Houston Personal Injury Lawyer
Every time a driver gets behind the wheel of a motor vehicle, he or she is accepting responsibility for the safety of everyone else on the road. Accidents can and do happen. According to the latest statistics from the Illinois Department of Transportation, in 2012 there were 886 people killed in Illinois car accidents, and over 60,000 people were injured. When a driver's negligent behaviors or careless actions lead to the serious injury or death of another person, the negligent driver must be held accountable.
No one enjoys going through the process of getting into a car accident, having to go to the hospital and then having to file a lawsuit. It is very important to understand that you are not always taking money from the individual or company that was negligent in the car or truck accident. The money will often be paid out by the insurance company. This is a very common misconception. Most people may reconsider suing because they don't want the person that hit them to go broke or bankrupt. This is not exactly how the process works.Thank you for finally bringing to light one of the great ongoing injustices in America. I am a solo attorney who handles these small accident cases. I have seen these abusive tactics used for years by the big auto insurance companies. I have handled over a thousand of these cases in the 15 years I have been in practice. At the beginning, it often was possible to get a reasonable settlement, but then came the Big Lie tactic: you cannot be hurt in a small property damage crash. I hope you continue to shed light on this corrupt practice which affects millions of Americans every year.
