What Are Your Legal Options After An Accident That Leads To A Personal Injury?

Having a team of skilled personal injury lawyers on your side is one of the most important things you can do after a car accident or any other type of personal injury accident. You may not know what legal options are available to you, but it is vital that you speak with someone knowledgeable who will be able to help guide you through this difficult time.   

If the incident was due to negligence from another party – such as a driver violating traffic laws or failing to stop at a red light – they should be held liable for injuries sustained in the crash. However, there are times when even if one person is negligent, another person might also share some form of responsibility. Everyone involved could need representation during negotiations and trial proceedings in these cases.

What is The Best Way To Initiate A Personal Injury Lawsuit?

When it comes to initiating a personal injury lawsuit, there are a few things to keep in mind: 

  • You only have a certain amount of time to file a claim (typically two years after the accident). 
  • You will need to provide evidence of your injuries and how they were caused. 
  • You may be required to go through mediation or arbitration before taking the case to court. 

Your Cantor Grana Buckner Bucci lawyer will be able to help you understand this process before making any decisions. If this is your first time dealing with an injury, don’t hesitate to contact us for more information. 

How Much Money Will I Receive From My Richmond Personal Injury Lawsuit?

You may get compensated for lost wages, medical bills, pain and suffering, or other financial compensation from costs associated with your accident. Your personal injury settlement will depend on the factors of your unique case.

How Do I Know Who’s Responsible For The Accident That Led To My Injury?

If you’ve been injured in an accident, it’s essential to know who is responsible for the damages that have occurred. During this time, do not to discuss your personal details with anyone – including insurance agents or other parties involved in the case. 

Your attorney will be able to help make sense of everything and determine which party was liable for what happened during the accident. In some cases, both parties may share at least a portion of fault; however, one person can typically be held more accountable than another if they were acting negligently when the crash occurred (i.e., speeding while driving). Situations like this are where aggressive legal representation is critical. 

Can I File A Personal Injury Claim If The Other Party Wasn’t At Fault?

Yes, you can file a personal injury claim even if the other party wasn’t at fault – however, it’s essential to have evidence to support your case. This evidence may include witness testimonies, police reports, or photos from the accident scene. 

Can I File A Personal Injury Claim Even If I Was Partially Responsible For The Accident?

Yes, you can file a personal injury claim even if you were partially responsible for the accident; however, it’s important to remember that, in Virginia, you may share at least some of the blame for what happened. Our attorneys will work with you to build a compelling case and help you receive the maximum compensation. 

Can a Lawyer Help Me Deal With The Insurance Company After An Accident?

After sustaining injuries in an accident, the last thing you want to deal with is the insurance company. Unfortunately, dealing with them might be unavoidable if your injuries prevent you from working; however, it can help speed up the process of receiving compensation for your damages. 

Try not to make any statements without first consulting a personal injury lawyer. Insurance companies can use what you say against you to disprove your claims and decrease the amount of compensation you receive.

An experienced personal injury lawyer will know what information should and should not be shared. If there are key facts that need to be stated or evidence that needs to be provided, then, speak up. Otherwise, let your legal professional handle everything until your case has concluded.  

As stated earlier, there is a high likelihood the insurance company involved in your case will deny your claim. If that happens, there’s a chance your case may have to go to trial. If you hire Cantor Grana Buckner Bucci, you need not worry. We’ve fought – and defeated – insurance companies for years in court. Our personal injury attorneys have the skills and resources to do the same for you if a trial is necessary.

How Long Does It Take To Settle An Insurance Claim?

The time required to settle an insurance claim can vary depending on many factors, including the severity of your injuries and how cooperative both parties are throughout the process. Some wrongful death cases have also seen disputes between family members if there is no clear beneficiary; however, these issues typically resolve themselves.
