Causes of Car Accidents
A car accident can be the result of a variety of factors. The bottom line is that if someone else is as fault, he or she should be held responsible.
Common causes of car accidents include:
- Drunk driving
- Texting while driving
- Distracted driving, such as eating, drinking, or adjusting the radio
- Defective vehicles
Our Pottsville car accident lawyers carefully assess all of the data available while working to uncover new evidence that can strengthen your claim. We take the time to interview witnesses and consult with experts – such as accident reconstructionists and medical professionals – as we build a strong case on your behalf.
What to Do after a Car Accident
In the wake of a car accident, you are probably feeling overwhelmed and full of adrenaline. It can be difficult to make sense of what happened, but it is important to follow a few important steps after being involved in an accident.
We recommend that you:
- Obtain contact information from the other driver(s)
- Take as many photos and notes as possible
- Call the police
- Seek medical attention even if you don’t think you are injured
- Contact an attorney before speaking with any insurance companies
When you call Metzger Wickersham, we can get to work on your case as soon as possible to ensure that everything is handled with your best interests in mind.
