The majority of car accidents that I see occur when my client is minding his or her own business, stopped at a red light or stop sign, and then slammed into by someone who wasn't paying attention. Because the negligent driver has a duty to keep a proper lookout and to refrain from crashing into people, these cases are very strong whether the injuries are minor or serious. If you are injured in a motor vehicle accident, you should report the accident to the police, your insurance company and the negligent driver's insurance company. Be sure to seek appropriate medical treatment and talk to an experienced personal injury attorney to find out what your rights are.
