Our Vancouver Car Accident Services
Car accidents can be a life-altering experience. They are usually the start of what can be an extremely lengthy process of filing an insurance claim, determining fault, and finally, getting the closure you need to move on with your life. Below are just some of the examples of car accident cases we take on.
Distracted driving
If you or a loved one has been injured in a distracted driving accident, it is important to protect your rights and interests so that you can fully heal and recover. We are here to help you do that.
Driving under the influence
We can help you seek fair compensation by filing a claim with the insurance carrier of the at-fault drunk driver.
Reckless driving
If a negligent person caused an accident, you have the right to compensation.
Rear end collision
Even “minor fender-bender” rear-end collisions can cause serious neck and back injuries with long-term effects.
Fatal car accidents
Having worked on thousands of personal injury cases, including those involving wrongful death, we understand how challenging this process can be. Fortunately, we have access to a network of experts who can help us bolster your claim.
Head on collision
Head-on collisions are some of the most deadly, often resulting in catastrophic injuries such as brain injuries and spinal cord injuries. If you or a loved one was injured in a preventable crash, it is important to consider your legal options.
Rollover accident
If you were injured in a rollover car accident, our car accident lawyers have the experience and resources to help you in your recovery.
T bone accident
If a driver fails to stop and blows through a stop sign or stop light, or fails to properly yield, his or her vehicle can slam into other vehicles or pedestrians who are following traffic laws. Negligent drivers should be held accountable for their actions.
Texting while driving
If you or a loved one has been seriously injured in an accident that was caused by a negligent driver in Washington, you have the right to seek full compensation for your injuries.
Workzone accident
If you were injured as a crew member in a work zone, you may be told that workers’ compensation is your available source of funding to pay for medical bills. In fact, there may be other sources of compensation. There is no substitute for the experienced review of an accident by a Washington car accident attorney.
Multi vehicle accidents
If you were injured in a multi vehicle accident in Washington, you should contact an experienced car accident attorney right away.
What to do after a car accident in Vancouver
The first and most crucial thing to do if you’ve been involved in a car accident is to call emergency medical help for anyone who might be injured. After doing that, you should move out of oncoming traffic, if it is safe to do so. You can do that after taking pictures and videos of the accident scene, as they may serve as evidence. It’s also important to report the accident to the police.
When you’ve done these things, you want to take proper documentation as much as possible, including the following information:
- The name, address and phone number of the other driver
- The name and contact information of the passengers and possible witnesses
- The driver’s license number
- The make, model, and year of the other car
- The license plate number of the other car
- The name, contact number, and policy number of the insurance company
- VIN of the car if possible
