Cohen & Cohen – A Car Accident Lawyer VA Relies On

It can be difficult to find a car accident lawyer VA residents know and trust when confronted with seemingly endless options.

While no one can say that they are the best auto accident lawyer Northern VA has to offer, the legal team at Cohen & Cohen is proud to be a local firm that is widely-known for providing an invaluable service to the area. Our team of legal professionals has counseled numerous drivers, passengers, and pedestrians who have been involved in car accidents in the NoVA area.

The Categories/Causes

On the busy streets of Northern VA, car accidents can happen as a result of many different situations. When you need a car accident law Firm Virginia residents rely on, it’s important to find a lawyer who is familiar with different types of car accidents and the categorization of these accidents, including:

Head-on (frontal) accidents
Rear-end accidents
Side-swiping collisions
T-bone accidents
Traffic light and intersection collisions
Commercial truck accidents
Motorcycle accidents

At Cohen & Cohen, we are fully staffed with the the kind of car accident lawyer VA clients can believe in to properly represent them if they’ve been a victim of someone else’s negligence in any one of the above scenarios. Negligence often presents itself in a few different ways:

Drunk driving
Driving under the influence of illicit substances
Distracted driving
Using a cellphone or other mobile device while driving
Speeding
Reckless driving, especially in bad weather conditions
Running red lights and stop signs
Failing to see pedestrians and bicyclists
Road rage

The Statistics

Data from the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) shows that car accident fatalities have decreased over the past decade. This can be attributed to many positive variables, including improved education and heightened automobile manufacturing safety standards. Nevertheless, as any good car accident lawyer VA can offer will attest, serious auto accidents are still very common. The following NHTSA statistics from 2014 lays out the stats:

There were around six million reported vehicle crashes in the U.S. during 2014. Because these statistics cannot represent all of the crashes that were unreported to local authorities, it’s likely that the number of car accidents during any given year are much higher.
At least 2.33 million individuals were injured because of a car accident in 2014, according to police records.
There were 32,675 deaths in the U.S. in 2014 resulting from car accidents. This translates to one fatality every 16 minutes on U.S. roads, or about 90 fatalities every single day.
Car accidents in the U.S. during 2010 cost American citizens an estimated $242 billion. This takes into account many different financial factors, such as the loss of property, medical costs, road congestion after an accident, lost wages, and lost productivity in the workplace.
When factoring in the overall societal costs of losing so many valuable individuals, economists say that the true cost of car accidents is much higher: NHTSA data suggests this cost is around $836 billion in the U.S. every year.
30% of all fatal vehicle accidents in the U.S. are alcohol-related. In 2014, this meant there was one alcohol-related car accident fatality every 53 minutes.

The Consequences

For car accident victims, the consequences of someone else’s mistake on the road can be severe. The economic cost of car accidents in the U.S. is astonishingly high, as shown in the statistics above. On a personal level, the true costs of being a car accident victim are difficult to measure. A car accident lawyer VA residents trust may be able to help recuperate some of those losses in a variety of ways.

Compensation for Medical Costs: Car accident injuries can range from minor injuries to severe, permanent, and life-threatening. For individuals who have sustained injuries after an accident, there are many costs that can justify seeking financial compensation through a verdict or settlement. Emergency medical bills alone can be incredibly high. The addition of follow-up medical care can be simply devastating.
Compensation for Lost Wages: Loss of wages can cause added stress to a victim unable to work due to their injuries. For those who sustain permanent and disabling injuries, it might not be possible to return to the same job — or to any job at all. At Cohen & Cohen, we understand that disability can not only be detrimental to your financial well being, but emotional health as well.
Compensation for Property Damage: Beyond negotiating injury settlements, an experienced car accident lawyer VA can offer may also provide assistance for individuals who are facing property damage. Even though insurance companies provide financial coverage for damaged property, it’s far too common for these companies to downplay the severity of the damage or to deny responsibility altogether.

The Solution: Cohen & Cohen

It’s easy enough to log online and Google “car accident lawyer VA,” but there’s no guarantee that you’ll find the law firm that’s right for you. Our team at Cohen & Cohen works tirelessly to fight for the compensation our clients deserve. Our experience and knowhow in many realms of car accident practice makes us a well-versed and empathetic candidate for your compensation litigation needs.

  To say that I am happy with the outcome of my case is the understatement of the century! Jill Stanley is a BEAST at what she does.  That is the only way to explain it. She takes no prisoners. She and her team are very skilled and knowledgeable.  I am so happy I trusted them to do their job and rolled with Jill's suggestions. I would choose Jill again 100 times. She settled my case for more than I imagined I would receive. I was literally in tears. It is the best feeling to know my pain isn't for naught. Wayne Cohen and Kristopher Yorke were nothing short of amazing. They have the patience of saints. I'm 100% certain that I got on their last nerves with my frustration and tears at every other call I had with them. Being in pain and wanting to just be able to heal was all I could focus on, but they helped me realize that I also had to focus on the bigger picture (the case) so I could put this piece behind me. As a high-strung individual with anxiety, it was hard for me to not worry and let them do their jobs, but they reassured me all of the time that they had this. To be injured before the start of the pandemic and have to receive regular, weekly treatment while others are able to stay home is anxiety inducing. I was in pain, I was anxious, and I was just hoping it all worked out. It more than worked out.  I hope Jill, Siri, and Kris know how much their hard work and "hanging in there" meant to me. I am eternally grateful. I can't recommend you all enough. If you choose this law firm, you won't be sorry!

  I had a great experience with the team at Cohen & Cohen. From my intake attorney, Adam, to the paralegal, Bryan, who worked with me regularly for months to document and prepare my case, to Jill, the attorney who secured my settlement, I feel fortunate to have had their representation and expertise on my side.
