Do most car accident lawsuits settle of go to trial?

Proner & Proner

Well I think there's a paradox there. If you've got a skilled attorney that knows how to try a case, your case is more likely to settle. If you don't have a skilled attorney who doesn't know how to try a case, either the carrier is not going to pay you full value on the claim or its got to be tried and at that point that attorney might refer the case to another attorney who does try cases so that's a good thing to ask your attorney at the outset is "do you actually try cases?"

How can I get a bigger car accident settlement?

Proner & Proner

If you believe you're not getting fair compensation offered to you after an auto accident, for the injuries you've sustained, you need to document your injuries by making sure you're in a care of a skilled medical provider, and that you have an attorney that can use that evidence to present to an insurance carrier, or to a jury, if the case untimely goes to trial, to get you the type of fair compensation you are entitled to. By getting your losses documented, you will be entitled to more money from either an insurance adjuster or a jury if you have a skilled attorney working on your behalf.

Can I still be convicted of vehicular assault if it was an accident?

Altman & Altman, LLP

In Massachusetts generally you are not prosecuted for an accident, a car accident. That’s called a car accident; there may be a civil case. However, if you were driving negligently, or driving dangerously so as to endanger other people, that’s a crime. And if that driving to endanger led to the vehicular assault or say if you were drunk and that led to the vehicular assault, even though the striking of the other individual was not exactly intentional, you can be prosecuted and you can be convicted for that vehicular assault. To say nothing of the fact that maybe it is an accident, but the prosecution doesn’t believe it is an accident until the case goes to trial. And if they convince the jury beyond a reasonable doubt, guilty. I’m Sam Goldberg, Lead Counsel for criminal defense matters at Altman and Altman in Cambridge, Massachusetts. I have twenty-five years of experience. If you’re in trouble and you need someone in your corner who cares and will fight for you, give me a call.
