Who assesses fault in an auto accident?
Typically, insurance companies and the court will determine fault in an auto accident. They can do this by reviewing the police report and any additional evidence. You and the other parties involved in the accident may be asked questions regarding the collision. After some time and consideration, each party may be assigned fault in an accident.
Who can recover in the event of a fatal accident?
If a car accident led to a wrongful death, the surviving spouse or next of kin of the deceased person could seek compensation. Surviving family members may be able to recover compensation for the loss of companionship and other forms of financial support.
Do I really need a lawyer if I am offered a settlement by the insurance company?
Yes. Insurance companies do not have your best interests in mind. An adjuster may give you a compensation offer that is well below the value you should receive. Our lawyers can help you negotiate a fair compensation offer and protect you from the insurance company’s mechanisms.
