Why You Need a Personal Injury Lawyer to Help Fight the Insurance Company After a TBI

We don’t often think about the brain and the hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of different ways we use it every day. But break down each part of your day into its component parts and you begin to see just how much your brain does for us.

Even making your morning coffee becomes a multi-faceted, complex operation your brain runs each and every day. Even more fundamental than that, your brain directs your body to do numerous things that we never even think about: it makes sure that you breathe, it tells your heart to beat, and it directs your body to digest the food that you eat.

So what happens when you or someone you love suffers a traumatic brain injury (TBI), affecting your brain’s ability to function? […]

What is Road Rage?

Is Road Rage Dangerous?

Emotions get the best of all of us at times, but when driving on the road, we have a responsibility to use good judgement, composure, and respect amongst fellow drivers and pedestrians. It is tempting to get angry or upset when someone clearly cuts you off or abruptly changes lanes without signaling, and that same anger can tempt you to start raging at someone and practicing reckless driving. Giving into your emotions in the heat of the moment can intensify the danger of an already precarious situation; often termed as “road rage,” aggressive retaliation on the road can trigger a series of dangerous, and even deadly, consequences. With all of this in mind, there are safe practices to manage your frustration and to be on the alert for when sharing the road with aggressive drivers.

If you were involved in a car accident with a driver suffering from road rage, […]

Should I Accept the First Insurance Settlement After a Scranton Car Accident?

The Insurance Company Offered a Settlement. Should I Take It?

After an automobile accident, you are likely to be experiencing a great deal of physical pain and emotional distress. You may be tempted to immediately accept the first offer from the other driver’s insurance company to put the car accident behind you as quickly as possible. However, this is almost never a good idea.

An insurance company is necessarily looking first and foremost to its own bottom line, and not to what would be fair compensation for you. The insurance company makes money by keeping its payouts as low as possible, and can take advantage of your desire for a speedy resolution to make you a low settlement offer that does not provide a fair settlement for your personal injury.

If you have questions about a car accident settlement, your first step is to contact an experienced car accident lawyer at Munley Law Personal Injury Attorneys. […]

What is the Truck Accident Claim Process?

What Happens After a Trucking Accident?

Should I Accept the Insurance Company’s Offer After a Truck Accident?

Should I Take the Insurance Company’s Settlement?

Truck accidents are complex, multi-faceted, traumatic, and emotionally draining events for all parties involved — especially truck accident victims. If you or your loved one has fallen victim to such a devastating occurrence, there is evidence to scrutinize, truck logs to detail, mechanical efficacies to validate, and liability to determine.

Big trucking companies have built-in insurance company representatives who are trained to empathize and to negotiate an early settlement offer with you. You are likely to endure more injuries and expenses than you originally thought, and once you formally agree and accept an insurance settlement offer, you cannot later act on second thoughts; further negotiations are considered off the table.

This all leads to why you should never be hasty to accept an initial offer that an insurance company makes — the best way to protect your rights after a truck accident is to make sure you don’t speak with the insurance company until you first speak with an experienced truck accident lawyer at Munley Law Personal Injury Attorneys who will defend your rights and ensure that you are fairly compensated.

Why Is My Car Accident Settlement Taking So Long?

Sitting around and waiting for your case to settle can be frustrating. It may feel as though you are not being prioritized, or that you’ve been forgotten, but that is not the case. Asking, “Why is this taking so long?” is valid but cannot be easily answered.

The process of settling a case is complex, intricate, and includes many working parts that take time. In some cases, a car accident claim may have to go to court because both parties cannot reach an agreement. This can make the whole process even longer. An important fact to remember is that every case is unique; therefore, the amount of time it takes for a case to settle is unique. Although easier said than done, it is important to stay as patient as possible when waiting for your settlement.

Speeding Accident Lawyer

Car Accident Lawyers Helping Victims of Speeding-Related Crashes

Speeding causes thousands of deadly crashes every year. Excessive speed increases the likelihood that a driver will lose control of their vehicle and cause a crash. What’s more, collisions that occur at a high rate of speed result in more injuries and are more likely to be fatal.

If you were injured in a car accident with a driver who was speeding or driving aggressively, that driver should be held responsible for the harm they’ve caused. However, you will still need to prove that the other driver was at fault for the crash and the economic and noneconomic damages you have suffered. Even if your case seems straightforward, insurance companies are unlikely to provide maximum compensation unless you have legal representation. That’s where a car accident lawyer at Munley Law Personal Injury Attorneys can make a big difference.  […]
