Dayton Auto Accident Lawyers

If you have been injured by another driver’s negligence, the path forward toward recovery can be daunting. Obtaining the compensation to which you are entitled, however, can help considerably. If this is the difficult situation you find yourself in, don’t wait to consult with an experienced Dayton auto accident lawyer. 

Car Accident Claims

Car accidents are often caused by driver negligence, and car accident claims are predicated on this negligence. In fact, your auto accident claim must include all the following elements:

• The at-fault driver owed you a duty of care (every motorist on the road owes everyone else on it a considerable duty of care – or responsibility). 
• The at-fault driver breached this duty of care (this is where driver negligence rears its ugly head).
• The at-fault driver’s negligence was the direct cause of the accident that caused you to be injured.
• The injuries you endured caused you to suffer legal damages or losses. 

Let’s take a closer look. 

Your Car Accident Claim

Driver negligence can take many dangerous forms, including any one of the following:

• Distraction
• Impairment
• Exhaustion
• Aggression
• Excess speed
• Failure to follow the rules of the road

If the at-fault driver engaged in one of these forms of negligence and this negligence was the direct cause of the accident that caused you to be injured, the first three elements of your claim are met. The driver owed you the same duty of care that he or she owed everyone else on the road; his or her negligence is a breach of that duty; and the fact that his or her negligence caused the accident in question fulfills the third element. The final element is your legal damages, and this means that you suffered losses that are addressed by the law. 

Your Damages

The losses covered by the law include both economic and non-economic damages that can include:

• Property damage to your vehicle
• Your medical expenses, which can be extensive and, if your injuries are serious, may be ongoing
• Your lost earnings, which can include lost earning potential
• Your pain and suffering, which refers to the physical and psychic pain you experience in response to the violent car accident that left you injured 

In order to regain your health and well-being to the fullest extent possible, ensuring that your auto accident claim carefully addresses your physical, financial, and emotional damages in their entirety is imperative, and this is a job that is best left in the very capable hands of your dedicated auto accident lawyer.
