Automobile Accidents
Anniston, Oxford Alabama Car Accident Lawyer
Experienced Alabama Car Accident Lawyer
On any given day, the roads in Alabama are teeming with people busy with their activities. Folks are traveling to and from work, on trips to the store, during recreation when suddenly — a careless driver causes an accident. Unfortunately, due to the negligence of another driver, our lives can change suddenly, sometimes tragically, forever. Car and truck accidents can result in serious and even fatal injuries, affecting the lives of the victims and their families. Whether you are using an automobile for work or taking your children to the movies, if you are involved in car accident, it is important for you to speak with a lawyer who can help you recover damages and money compensation for your injuries. Who else is going to help you deal with maximizing your claim, and minimizing the problems with the claim (such as subrogation or hospial liens), other than your own lawyer? Insurance companies have legal departments. The other side has a lawyer because they know that they need one. So do you.

To speak with a dedicated personal injury attorney about your motor vehicle claim, please contact our office at (256) 238-0038 to schedule a free initial consultation.
For over 30 years, our firm has been helping folks recover damages and money compensation for accidents caused by:
- Auto defects, such as acceleration problems or brake failure
- Negligent, reckless or distracted driving by another vehicle, such as speeding, running a red light, failing to yield the right of way, texting, eating, talking on a cell phone
- Truck wrecks, including poor maintenance of the tractor trailer or driver fatigue
- Poor or defective road conditions from failure by government authority to properly maintain roadways or construction zones
- Drunk driving related crashes and fatalities
- Improper lane changes and other violations of the Rules of the Road
As part of our comprehensive case work we will explain the legal process, we will gather available evidence of the crash, including photographs of the damage to your car and the accident scene, witness statements, and retrieval of treatment/ medical records and charges showing treatment for your injuries and their costs. We will help you determine coverages and timely file insurance claims with your own insurance company and the negligent parties' insurer. We will also help you in you dealing with government agencies such as Medicaid and Medicare, as well as your own insurance company, regarding necessary subrogation issues.
In fatal car crash cases, we also help family members recover compensation associated with the loss of a loved one by filing and pursuing a wrongful death lawsuit. Additionally, if the car accident occurred during the course of your employment, we can help you file a workers' compensation claim and deal with the additional workers compensation subrogation issues peculiar to such cases.
