Personal injury & automobile accidents
Types of Car Accidents
There are many types of car accidents and collisions: Rear ended, side swiped, T-boned and head on collisions. These happen everyday and hiring a skilled attorney to help you navigate the injuries, insurance and settlement negotiations is important.
These types of car accidents occur when people are distracted by cell phones, driving above the speed limit, trying to beat a red light or failing to yield and stop at stop signs.
