East Haven, CT Car Accident Lawyer

After being injured in an auto accident, you have a choice whether to hire an accident attorney or file with the insurance company on your own. There are many benefits to having a trusted East Haven personal injury lawyer on your side during this difficult time. Our fast-acting law firm can offer you legal advice, file all necessary paperwork, and handle all negotiations with the insurance company while you can focus on recovery.

Keep in mind that the other driver’s insurance company has a team of their own lawyers and adjusters who will be investigating your accident. They do not have your best interests at heart. Rather, their goal is to get you to settle for the least amount possible. Insurance companies may delay or deny your claim, or pressure you into accepting a quick payout that is worth less than your case is worth.

An East Haven personal injury attorney will know what your case is worth and can make sure that you aren’t taken advantage of by greedy insurance companies. We will act fast to investigate your accident and inform you of all possible payout options available to you. Our accident lawyers are able to handle most claim settlements fast and out of court, but we are ready to take your case to trial if necessary.

Motor vehicle accidents occur every day in Connecticut. Thankfully, most are minor and don’t cause much harm. However, some collisions are catastrophic, leaving victims with life-changing injuries. The majority of auto accidents are due to human error and could have easily been prevented if the drive had acted with care.

The following is a list of some of the many types of car accident claims the lawyers at Gould Injury Law firm have experience in handling:

• Distracted driving accidents: Distracted driving is one of the most common causes of car accidents. It can involve texting, talking on the phone, adjusting your GPS, eating, and anything else that takes your attention away from the road. If a distracted driver causes your accident, our fast and aggressive lawyers will work hard to hold the driver liable for his or her negligence.
• Speeding: It can be tempting to speed when you’re late picking your kids up from school or there was a traffic jam on your commute to New Haven, but speeding is never worth the risk. Speeding is a very common cause of accidents in Connecticut. It includes not only driving over the posted limit but also driving too fast for weather conditions such as rain, fog, or snow.
• Rear-end collisions: These are the most common types of car accidents in most states. While the rear driver is typically at fault, this is not always the case. Front drivers may be responsible for the auto accident if they cut off other vehicles, merge improperly, make unnecessary lane changes, or engage in other reckless forms of driving.
• Drunk driving accidents: Alcohol affects a person’s vision, judgment, reasoning, and cognitive abilities. If a driver in Connecticut is 21 or older has a blood alcohol level (BAC) of .08 or higher, he or she is considered to be legally intoxicated. If a person is under 21, he or she is legally intoxicated at .02 or higher. If you have been injured by a drunk driver, contact us today. You deserve fast justice and financial compensation.

The value of your claim will depend on the extent of your injuries and the facts surrounding the auto accident. A personal injury attorney who is familiar with Connecticut state law will be able to sit down with you and calculate what your claim is worth. Once we take on your case, our lawyers will act fast to seek compensation for you and your family.

You may be eligible to receive damages for:

• Medical bills
• Rehabilitation therapy
• Lost wages

• Short- or long-term disability
• Property damage
• Punitive damages
