Vehicle Accidents
From minor fender benders to catastrophic multi-car pile-ups, most people are involved in at least one automobile accident in their lifetime. In the aftermath of an accident you face car repair bills at the very least, and often devastating injuries, lost wages, and even the loss of a loved one. Insurance companies will try to underpay or avoid paying and will often pressure you to sign away your rights. The experienced automobile accident attorneys at Kendall Drewyor can shield you from predatory insurance companies, preserving your claim to compensation. Vehicle accidents include:Car Accidents:
A car accident can change your life in an instant, whether you were driving on a major highway or in your own neighborhood. Accidents large and small can cause devastating and life-altering injuries, so it is important for you to get proper medical care for your injuries.
One of the most dangerous habits on the road today is distracted driving. Compelled to talk on their cell phones or even read text messages while driving, the road ahead is far too often the last thing on drivers' minds. Our lawyers recognize the signs of distracted driving, and we make sure these drivers are held accountable. Also, drivers who are drunk or driving under the influence present harm to all on the road that they encounter. We work with the prosecution and the arresting officer and will conduct a thorough investigation and gather evidence to build your case. Working hard to reach a fair settlement as quickly as possible, we will not be afraid to take your case to court.
Semi-Truck Accidents:
Semi truck accidents are more complicated than regular auto accidents because they involve trucking companies and their insurance companies, as well as complex trucking laws. Commercial trucks are required to follow specific rules and regulations. Drivers must work specific hours and get regular physical exams. Violation of those requirements can help us make a strong case for you. Our lawyers will request truck logs, gas receipts and other documentation to see if they all add up. We will also use medical and other experts to discuss your injuries and the circumstances of the accident.
Motorcycle Accidents:
About two-thirds of motorcycle accidents are caused by drivers who violate the motorcyclist’s right of way. In many cases this violation causes the motorcycle to go out of control or off the road in a single vehicle accident where the other automobile is not affected. Sometimes the other driver never sees the motorcycle and does not know an accident has occurred. The need to track down the responsible driver in that type of accident is just one of the unique aspects that make motorcycle accident lawsuits very different from other types of auto accidents.
Investigating a motorcycle accident requires a combination of understanding the physics and common behaviors that lead to and are involved in motorcycle accidents, as well as the prejudice that can mean police reports and eyewitness accounts that are unfavorably skewed against the motorcyclist. An in-depth understanding of these elements is necessary in order to know what to look for as the cause of the accident and to make a clear explanation of the accident to non-biker jury members.
