Are car accidents on the rise in California?

I wouldn't say that car accidents are on the rise. In fact, I think that there's more of a prevalence of people being more careful now. Particularly in California, they've recently passed a law that requires you to wear a headpiece when you use a phone, which I'm seeing a lot of drivers using. I understand that insurance companies are reporting that auto accidents are down because they're using a lot more driver safety programs, particularly with their newer drivers that are coming on to their programs. So, there's not an abundance of more accidents. I'm Jeff Roberts of the Roberts Law Firm, a full service, personal injury law firm in Southern California.

Why do insurance companies limit payouts in car accidents?

Insurance companies try to limit their payouts in car accidents because they are much more interested in profits over people. Insurance companies have people on their payrolls just to protect their profits so that they can show their shareholders how much money they've made. As a plaintiff's personal injury lawyer, I'm more concerned for the person than the insurance companies' profits. And I'll make sure that you get the money that's due to you. Hallo. My name is Mitchell Ashley of Shandell, Blitz, Blitz & Ashley. We've been helping people for over 30 years when they've been hurt through someone else's negligence.

In Massachusetts we see more and more motorcycle accidents every year. Motorcycles have become much more popular, there are hundreds of thousands of them on the road.

Are accidents from auto defects common?

Many times in auto accidents either the cause of the accident or the enhanced injury occurs as the result of the defective or faulty design of the vehicle itself. Unfortunately, most of the time that people are involved in single car accidents they have no idea the vehicle cause contributed to it. Many of these cases are never pursued. They never end up in the hands of lawyers. The thing to look for is, in SUVs, high center of gravity , the ability of the vehicle to roll over easily, such as the 15 passenger vans, failure of seatbelts, roof fall in event the vehicle rolls over, defective air bag - the air bag deploys but doesn't deploy at the appropriate time, protecting their occupant.

Are car accident lawsuits common in Massachusetts?

"Many people who haven't been in car accidents think that if that happened to them, they're just going to call their insurance agent and that their car is going to be fixed, their medical bills are going to be paid, they're going to be paid for their time out of work, and they're going to be paid for the pain and suffering of this horrible experience that they've had. That's not the case. Insurance companies, they're in business to make a profit. They make a profit by paying as little as possible on your claim. The adjusters are trained to do this. Even with an experienced attorney involved, they still resist paying full value on claims. That's why many times these cases require being taken to court to hold the insurance company accountable to ensure that they pay full value for what happened to you. I'm attorney Tom Kiley, I've been representing the seriously injured, and their families, in Massachusetts for over three decades."

What are the most common injuries in a car accident?

The most common kind of automobile accident injury is a whiplash because the majority of auto accidents are rear end accidents. You get a whiplash from the spine being stretched and snapped. Generally, whiplash injuries are an insult to the spine. The really bad thing about a whiplash injury is it doesn't really show up how bad it is for years after the accident.

Are accidents from tire defects still common?

Tire defects are still a problem on roads in the United States today. They're hard to prevent against because tread separation just happens sometimes spontaneously. And no inspection of the tire by a lay person would really reveal that there's a risk of something happening. Once the tire fails, the vehicle is susceptible to going off the road, rolling over and causing serious, catastrophic injury to occupants or bystanders. I'm attorney Tom Kiley. I've been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachusetts for over three decades.

Why are large passenger vans prone to accidents?

The most dangerous vehicle in my experience on the road today is surprising to most people. It's a fifteen passenger van. It has a high center of gravity and once it's loaded up with people and equipment, its handling characteristics change and in bad weather or emergency maneuvers, it can fishtail and roll over. When it rolls over, because its structure is very weak, the roof collapses. When this happens, the injuries can be devastating especially with fifteen people. You have brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, paralysis and death. Most people don't realize it - these vans are out they're. They're used by schools, sports teams, hotels, livery services. People ride in them every day and they're completely unaware of the magnitude of the injuries that can occur in one of these vans. I'm attorney Tom Kiley. I've been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachusetts for over three decades.

Are car accidents on the rise in New York?

With increased traffic you're going to have increased motor vehicles accidents. And that certainly is a significant factor and has continued with increased motor vehicle accidents probably since motor vehicles were on the streets since horse and buggy days. Nonetheless, the increase is not statistically significant for the last five to ten years. And additionally, thankfully, motor vehicles are getting safer with airbags and safety restraint systems. So even though there may be an increase in motor vehicles accidents, there's a decrease in significant injuries. Which is lucky. I's Mitchell Proner.

Are lawsuits from car accidents on the rise in New York?

Car accident lawsuits are actually decreasing in New York state statically from the court administration statistics. And, that's probably a good thing, it means, because in the simple fender bender, there's less injuries because of restraint systems and air bags. However, if somebody is going fast, and they do sustain catastrophic injuries, more likely than not there needs to be a lawsuit for the individual injured in that accident to get fair compensation for the injuries sustained.

Pedestrians are constantly getting hit by cars and buses and trucks and even motorcycles in New York. Its the nature of the city we live in. People don't always drive the way they are supposed to. People don't always follow rules. Everybody has seen that from cabs to trucks to every type of vehicle. They sometimes drive to fast and they sometimes hit pedestrians.

Motorcycle accidents result in much bigger injuries than car to car accidents because the motorcyclist is exposed. It is not uncommon to see major broken bones, head injuries, brain injuries, paralysis.

To recover money, do I need to sue after an auto accident?

Most people that have been injured in an automobile accident do not technically sue. If they are injured, they make a claim and there is a difference between a claim and a lawsuit. A claim is you present a claim to the insurance company and you work out a hopefully fair settlement. If you don't work out a fair settlement, if you don't get the money that you believe you are entitled to, that's when you go to a lawsuit. And lawsuits on personal injury accidents on auto accidents in California have been declining every year for the last ten to fifteen years.

Should I handle my own auto accident claim in California?

People who are involved in auto accidents can handle their own claims. It’s kind of like, can you handle your own injury? Well if your injury is a scratched leg, you can put some antiseptic on it and a band-aid. But if you got a broken leg that needs to be set, I don’t think that’s the kind you want to handle yourself. Same thing with auto accidents – the more serious the accident, the more you’re going to need professional help. I’m John Bisnar, the senior partner of the Bisnar Chase Law Firm.
