Vehicle Accident Lawyer
Experienced Vehicle Accident Lawyers and Attorneys Fighting to Get You Maximum Compensation
The risk you put yourself in when you get into a car or any other vehicle should not be underestimated.
According to national crash data from 2019, it’s estimated that five people are injured in traffic accidents every minute, and one person is killed in these crashes every 15 minutes. Additionally, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has found that road traffic accidents are a leading cause of death in the United States for people ages 1 through 54.
If you were injured in a vehicle accident or traffic accident that was caused by someone else, you have a right to seek compensation for all of your injuries and losses. While anyone can file an insurance claim on their own, it’s best to seek compensation with the help of an attorney, as insurance companies are known for trying to place blame on victims and pay out as little as they can.
Our dedicated personal injury lawyers at Carpenter & Zuckerman have experience handling all types of vehicle accidents, and we’re well-known by insurance companies as aggressive trial attorneys who don’t settle for less. We’ll handle all the communication and negotiation with the insurance company on your behalf and fight to get you the best settlement. We’ll even take your case to court, if needed!

Distracted driving (such as texting and driving or eating while driving)
Reckless driving
Drunk driving
Road rage
Speeding and other traffic violations
Failing to see bicyclists or give them enough space on the road
Failing to see pedestrians or give them the right of way

What to Do After a Vehicle Accident
Following your car accident or any other type of vehicle accident, it’s important that you take certain steps right away for your own safety and for the purpose of strengthening your case.
After your crash, you should:
Call 911 if anyone is injured.
File a police report and request a copy for your records.
Collect the names and insurance information of all involved parties.
Ask witnesses for their contact information, as this could help corroborate your side of the story.
Take photos of the accident scene, including any vehicle damage, nearby signage, road conditions, and your injuries.
Get medical attention right away, either in the ER or in a regular doctor’s visit — even if you don’t think you are injured badly.
Keep a record of all expenses, including medical expenses, vehicle repair, vehicle rentals, and any other costs associated with your accident.
Call a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible. You should not make any statements to the insurance companies without first talking to your attorney.
