Lake Buena Vista Car Accident Attorney

December 15, 2017

Car accidents are commonplace and in Florida there are roughly over 600,000 car accidents every year according to Florida’s Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles website.  While car accidents happen every day, not all drivers successfully recover the financial compensation necessary to address their physical and emotional loss.  Every victim is different, and the facts and circumstances of each collision are different.  If you are the victim of careless or reckless driving, you may be unsure about how to proceed.  Bryan W. Crews, your Lake Buena Vista personal injury attorney, will evaluate the unique circumstances of your claim and advocate on your behalf.  Car accidents and injuries are on the rise.  Do not hesitate to contact the competent staff at the law offices of Bryan W. Crews.

If you have been contacted by an insurance company, proceed with caution.  Insurance companies often look out for their own best interest and their offer may not fully compensate for your medical needs or the emotional toll of your accident.  A life changing event such as a car accident in Lake Buena Vista can be traumatic, and perhaps overwhelming.  Let the experts at Bryan W. Crews, your Lake Buena Vista personal injury attorney, handle your claim.

The impact of a car accident can be far reaching.  Aside from your immediate medical needs, you may require ongoing physical therapy or other long term medical treatment.  Some injuries require multiple procedures.  Not all drivers carry policy limits that will fully compensate you for your injuries.  This may require recovering directly from the driver in their personal capacity.  If you are not able to reach settlement that reflects the full extent of your damages, pursuing justice through the courts may be your only avenue to compensation.  An experienced Lake Buena Vista attorney can help you work through the legal complexities of litigation.

Remember that the insurance adjustor works for the insurance company.  Resist giving a recorded statement to the at-fault party’s insurance company, no matter how much pressure they apply.  Contact your Lake Buena Vista attorneys at the law offices of Bryan W. Crews.  All communication should take place in writing.  Do not sign any authorizations that allow the insurance company to seek your medical records.  And most importantly, do not sign any settlement agreements until the competent Lake Buena Vista attorneys have had a chance to revise them accordingly.  Insurance adjustors are not your friends, and they do not work on your behalf.  Some insurance adjustors are compensated through bonuses or have other incentives to settle your case for the lowest possible amount.

Car accidents can result in any number of injuries including catastrophic injuries, loss of mobility, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injury, and whiplash.  Common causes of car accidents include distracted driving, intoxicated drivers, head on collisions, fender benders, speeding, pulling out in front of your vehicle, or stopping too abruptly.   Some accidents may be caused by negligent construction vehicles on the highway.  Whatever the cause, the Lake Buena Vista lawyers at Bryan W. Crews have experience handling car accident cases.

Florida is a no-fault state.  This means that injured drivers utilize their own policy first up to $10,000.  Recovery beyond that is obtained through the at fault driver’s insurance.  In order to hold the at fault driver liable, you must prove that they were driving negligently.  Negligence is a legal standard.  To prove negligence, you must show that the driver owed you a duty of care that he breached, the breach of this duty caused your accident, and you have suffered damages as a consequence.  This legal formula is used to assign fault in car accident case in Lake Buena Vista, and all jurisdictions.
