Motor Vehicle Accidents in Frederick

There are many types of collisions that can occur on the roads throughout Frederick, including:

• Rear-End Accidents: Issues such as tailgating or failing to pay attention to the movements of other vehicles during heavy traffic can cause drivers to collide with other cars or trucks from behind. While rear-end collisions may seem to be relatively minor, they can result in issues such as whiplash and soft tissue injuries.
• Head-On Collisions: Drunk driving, reckless driving, or distracted driving may cause drivers to cross lanes and collide with oncoming traffic. These accidents are more likely to result in severe bodily harm due to the speeds of the vehicles involved.
• T-Bone Collisions: Intersections are common locations where accidents occur, and these collisions often involve one vehicle striking the side of another car or truck. These accidents may be caused by drivers who disobey traffic signals or fail to respect the right of way of other vehicles. A collision can lead to severe injuries for a driver or passengers.
• Multi-Vehicle Accidents: On major highways such as I-70 or US-15, drivers traveling at high speeds may lose control or engage in reckless behaviors. This can lead to collisions that cause chain reactions, potentially leading to serious injuries for a large number of drivers and passengers.
• Pedestrian Accidents: Drivers who do not pay close attention to people who are crossing the road or walking near traffic may inflict serious injuries when they strike people on foot. These accidents can result in severe bodily harm to pedestrians.

Compensation for Injuries and Damages in a Car Crash

The effects of a car accident can be significant, and victims will need to address multiple types of financial losses and other issues. Fortunately, compensation can help ensure that a person will be able to make a full recovery. Our attorney can help victims recover compensation for damages such as:

• Lost Income: Injuries may prevent a person from working for a significant period of time, and this can lead to financial difficulties as a family struggles to address ongoing expenses. Compensation may address the past income that was lost during a person's recovery and future income that they may be unable to earn due to ongoing medical issues or disabilities.
• Medical Expenses: Treatment for injuries suffered in a car accident can lead to large medical bills. Ambulance transportation, emergency care, hospitalization, surgery, regular doctor visits, medications, and rehabilitation may be required, and a family may struggle to address medical debts related to these forms of treatment. The compensation a victim receives for a car accident should fully cover all of these costs and any future treatment that may be required.
• Non-Economic Damages: A victim may also experience issues that are not as easy to put a price on. The pain and suffering related to a car accident may include significant emotional trauma, as well as ongoing physical concerns. Compensation may address this personal impact and help a victim take steps to put their life back together.
