Have a case?

Wilson Car Accident Lawyer

Being the victim of an auto accident could prove to be a stressful and tumultuous time in your life. In addition to the amount of medical bills you could be facing, you may also be burdened with the extensive healing process you must endure to overcome your injuries. Fortunately, with the help of a Wilson car accident lawyer, you may be able to craft a convincing case for compensation. An experienced attorney could work to investigate the accident and to gather evidence that points to the defendant as the sole responsible party. To get started on a case, schedule a free consultation today.

Determining Fault After a Car Accident

If a jury believes that a plaintiff is even one percent to blame for the accident after receiving evidence that a defendant presents, that court must negate the plaintiff’s award. With this in mind, it is essential for a plaintiff to present a thorough and powerful case demonstrating defendant negligence. Defendants may be found negligent for an auto wreck if they:

  • Ignore a rule of the road that leads to an accident, such as speeding, ignoring stop signs, or failing to yield
  • Text while driving
  • Drive while intoxicated or otherwise impaired
  • Fail to have proper safety equipment such as headlights

A Wilson car accident lawyer could help to gather the evidence needed to promote a case against a negligent defendant while warding off allegations of contributory negligence.

The Whitley Advantage isn’t just one thing – it’s everything.

Helping to Pursue Claims for Appropriate Compensation

When people imagine the available compensation following a car accident, many think that they can only recover payments for their medical costs. However, the true purpose of a car accident case is to make that plaintiff whole again. This means providing compensation for all their losses.

In addition, claims can demand payments for all financial losses. The most common of these are lost wages that a plaintiff suffers because of an inability to return to work. Claims can also demand payments for the emotional traumas connected to the incident. It is not uncommon for plaintiffs to suffer from nightmares, PTSD, flashbacks, and other mental health concerns following car crashes. A Wilson car accident lawyer could help people evaluate their losses and to demand appropriate payments from at-fault defendants.

A Wilson Car Accident Attorney May be Able to Help

If you have suffered damages as a result of an auto accident, you may be able to recover compensation. However, you bear the burden of not only proving that a defendant was at-fault for the collision, but also that you did not contribute to the accident in any way. This complex legal process can frustrate and confuse many unrepresented plaintiffs.

Thankfully, a Wilson car accident lawyer could provide essential help. They can stand by your side to gather the evidence needed to prove the defendant’s negligence. They can also help you to measure your losses to demand appropriate compensation in settlement talks. If this fails, they can take the necessary steps to file complaints in court to protect your legal rights. To get started on a case, be sure to schedule a free consultation today.
