Car accidents are life-changing experiences.  Accidents which you may seek compensation for come from a multitude of scenarios, including as a driver, passenger, or pedestrian.  At Brentwood Law Group, we are here to take care of you every step of the way.  Will will help file your insurance claim, get your bills paid, and most importantly, get the closure you need to move on with your life with the compensation you deserve.

When a claim is filed with an insurance company, the insurance company will conduct an investigation to determine who was at fault.  In order to file a lawsuit, the driver or passenger who was struck (plaintiff) must prove that the opposing individual (defendant) was negligent.  This requires establishing four elements:

1. The plaintiff was owed a duty of care by the defendant;
2. The defendant breached this duty of care;
3. The breach of duty resulted in an accident; and
4. The accident led to physical injuries.

Insurance companies will attempt to shift the blame onto you; they will try anything to argue that you were liable for the car accident.  Brentwood Law Group will fight on your behalf and against the insurance companies to determine liability for the crash and recover your damages.

Common damages pursued in a car accident action include compensation for the following:

• Medical expenses for surgery costs, physical therapy fees, medication, injections, and future treatments and procedures;
• Lost income due to absent days at work;
• Property damage for reimbursement of repairs to your vehicle or for loss of personal items; and
• Pain and suffering for noneconomic damages that mentally or emotionally traumatized you.

If you have been injured in a motor vehicle accident caused by the negligence of another driver, you may be able to seek compensation for your injuries.  At Brentwood Law Group, we will work to ensure that negligent drivers are held accountable for the harm that has come to you.
