Recovering Damages After an Auto Accident

Avoid being taken advantage of by insurance companies by calling an auto accident lawyer Northern Virginia residents know and respect. Damages for automobile accidents can include property loss, medical costs and lost wages. When trying to recover these damages, you will almost always be dealing with an insurance company.

Without a car accident attorney, the settlement process proceeds completely on the adjuster’s terms. This scenario will never yield the best possible result for you. Your attorney’s job is to level the playing field. Their main goal is to settle your claim to maximize your compensation.

Common Causes Of Car Crashes

Your Northern Virginia car accident lawyer can help you secure some much-needed financial compensation after your crash. At Cohen & Cohen, we’ve been helping car crash survivors for 25 years, and we’re ready to use our experience to help you. Read on to see the common causes of car accidents – and contact us today to get started.

Distractions Behind The Wheel

Distracted driving remains one of the top reasons for car accidents across the country. This involves any activity that diverts attention from driving, including talking or texting on your phone, eating and drinking, talking to people in your vehicle, or fiddling with the stereo, entertainment, or navigation system. Anything that takes a driver’s attention off the road can lead to a crash.

Speeding

Driving above the speed limit is another leading cause of accidents that result in injuries and fatalities. Speeding reduces a driver’s ability to steer safely around curves or objects in the roadway, extends the distance necessary to stop a vehicle, and increases the distance a vehicle travels while the driver reacts to a dangerous situation.

Driving Under The Influence

Alcohol and drugs impair cognitive functions, coordination, and reaction times. Driving under the influence of any intoxicant is illegal and significantly increases the likelihood of accidents that result in injury or death.

Reckless Driving

Reckless driving includes changing lanes too quickly, aggressive driving behaviors such as tailgating and ignoring traffic signals, and failing to observe the rights of other road users. This disregard for road safety can lead to dangerous situations that might result in severe accidents.

Poor Weather Conditions

Bad weather conditions such as rain, snow, fog, and ice drastically affect driving safety. Slippery roads reduce tire traction and can cause drivers to lose control, while fog and heavy rain can severely impair visibility. Understanding how to navigate these conditions safely is vital, though the safest measure is often to avoid driving until conditions improve.

Driver Fatigue

Fatigue can reduce awareness and reaction time, impair judgment, and increase the risk of accidents. Driver fatigue is particularly a concern in professions requiring long driving hours, such as truck and bus driving. However, it can affect any driver who does not get sufficient rest.

Vehicle Defects

Sometimes accidents are caused not by the driver’s actions but by vehicle malfunctions. This can include brake failures, tire blowouts, steering and suspension failures, and other critical vehicle malfunctions. A Fairfax, VA car accident lawyer can help you investigate and determine whether a manufacturer can be held responsible for your injuries.

Legal Support After A Car Crash

At Cohen & Cohen, we understand the devastating impact a car crash can have on an individual and their family. Accidents bring about a host of challenges, from physical injuries and emotional trauma to financial difficulties due to medical bills and lost wages.

  I am very satisfied with the services provided by Cohen and Cohen. They were able to settle my case within less than a year and settled a fair amount in which I was expecting. They communicated very well throughout the process as well as made sure all boxes were checked off to ensure i received the best care and communication. I will recommend the services to anyone in these situations. Riley and Brittney were certainly very helpful during the process.

  Lucas Baudry was my rep for this accident claim, and even though I had LOADS of questions and was a bit impatient, he was always responsive and quick to reply. We’re wrapping up now, and I really feel like he tried to have the best results in the end, and didn’t drag it out more than need be.
