Auto Accident? Car Wreck? 18 Wheeler Accident? Dump Truck Accident? Bus Accident?

Thousands of motorists suffer severe injuries or deaths on Alabama roadways every year due to collisions with another motor vehicle. These collisions can include:


  • Car/automobile accidents
  • Eighteen wheeler or tractor-trailer accidents
  • Dump truck accidents
  • Bus accidents


Often, the cause of these injuries or deaths associated with these collisions is the negligence or recklessness of another motorist, such as:


  • Failure to obey traffic laws (speeding, traffic signals, etc.)
  • Driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol and/or drugs
  • Fatigue
  • Texting or talking on the phone while driving
  • Carelessness


Injuries arising from motor vehicle accidents include:


  • Head injuries
  • Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
  • Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
  • Amputation and loss of limb use
  • Pelvic injuries
  • Eye and Ear injuries
  • Burns
  • Broken bones and disfigurement


These injuries can have a devastating effect on a victim as well as a victim’s family, friends, and loved ones. Of the injuries described above, the victim will likely suffer intense pain and suffering. These injuries may also lead to long term physical and mental disabilities for the victim, resulting in life altering consequences for the victim, victim’s family, friends and loved ones. 

The financial burden associated with these will often weigh heavy on the victim and victim’s family as the costs associated with such injuries can be in the millions of dollars. Not only will the victim and victim’s family suffer the burden of paying medical expenses, they will likely incur future medical and long term care expenses. The victim will likely suffer lost wages as well. Any settlement of a claim for these injuries arising from a motor vehicle accident must take into account these issues, including compensation for pain and suffering.
