How long does a car accident case take?
Several factors will influence how long your car accident case will take to resolve. Generally, cases that settle take less time than cases that go to a jury trial. Depending on the complexity of the case, the number of witness interviews, the amount of evidence to gather, and other factors, your case could take several weeks to several months or more.
How many people die in car accidents each year?
More than 38,800 people died in motor vehicle crashes in the U.S. in 2020, according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). Of those, 934 people died in vehicle crashes in Alabama.
What is the average settlement for a car accident case?
Because each crash is different, there is no “average” settlement for a car accident claim. Generally, the more serious the injury, the higher the payout. Other factors that can impact the size of a settlement include (1) multiple injured parties, (2) the number of defendants, and (3) whether punitive damages are awarded. Damages can range from tens of thousands to millions of dollars. A Mobile car accident lawyer may give you an estimate of what your case could be worth.
How many parties can I sue in a Mobile car accident claim?
Generally, you can name one or several defendants in a car accident lawsuit, depending on the facts in the case. For example, the other vehicle’s driver is an obvious person to sue. But you could also sue the vehicle manufacturer if a mechanical defect caused the accident. In addition, you could sue a government agency if it failed to keep the roadway repaired and free of debris. In a collision with a large truck, you could sue a trucking company that failed to conduct proper truck maintenance. Your Mobile car accident attorney will advise who should be named defendants in your case.
How do you prove negligence?
To prove that the other driver or vehicle manufacturer was negligent, your attorney must prove four elements: Duty, Breach, Causation, and Damages. These are the four pillars of negligence. To learn more, read about negligence here.
