Garden City Personal Injury Attorney
Protecting Your Rights
Facing the trauma of a personal injury accident can place a huge strain not only in an emotional and physical sense, but also financially. Costly medical treatments, hospitalization, ambulance fees, lost income, and potentially losing out on future employment as well, there are a number of expenses to deal with in the aftermath.
In a personal injury case where there is another party at fault for the injuries sustained, the victim should never have to worry about how they are going to afford everything. Their insurance company or that of the guilty party should step in and pay for the claims that they request. Many times insurance providers will attempt to avoid paying out legitimate claims because it saves them money, but this is called insurance bad faith.
No matter what the situation entails, it is essential that you retain the legal assistance of a Garden City personal injury lawyer to come to your aid. Someone who is knowledgeable regarding New York State laws will be able to investigate your case and come to your assistance as you seek out maximum restitution for you loss and suffering.
Common Cause of Injury: Motor Vehicle Accidents
Every day car accidents, truck collisions, motorcycle incidents and other motor vehicle accidents occur throughout New York. It is important to realize that these accidents are the 2nd leading cause of deaths related to injury in Nassau County according to the New York State Department of Health.
For the year 2007, every week there were approximately two fatalities, 32 individuals sent to a hospital and 274 people given treatment in the emergency department. Approximately $80 million in emergency department and hospital charges were spent to treat injuries in Nassau County for 2007.
Pedestrians and motorcyclists were the ones with the highest average for medical charges and the accidents causing the highest charges were caused by speeding, tailgating, and failure to yield. In order to make Garden City and all of Nassau County a safe place to live in and drive around, the residents need to remember to always be aware of others on the road. It is essential that each individual driver always keep their attention solely on their primary focus of driving and not on texting, eating, talking or grooming.
With the rate of distracted driving on the rise especially in the realm of cell phone use, it is important to hold people accountable for their actions on the road. If you have been a victim of personal injury, you should get in touch with the appropriate legal help from a representative at our firm.
