Suffolk County Car & Truck Accidents
Being involved in a car accident can be one of the most traumatic experiences a person can endure. An auto accident may result in both short- and long-term injuries that can lead to mountains of medical bills.
In these situations, we put our trust and faith in insurance companies to protect us against the unexpected. However, despite their pledges of help, insurance companies are interested in paying out as little as they can. Before settling for what you think is adequate compensation for your injuries, speak to an experienced auto accident lawyer to evaluate your case.
A knowledgeable car accident attorney in Suffolk County
The Long Island accident attorneys at the law offices of Kenneth S. Feraru, Esq., we have years of experience dealing with a variety of automobile and other motor vehicle accident cases. As a victim of an auto accident, the case may seem clear to you, but insurance examiners and attorneys representing the insurance companies usually are looking out for their own interests. The following are some examples where having the right car accident attorney can be invaluable:
Hit by a tractor-trailer
Tractor-trailers can cause much more severe accidents than simply being hit by a car. Injuries can range from severe paralysis to death and may involve serious trauma. However, an insurance adjuster is likely to treat your case as if you were just hit another car. But a lawyer experienced in tractor-trailer accidents can argue with the truck driver's insurance company that this type of accident was severe enough to warrant a larger compensation package due to the types of injury and vehicle damage sustained.
You are partially at fault for the accident
Obtaining the right settlement, even from your own insurance company, may be greatly diminished or possibly refused outright if it appears you are somewhat at fault. Before making any statements to your insurance company or the insurance company of the other parties, a good Suffolk County automobile accident lawyer can evaluate your case to determine the level of fault in your case and advise you what to say. This can save you from losing thousands in a settlement.
Driver without insurance
Uninsured drivers are a major problem facing hard-working people who follow the law and pay for insurance. If you are injured and suffer property damage from someone without insurance, who will pay your bills? A tough Long Island accident lawyer can pursue the parties to get you a fair settlement.
