What You Could Have Suffered from Your Car Crash in Gilbert

When you’ve been in an auto wreck, you’re likely suffering from pain and physical injuries that you sustained in the collision. Whether you were at high speeds or low speeds when the other vehicle crashed into you, or you struck an object, it’s still possible that you’re hurt. On top of your physical injuries, you could also be suffering from emotional injuries because the event was traumatic.

It’s important to seek medical treatment immediately so that you can get a record of the harm you endured as well as start your treatment to heal your damages right away. This gives you a better chance at recovery as well as provides your car accident lawyer with the documentation they need to prove that the other party definitely caused you physical and emotional damages.

Knowing what injuries other victims of auto wrecks have sustained can help you understand what you’ve been through and make sense of what you’ve experienced. Here are some of the most common physical and emotional injuries that your attorney could use in your claim against a negligent driver or other party:

Bruises
Cuts
Soft tissue injuries
Broken bones
Burns
Traumatic brain injuries
Spinal cord injuries
Neck and back injuries
Amputations
Paralysis
PTSD
Depression
Anxiety

Having a medical record showing you’ve experienced any of these injuries, the date they occurred, and that you received treatment for them all help build you a stronger car accident claim. This proves that the collision caused you injuries and affected your well-being.

When you have a Gilbert, AZ car accident lawyer on your side from our firm, you can have peace of mind knowing that we will use your injuries to prove the other party was at fault and get you the compensation that you deserve.

Types of Car Wrecks You Could Have Experienced

Another important aspect of your car accident claim will be determining exactly what happened to cause your crash in the first place. You might think that the cause was obvious directly after your collision, but you could be wrong. It’s not your fault that you were wrong—you were just assuming from how it looked.

But in reality, there are many different parties who could be at fault and could have caused your wreck. That’s why you should never initially blame anyone after a wreck—it could be a different situation that you never expected. Here are some of the different types of car accidents that could have happened and could have been caused by a number of different parties’ negligence:

Hit and run
Sideswipe
T-bone or side-impact
Rear-end
Head-on
Rollover
Single car
Multiple vehicle

By looking into your crash and what caused it, your attorney will be able to get to the bottom of whose negligence created the accident and which party was at fault for what happened. Any documentation, reports, or witness accounts that you have can help your Gilbert, AZ car accident lawyer build the strongest claim possible.

Damages You Can Recover in Your Car Accident Claim

One of the aspects of your claim that you’re most concerned about is likely how much you can recover in compensation. That’s one of the biggest advantages to having a car accident lawyer on your side through your case—they’ll calculate exactly what you’re owed and keep you from settling for less. The other party usually pushes you to settle for less than you deserve, but an attorney won’t let that happen.

Your Gilbert, AZ car accident attorney will compile all your damages to figure out how much you’re owed financially. To get this number, they’ll look at your economic and noneconomic damages. These are made up of the physical costs and more abstract costs you suffered, respectively. Here are some of the different bills and costs you’ve suffered that will factor into your fair compensation amount:

Medical bills
Prescription costs
Costs of future care and equipment
Repair costs
Current and future lost wages
Pain and suffering
Emotional turmoil
Mental anguish
Loss of enjoyment of life
Loss of consortium in the event of death

Even though it’s rare, your case might also be eligible for punitive damages. These are intended to punish the at-fault party for gross negligence. Typically, these don’t happen in car accident claims, but they’re still possible depending on what caused your wreck.

Compensation can get complicated, which is why you need an experienced car accident attorney on your side to guide you through the claim process and determine exactly what you’re owed. You deserve to recover all the costs you incurred from this accident that you didn’t cause.

"Thank God we found him. He really seemed to care about our family."
Mr. Buckingham won our case after two other law firms said it would be impossible to win. He knew the medicine better than the experts in the case. I guess the fact that he’s also a doctor was a great help.

Former Client

Mr. Buckingham flew to the East Coast several times & understood how a correct gall bladder surgery is supposed to be done better than the surgeon. He was very knowledgeable & precise.

We turned to him when we had nowhere else to go. Turns out it was the best decision we could have ever made. They represented us in a difficult case and made those responsible accountable for their actions.

Former Client
