What you should do when you are involved in a car accident

• Keep your car insurance information in the glove compartment, including a pre-printed form allowing you to provide the particulars of any accident, including a sketch of the scene. (Even better, use that disposable camera you keep in the car. You don't? You should.)

• Stay at the scene of the accident until police have come and gone, making sure you have the name of the officer(s) and that they have your version of what happened. Do not assume a police report will "take you off the hook" or even that one will be generated in the event of a minor accident ("minor" may mean no one is injured even though your car suffers a direct hit).

• Exchange names, addresses, driver's license and insurance information with the driver of the other car.

• Review your policy to make sure of your coverage. Make a list of questions and related information you want to know.

Car Accident Information

Car accidents are caused by a number of factors, including:

• Reckless driving/negligence
• Inexperienced drivers
• Poor weather conditions
• Unsafe roadways
• A defect in the car
• Inadequate car repairs
• Drivers who are under the influence of drugs or alcohol

When you've been injured in a car accident, your whole life can change. Similarly, if someone you love is killed in a car crash, the emotional and financial distress can be overwhelming.

Under Colorado law, the person who causes a car accident is financially responsible for all of the provable damages related to the accident. Typical damages following a car accident may include damages to property (such as car damage), and bodily injury (damage to the vehicle occupants themselves). For legal purposes, a bodily injury claim is generally sub-divided into two categories:

• Economic Damages: past and future medical expenses, wage loss, and additional expenses related to physical impairment and disfigurement.
• Non-Economic Damages: pain, suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, inconvenience, physical impairment, and other similar losses.

People often wonder if their accident or their injuries are big enough to even justify hiring an attorney. Given all the complexities that may be involved in handling injury claims, it is very important to consider having any type of injury claim reviewed by an injury lawyer.

Determining Liability

Auto accident attorneys protect the legal rights of the injured, even those who share some of the responsibility for their injuries. Whether you were driving, a passenger of the car, a pedestrian, or on a bicycle or motorcycle, if you were in a car accident, it is in your best interest to consult Jude Law, LLC immediately to discuss your case.

The liability (or legal responsibility) for a given car accident may lie with one party or with two or more parties. Determining who is responsible for the car accident is one of the fundamental aspects of a case.

A qualified car accident attorney will investigate the scene where the accident took place and will interview and work with all parties involved, including witnesses to the accident. The attorney will also work closely with car accident and forensic experts in an effort to determine the true cause of the accident.

After carefully evaluating your case, a skilled attorney will stand up for you against insurance companies and will fight to ensure your legal rights are protected.
