Drivers have a responsibility to operate their vehicles safely on the roadways. To prevent accidents, they must be considerate of other drivers and always pay attention. Unfortunately, car accidents are common, and a 2016 report noted that there were 155,907 total auto accidents across Alabama. Who is responsible for righting the wrongs and compensating the victims of an auto accident? The insurance company is!

When a driver causes an auto accident, that driver's insurance company should make the situation right without hassle or incident. However, insurance companies make money by paying out as little as they are allowed. If you have been injured in a car accident, you should fight to receive the compensation you deserve. You may be entitled to payments for your injuries and any lost wages related to your injuries. It is a fact of life that negligent drivers cause car accidents every day, and every day, insurance companies work hard to avoid taking responsibility. They do not often show concern for the effects of lingering injuries that may affect a car accident victim's daily life or the medical costs that can pile up as a result of the accident.

Let Cartee & Lloyd Attorneys at Law stand with you and help you to fight for the compensation you deserve. We will help you stand up to the insurance company and pay you every dollar you owe. Call our firm today at (205) 759-1554 for a FREE case evaluation.

Why You Need an Auto Accident Attorney:

While an attorney is not required to settle your claim against an auto insurance company, you are at a marked disadvantage without one. Insurance adjusters approach accident victims intending to minimize the amount their insurance company is forced to pay in any settlement. They are experienced negotiators who know the law and are trained to put the insurance company's interests first. What's best for you will not factor into any offer an adjuster makes, and decreasing the value of your claim will be part of any adjuster's objective. With a powerful insurance company aiming to get you to settle for less than you deserve, you will need a strong advocate to fight on your behalf. The car accident attorneys at our firm will assist you by:

  • Helping to Determine the Value of Your Auto Accident Claim
  • Answering any Questions You May Have
  • Advising You on Actions to Take in Response to an Unfair Settlement Offer
  • Representing You in Court if the case Cannot be Settled

What Causes Most Car Accidents in the Tuscaloosa, Alabama, Area?

The most common cause of auto accidents is distracted drivers. Drivers have plenty of potential distractions between using cell phones, listening to music, eating, and other activities. Not everyone resists the temptation of "multi-tasking" when watching the road should be the sole priority. At Cartee & Lloyd Attorneys at Law, we hold insurance companies accountable for any accidents caused by insured but distracted drivers.

Distracted drivers result in many yearly car accident totals but are not the only cause. Younger or otherwise less experienced drivers are more likely than the average to make mistakes on the road. Whether the accident resulted from distraction, poor driving in inclement weather, failure to observe traffic signals, or another situation, our firm is here to be a resource for the unfortunate victims involved.

Besides being distracted and lacking experience, drunk drivers are another recurring cause of auto accidents. Inebriated drivers are prone to costly traffic errors that often change lives in major, negative ways. If you were involved in an accident with a drunk driver, we can help.

What to Do Immediately After a Car Accident

If you were injured in an auto accident, you should prepare and take steps to give yourself the best chance at victory. Take the following actions right after a car accident:

  • Make sure you and anyone with you are OK. Check on the others involved in the accident as well.
  • If there is an emergency, promptly dial 911.
  • Get the contact information for anyone who was involved in the accident.
  • Get the contact information for any witnesses.
  • Obtain a copy of the accident report from the police.
  • Seek immediate attention for any injuries. Seeing a physician after an accident is a good idea, even if you don't feel hurt initially.
  • Obtain a medical record of your injuries from your physician.
