How did your rear-end car accident happen?
Rear-end car accidents caused by other drivers happen for many different reasons. Some of the most common causes of rear-end car accidents we deal with at our law firm include:
- Distracted drivers (including texting drivers)
- Speeding drivers
- Drunk drivers
- Tailgating drivers
- Drivers who fall asleep at the wheel
Is this how your rear-end car accident happened in Delaware? Or did the other driver do something else to cause your crash? Whatever the circumstances, we’re here to help you hold the driver accountable for his or her actions.
What are common rear-end accident injuries?
Rear-end crashes often cause certain types of severe, painful injuries due to the violent forward and backward motion of many rear-end collisions. When these accidents occur, drivers and passengers often suffer a wide range of injuries, including:
- Whiplash, a type of neck injury
- Head injuries, including traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
- Back injuries, including spinal cord injuries
- Broken bones, including skull fractures
- Arm and hand injuries
- Leg and foot injuries
- Chronic pain, which can last weeks or months or longer
Whatever type of rear-end accident injury you’re dealing with, make sure you get the medical care you need right away after your accident. Then talk to a rear-end injury lawyer at our Delaware law firm. We’re here to help.
What types of compensation are available for rear-end injury victims?
If another driver caused your rear-end crash, you should be compensated for all your financial losses. This includes compensation for future anticipated losses due to any long-term issues caused by your rear-end injury. This can include compensation for:
- Emergency medical care
- Future medical care
- Physical therapy
- Vehicle repairs
- Replacement income if you need time off to recover
- Lost future income if you cannot return to work
Other compensation might be available depending on the details of your Delaware rear-end accident. The bottom line is you should not have to pay for your financial losses if another driver caused your crash.
You have rights. We will stand up for them. Contact our law firm.
This might be your only opportunity for justice. If you don’t take legal action right away, you might have a hard time finding the facts you need to build a strong legal case. This is because the evidence you need can disappear or be destroyed over time.
The clock is running after your accident. By law, you only have two years from the date of your rear-end car accident to file a lawsuit in Delaware. This deadline (known as the statute of limitations) might seem like a long time, but the reality is that building strong, successful legal cases often takes time.
