Though almost everyone in the U.S. goes through a car accident at some point in their lives, obtaining compensation for injuries inflicted during a collision isn’t always so simple. Insurance companies are known for paying out as little as possible following a car accident, and the heavy burden of their slack is hardly fair on the occasions when an accident wasn’t your fault.
That’s where an experienced car injury lawyer can help. A good attorney will work with you throughout the entire process to ensure you’re receiving the payment necessary to get the proper medical care, lost wages and vehicle repairs you may need.
What damages can be claimed in a car accident injury lawsuit?
These are some (but not all) of the general and special damages plaintiffs may be able to collect:
What can I expect from my
car accident injury settlement?
While an exact amount is impossible to predict, previous verdicts range from tens of thousands to tens of millions. It’s important to note that your case will be individually assessed, meaning your settlement will not be shared with others. Our priority is to ensure the best possible outcome for you, not inflating attorney profits.

Most (but not all) auto accident lawyers work on a contingency basis, meaning you don’t have to pay for lawyer fees unless you win your case. A typical attorney fee for personal injury lies between 30-40% of your total settlement, and your medical and property damage costs are deducted from what’s left over. The amount of your settlement could also be limited by your state or region’s transportation laws.
What should I ask an attorney before I decide to work with them?
When meeting with an injury attorney, be sure to bring relevant documents such as your insurance policy, police reports, medical records, photographs and receipts for any other costs incurred due to the accident. It is best to have a list of questions ready for easy reference when you meet with a prospective attorney. Some of the questions you might consider asking are as follows:
What percentage of your practice is devoted to personal injury law?
Do you have any experience with my specific type of injury?
How many attorneys work in your firm?
What out-of-pocket costs will I be responsible for?
What is a reasonable amount to expect for the settlement?
When is the best time to hire an auto accident attorney?
It may be a good idea for you to immediately see an attorney before signing any documents or talking with insurance companies. Many injury attorneys work with medical teams and rehabilitation clinics that may be able to save you the out-of-pocket costs of your treatment, and it is best to have your attorney involved in the process from the beginning to avoid any costly mistakes.
