Auburn Car Accident Lawyer

Driving on any road or highway is a risky proposition. A single moment in time is all it takes for another person’s poor choices to result in your serious injuries. Even though local laws assert that drivers have a duty to protect all others while they are behind the wheel, careless and even outright illegal driving remains common. If someone else’s reckless driving resulted in your injury, you may have a right to seek monetary damages for your losses.

An Auburn car accident lawyer wants to help you to collect these payments. From day one, our team of committed personal injury attorneys are prepared to investigate the cause of a crash and its impact on your life. They can use evidence of another driver’s fault to obtain the fair amount of compensation you deserve.

Why Are Car Accidents so Common?

Many of the factors that make car accidents so common can also help injured people prove that another was to blame for the incident. A collection of Washington state laws governs the safe operation of all motor vehicles. A failure to follow these rules of the road is one major contributor to the high frequency of car accidents. Incidents involving speeding, failures to yield, or texting while driving may all be the cause of a crash. When this is the case, an Auburn car accident attorney could work to determine if the issuance of a traffic ticket resulted in a conviction in traffic court. If so, this can be used as powerful evidence to prove fault in a related collision.

Other incidents are the product of simple carelessness. Having a conversation with a passenger, eating behind the wheel, or applying makeup while driving are all examples of the careless operation of a car. Even if this does not result in the issuance of a ticket, it may still be possible to prove fault for a car accident.

Courts in Auburn and elsewhere in the state of Washington use a concept called “comparative negligence” when evaluating accident cases. According to the Revised Code of Washington § 4.22.005, defendants can argue that an injured person’s own actions contributed to the accident and that the defendant should not be fully liable. Hiring a dedicated car crash lawyer to manage a case could help a plaintiff entirely avoid or fight back against these allegations.

Injured Individuals Deserve Full Compensation for their Losses

Every car wreck is unique and has the potential to impact a victim’s life in many ways. The goal of any insurance settlement or lawsuit is to collect the payments that are necessary to cover one’s losses and get their life back to normal, or as close to it as possible.

The three central sources of compensation following a crash are:

  • Medical costs: a demand for compensation must seek out the payments needed to cover the entirety of a person’s medical bills. This includes both past and future costs.
  • Lost wages: if a person missed time on the job to make a recovery or seek medical care, an at-fault driver and their insurance company must provide payments for all missing income.
  • Lost quality of life: some people may experience significant pain connected to a physical injury, while others might find that they are unable to ride in a car without anxiety attacks.

Contacting an Auburn car collision attorney today allows them to immediately get to work and pursue full financial restitution for one’s losses.
