Truck accidents typically involve more severe injuries due to the size and weight of commercial vehicles. These cases often require a deep understanding of federal regulations, as well as holding trucking companies and drivers accountable for negligence.

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcycle accidents frequently result in serious injuries due to the rider’s lack of protection. These cases require a focused approach to address biases against motorcyclists and ensure that the unique aspects of motorcycle dynamics and injuries are considered.

Pedestrian Accident

Pedestrian accidents often lead to severe injuries as pedestrians have no protection against vehicles. These cases involve detailed investigations to prove driver negligence and secure compensation for the extensive medical care and recovery time pedestrians often need.

Types of Accidents We Handle

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What should I do immediately after an auto accident?

    First, ensure everyone’s safety and seek medical attention if needed. Then, gather as much information as possible, including photos of the scene, contact details of witnesses, and the other driver’s information. Finally, report the accident to the police and your insurance company.

  • How long do I have to file a personal injury claim after an accident?

    In Indiana, the statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim is generally two years from the date of the accident. It’s important to consult with a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible to ensure all deadlines are met.

  • How is fault determined in an auto accident case?

    Fault is determined based on the evidence gathered from the accident scene, police reports, witness statements, and sometimes expert testimony. Indiana follows a comparative fault rule, which means you can still recover damages even if you are partially at fault, though your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault.

  • What types of compensation can I receive for my injuries?

    You may be entitled to various types of compensation, including medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, property damage, and, in some cases, punitive damages. A personal injury lawyer can help evaluate your case and determine the compensation you may be eligible for.
