car, motorcycle, pedestrian, or bicycle accident, someone's negligence was probably a contributing factor. Most collisions happen due to negligent driver errors, including:

Improper merging or passing
Tailgating
Failing to yield the right of way
Running stop signs or red lights
Speeding
Distracted driving
Failing to comply with school or construction zone restrictions
Intoxicated driving
Driving while fatigued

Other people, companies, organizations, or government entities could also be at fault. In many cases, an investigation must be conducted to understand why and how a collision happened, determine fault, and establish liability for paying damages to injury victims. Although you probably do not have the resources or experience necessary to perform a thorough investigation to make sure evidence is gathered and preserved, that is one of the tasks that Whitlock Law, LLC will undertake on your behalf.

Injuries and Losses in Auto Collisions

Your injuries might be minor, but they could be severe. Injuries frequently sustained in motor vehicle collisions include:

Soft tissue or organ damage
Cuts, scrapes, and bruises
Burns
Facial lacerations
Spinal cord injuries
Traumatic brain injuries
Whiplash
Concussions
Broken bones

Your injuries likely required medical treatment and have potentially caused you to experience severe, long-term consequences. For instance, you may be facing a new, accident-related disability that requires home and vehicle modifications and has caused you to suffer significant emotional distress.

Damages for personal injury claims are divided into specific categories of losses, and the term also refers to the money you could collect because of them. Economic damages may reimburse you for accident-related expenses, such as medical treatment costs, necessary medical equipment, vehicle or home modifications, and the income you lose while you are unable to work after your accident. Non-economic damages are subjective, and they could compensate you for:

Disability
Loss of the ability to enjoy life
Damage to personal relationships
PTSD, depression, and anxiety
Disfigurement
Other forms of pain and suffering

Generally speaking, the worse the impact on your quality of life, the higher your non-economic damages could be. You can trust Whitlock Law, LLC to accurately evaluate your damages and work diligently to help you obtain the highest possible amount.

Challenges in Car Accident Claims

Many concerns may arise during the process of filing a car accident claim that may directly impact the payout you could receive, such as:

Virginia's pure contributory negligence laws
Determining liability for multiple-vehicle or commercial vehicle collisions
Uninsured/underinsured or hit-and-run motorists
Insurance companies that actively attempt to deny your claim in bad faith

Whatever challenges you face with your claim, Whitlock Law, LLC will be by your side, offering the support and legal guidance you need for a successful resolution.
