ACCIDENTS
TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF
This is where other law firms normally write something like “If you’ve been in a car accident . . .”
But we’re not other law firms. Because when it comes to vehicle collisions that result in injuries, ‘accident’ is usually the wrong word. Some 94% of car ‘accidents’ that cause significant injury are due to driver negligence.
Since the late 1990’s, there has been a concerted effort by the medical profession, state governments, and safety advocates to use ‘crash’ instead of ‘accident.’
‘Accident’ sounds like there was no way to anticipate, never mind stop, a collision. Nobody’s at fault because ‘it just happened.’
Crashes don’t ‘just happen.’
Drivers cause crashes.
Car crashes have victims.
If you or a family member are the victims of a car crash, get treatment, get better, and call Driven Law.
DON'T WAIT TO TAKE ACTION
The physical costs of a car crash can be immense, and recovery long and arduous. Car crashes, however, do more than physically injure.
It takes some time for the other costs to manifest themselves, but they are always looming. Bills – the ambulance, emergency room, hospital, physical therapy, chiropractic, and various specialists – will pile up. The hours of lost work make keeping up with the new bills (while still keeping a roof over your head) almost an impossibility.
These are tangible, direct results of the crash.
Pain, stress, diminished physical abilities, and so much more are the intangibles.
Car crashes occur in seconds, but the consequences are felt for years.
Whatever the severity of your injuries, you need to consult an attorney – as quickly as possible. The time to bring an action to recover what you’ve lost begins the day you are injured.
The attorneys and staff at Driven Law have extensive experience representing crash victims throughout Florida.
