What is a Motor Vehicle Accident Injury Case?

Some of the most severe injuries on the road result from motor vehicle accidents, especially when smaller or less protected vehicles are involved. Unlike occupants of larger vehicles, individuals in cars, on motorcycles, or in other unshielded vehicles face a much higher risk of catastrophic injury in a crash. Common types of motor vehicle accidents include:
  • Distracted or reckless drivers
  • Failure to yield the right of way
  • Dooring incidents
  • Speeding or aggressive driving
  • Poor road conditions
  • Impaired driving
Injuries sustained in motor vehicle accidents often include:
  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
  • Road rash and lacerations
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Bone fractures
  • Internal injuries
  • Permanent disability or wrongful death
Injured victims of motor vehicle accidents often deal with extended recovery periods, loss of income, and mounting medical bills. When someone else’s negligence caused the crash, a personal injury claim may help you pursue compensation for:
  • Medical bills
  • Rehabilitation costs
  • Lost wages and earning potential
  • Pain and suffering
  • Property damage
McNamara & Goodman works tirelessly to help motor vehicle accident victims rebuild their lives.

What Should I Bring to My First Appointment?
