AUTO ACCIDENTS

We have handled hundreds and hundreds of automobile accidents.

We have handled virtually every type of vehicle accident-from single-car crashes to complex, multi-vehicle accidents. We have won major awards for our clients in car, truck, bus, bicycle, motorcycle and train accidents.

• In one case, a very nice woman received $2 million from a car crash that broke her legs. She was forced to drive across the centerline to avoid the oncoming car that had swerved into her lane. That careless driver later said he was trying "to avoid a bunny rabbit" and then he drove away. Our client avoided that car, but then hit another oncoming car head on. At first, everyone thought it was her fault for being in the wrong lane but computer-assisted accident reconstruction proved she had no other choice. The driver who caused her crash was proven to be liable.
  
• We represented the family of a 19 year old college freshman whom died as a result of a catastrophic automobile accident. The case was arbitrated and we received a seven figure award.
  
• We represented the family of a woman who died by electrocution after a bus knocked down a power line.
  
• We have handled cases against major automobile manufacturers like General Motors and Chrysler for defective products in their cars that caused serious injury or death. Other cases have involved severe injury from wheel and tire products, including Firestone and Goodyear. We handled a Jeep rollover case that killed a wonderful wife and mother of five.
  
• We have handled many unusual auto accidents. In one case, a woman insisted to the police officer at a collision scene that her traffic light was "blue." In another, the defendant, whose license plate read "Speedi," told the officer she always observed posted speed limits.
  
• We have represented children and adults on bicycles who were the victims of negligence from another driver.
  

Even where the other driver has no insurance or little insurance, we still have been able to obtain a good recovery.

The key to a good result in an automobile case is very often fast investigation. We are ready to act at any time.
