Steps To Take After a Car Accident

  • Obtain medical help right away.
  • Do not admit fault.
  • Do not talk to the other party’s insurance company. Have your lawyer do this.
  • Give your attorney any information you have from the accident scene.
  • Hire a competent personal injury lawyer as quickly as possible.
  • Report the accident to your insurer. Have your attorney advise you before making any recorded statement.

Hiring a Car Accident Lawyer

Employ an exceptional attorney as soon as you can after the accident. If you delay, evidence may be destroyed or misplaced, witnesses may move, and court deadlines may be missed.

The attorneys at The Reeves Law Group have long, successful experience handling car accident cases. Our lawyers are proud of their 98.7% success rate in personal injury cases.

What Can Be Recovered

The court has the ability to award damages to a person hurt in an auto accident. Damages are money paid to compensate the victim for losses caused by the accident. Damages are usually ordered to cover:

  • Medical Care
  • Physical and Mental Pain
  • Wages lost while injured
  • Reductions in future earning ability.

When an accident results in someone’s death, the victim’s family can sometimes file a wrongful death claim to recover for loss of the victim’s financial support, love, and companionship. The deceased person’s estate may also sue to benefit the victim’s heirs.

Our Oakland accident lawyer’s office is located at 1300 Clay Street, to provide a convenient place to meet our clients. If you need a personal injury lawyer for your Oakland car accident, contact us for a free consultation. Call us at (510) 982-0953 or e-mail us .

Car Accident Claims

Many car accidents can be resolved without going to court. Otherwise, your car accident lawyer will determine which parties to sue. Filing claims against several parties often improves your chances of receiving adequate compensation.

Your attorney may advise you to sue:

  • Owners of other vehicles.
  • Vehicle drivers.
  • Employers of drivers who were performing their regular job duties.
  • Government entities that controlled or maintained the site of the accident
  • Automobile manufacturers or mechanics, if equipment failed due to manufacturing defects or shoddy repairs.

When the other party is uninsured, you may pursue a claim through your insurer. If you do, remember that your best interests may not coincide with those of the carrier. As a business, the insurer’s main goal is to pay out as little money as possible. When differences with your insurer cannot be negotiated, your attorney may recommend that you sue the carrier.

Convenience

  • For your convenience we offer:
  1. Home and hospital visits.
  2. Night and weekend appointments.
  3. No charge unless we win your case.
  4. Help with medical attention.
  5. Transportation arrangements.
  6. We will also treat you with courtesy, compassion and respect.
