Automobile and Motorcycle Accidents

We spend many hours each week in our cars, and depend on the care and responsibility of the other drivers on the road for our safety. Drivers have a responsibility to act safely, and when they don’t, they put other people’s lives at risk. Each year, thousands of people are injured or killed through no fault of their own. Another person’s negligent driving can cause you or your loved ones to suffer untold devastation, including brain and spinal cord injuries that can last a lifetime.

Our system of law recognizes these risks and requires all drivers to have insurance. Victims may be entitled to receive compensation from an individual’s insurance company for losses caused during an accident. However, insurance companies are in business to make money and will either try to convince you that the accident was your fault, or will try to settle your case for far less than it is worth. That is why you need an experienced attorney working for you.

In addition, automobile accidents involve circumstances that can be changed, so that evidence that is not preserved can disappear forever. Cars are repaired, debris is cleaned up, and skid marks get washed away. It is essential that you contact an attorney as quickly as possible to preserve all evidence needed for accident reconstruction so that you will be compensated for any injuries you receive.

At the Law Office of Scot Candell, we take all automobile accident cases on a contingency fee basis so you pay nothing unless we recover money for you. Call us today to see if we can help you.
