Driver Negligence in Car Accidents

Negligence is one of the leading causes of car accidents in New York. A driver may not pay attention while driving due to texting, distracted driving, or a DUI. Commercial drivers may fall asleep at the wheel or may lack the proper training to operate their vehicles.

Regardless of how your accident occurred, Morelli Law Firm invites you to call our firm for a free case assessment. A New Rochelle car accident lawyer from our firm may be able to investigate your case, manage all the aspects of your accident claim, and fight for a settlement or court awards.

Morelli Law Firm takes on a wide range of car accident cases such as:

  • Traffic violations
  • DUIs
  • Texting and driving
  • Reckless driving
  • Vehicle malfunction
  • Bicycle or pedestrian accidents
  • And more

Many of these accidents can lead to back and neck injuries, burns, broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, or soft tissue injuries.

Evidence of Negligent Drivers

Your car accident case may require evidence of who was at fault for the accident and your subsequent injuries. When you work with us on your case, a New Rochelle car accident lawyer from Morelli Law Firm may be able to gather evidence of fault and liability such as:

Camera Footage

With all the cameras on New York roadways, getting footage of traffic accidents may be possible in your case. In addition, you may have photos of the accident or your injuries. We may be able to use this footage to help build your case.

Medical Records

It is important to keep copies of your medical reports, bills, and receipts. You may also want to document conversations with your doctor or medical specialist. Your lawyer may be able to use this information to build your case.

Eyewitnesses

If possible, you may want to gather the contact information of witnesses who saw the accident. Our lawyers may be able to contact witnesses who can recount how the accident happened and verify your claim.

Expert Witnesses

We may hire a private investigator, medical expert, or accident reconstruction expert who can corroborate your story and provide testimony that supports your claim. Expert witnesses may help you establish fault and liability in your case.

Determining What Your Case May Be Worth

There are several types of damages that you may be able to claim in a car accident lawsuit. Damages that our lawyers may look at include:

Hospital and Medical Costs

Injuries in car accidents can range from cuts and bruises to paralysis or disability. Regardless of your injuries, you may be left with medical bills such as:

  • Ambulance fees
  • Emergency room care
  • Healthcare consultations
  • Surgical procedures
  • Disfigurement or disability
  • In-home care services
  • Medical devices (crutches/wheelchair)

The extent of your medical costs may depend on the severity and duration of your injuries. Our law firm can gather documents to help you determine how much you have paid or may pay out-of-pocket for these expenses.

Pain and Suffering

From a legal standpoint, pain and suffering may refer to the physical or mental distress you have endured from the accident. You may experience agony or discomfort over a period of several weeks. In addition, you may go through emotional trauma, anxiety, or depression over your condition. If so, the at-fault party may be held accountable for your suffering.

Total Lost Income

You may be out of work for several weeks or months as you recover from the accident. Not drawing a paycheck can hurt you financially. As such, you may be entitled to recovering damages such as:

  • Lost wages
  • Loss of employment opportunities
  • Diminished future earning capacity/disability
  • Potential tips or bonuses
  • Lost benefits (retirement/insurance)

Our lawyers can estimate the value of your claim based on your total lost wages, benefits, and overall income. We may be able to work with your employer to get an accurate estimate.

Loss of Companionship or Parental Support

If you are disabled or disfigured due to the accident, you may no longer be able to provide spousal companionship or support to your parents.

The total amount of damages that you may claim depends on the circumstances of the accident, who is at fault, and the extent of your injuries and other losses.

Call Our Law Firm Today for Assistance With Your Case

Morelli Law Firm understands the physical pain and mental stress that occurs after a car accident. A New Rochelle car accident lawyer from our firm may be able to manage your case while you concentrate on your recovery.

Do not delay if you are considering legal action in your case. New York Civil Practice Law & Rules Section 214 imposes a three-year statute of limitations on most personal injury cases. Some circumstances could make for sooner deadlines in your case, such as GMU Section 50-E for actions against a public corporation.

To discuss what legal deadlines pertain in your case, our law firm at (212) 751-9800. A no-obligation case assessment with a member of our team is free.
