Towson Car Accident Attorneys

A car accident can completely upend your life. You may be left with painful injuries, expensive medical bills, and additional financial losses due to time away from work. You may be unsure about how to move forward as you deal with insurance companies or take steps to obtain financial compensation. Fortunately, an attorney can provide legal help with these issues.

When you work with the team at Posner & Cord, LLC, your case will never be pushed aside or handed off to a case manager. Rather than speaking to a paralegal or another staff member, you will be able to work directly with an attorney who understands what is at stake and who is prepared to fight for the financial compensation you deserve.

Our legal team is committed to providing personalized service and effective legal representation. We will take steps to make sure you are informed of your rights and options throughout the legal process. We will build a compelling case on your behalf and help you achieve the results you are looking for.

Car accidents can occur in numerous ways, but many share a common root: negligent driving. Our attorneys can provide the representation you need to demonstrate that driver negligence was responsible for:

• Rear-End Collisions: These crashes are often caused by distracted driving or tailgating, and they can result in whiplash, back injuries, and more.
• Side-Impact (T-Bone) Accidents: These collisions may take place at intersections when a driver runs a red light or does not yield to other vehicles when they are required to do so.
• Head-On Collisions: These high-impact crashes may be caused by drunk driving, drowsy driving, or wrong-way driving, and they often result in catastrophic injuries.
• Multi-Vehicle Pileups: Chain-reaction crashes can involve multiple drivers and vehicles, and they may be caused by speeding, reckless lane changes, or other forms of negligence.
• Hit-and-Run Accidents: When a driver flees the scene of a crash, victims may be unsure about their options. In these cases, we can help to track down a hit-and-run driver or work to ensure that compensation will be paid through uninsured motorist coverage.

The primary factor behind car accidents is usually unsafe driving. Common forms of negligence include:

• Distracted Driving: Many drivers try to make phone calls or send text messages while driving. They may also be distracted by looking up GPS directions, changing radio stations, reaching for items on the floor or backseat, or eating behind the wheel. Any distractions can increase the chances of an accident.
• Impaired Driving: Alcohol, drugs, and certain prescription medications can have effects that make it impossible for a person to drive safely. Intoxication is one of the most common causes of dangerous collisions.
• Speeding: Many drivers violate speed limits, or they may drive too fast for the conditions on the road, such as heavy traffic or dangerous weather. Speeding can be dangerous, since it limits a driver’s ability to react and stop in time to avoid a collision.
• Failure to Obey Traffic Signals: Drivers who run red lights or stop signs or disobey other types of signs or signals can put others at risk of serious harm in collisions.
• Aggressive Driving: Actions such as tailgating, weaving between lanes, or cutting other drivers off can increase the likelihood of a crash and cause serious injuries.

At Posner & Cord, LLC, our lawyers can perform a detailed analysis of a car crash and the surrounding circumstances. Our investigations may include:

• Visiting the accident site and taking photographs to preserve physical evidence.
• Obtaining black box data or vehicle telematics when available.
• Contacting eyewitnesses to obtain statements.
• Consulting with medical professionals to understand the long-term effects of our client’s injuries.
• Calculating damages by reviewing a person’s current and future financial losses.
• Engaging with insurance adjusters to challenge unfair settlement offers.

By maintaining a close attorney-client relationship throughout this process, the firm ensures that victims have a full understanding of their rights and the progress of their case. There is no guesswork or uncertainty about what comes next.

A successful car accident claim can provide a victim with financial compensation that will address the injuries they have suffered, the financial losses they have experienced, and the personal impact of the crash. Our attorneys will work to secure full compensation for damages that may include:

• Medical Expenses: We work to ensure that hospital bills, surgeries, rehabilitation, medications, and long-term care costs will all be fully covered.
• Lost Income: We help victims obtain compensation for the wages lost during their recovery, as well as the loss of future income due to long-term disabilities.
• Pain and Suffering: Even though the monetary value of physical pain and emotional distress caused by an accident is not always easy to determine, we will fight to make sure our clients will be able to move forward with their lives.

Negligent drivers who are responsible for injuring others in motor vehicle collisions should be held liable for the damages suffered by victims. At Posner & Cord, LLC, our lawyers can help injury victims recover full and fair compensation for their injuries and losses.
