Michigan Distracted Driving Crashes

Farmington Hills, MI - Drivers Injured in Car Accident at I-696 & Orchard Lake RdThousands of people lose their lives, and hundreds of thousands more sustain injuries each year as a result of distracted driving crashes. Driver distraction is a serious problem that is only becoming worse in Michigan. When texting while driving, your risk of being involved in a car accident is nearly three times greater, and in the five seconds it takes to send a text, a driver can travel the length of a football field while traveling at highway speeds. If you were involved in a Michigan car accident, you need to exercise caution when speaking with an insurance adjuster. The insurance and vehicle repair adjusters are supposed to help you cover your medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages. Unfortunately, some adjusters can try to use what you say against you.This is one of the many reasons why you need to contact an attorney as soon as possible. Your lawyer will be capable of managing all negotiations with the insurance companies involved. You should be cautious about interacting with the at-fault driver's insurance adjuster if you do not have legal representation. Once you secure an attorney to represent you, you can let them handle negotiations on your behalf. This will protect you from being denied or having only lowball settlement offers.Car accident victims may be eligible to file a personal injury claim to recover compensation for lost damages. A Farmington Hill auto accident lawyer can work to strengthen your claim and increase your final settlement.
