How Can Morgan and Morgan Help?
At Morgan and Morgan, we offer free, no-obligation case evaluation. This evaluation helps establish whether you have a valid case against the other party. When we review your case, we will focus on details such as:
- When the accident occurred
- How the accident occurred
- Who was involved
- What caused the accident
- The injuries sustained
And so much more.
After the free case evaluation, one of our legal representatives will contact you to further discuss your case. And if you have a valid reason to file a claim or lawsuit against the other party, we might be able to guide you through the process.
What Kind of Evidence Do I Need to Prove My Case?
Getting injured in an I-64 wreck does not automatically guarantee your eligibility for compensation. Rather, the specifics of your case, particularly the evidence, will determine your eligibility. However, it is understandable that you may not be in a position to obtain evidence right after the accident.
This is especially true if you sustained serious injuries requiring immediate hospitalization. An experienced I-64 wreck lawyer can help collect crucial evidence about your case to prove your eligibility for compensation.
The kind of evidence that could be crucial in this case includes but is not limited to:
- Photos and videos of the accident scene
- Statements from witnesses
- Your medical records
- Police reports
- Skid marks
- Bodily injuries, etc.
Our attorneys can also assess the nature of your injuries and damages. This information will be crucial in calculating the amount of compensation you may be entitled to. Unfortunately, you may not understand the actual value of your case if you do not have an attorney fighting for you.
And when insurance companies realize you do not have an attorney, they might try to persuade you to sign the settlement as soon as possible. This is because they know that once you sign the agreement, you cannot reopen the claim even if you later discover that you were entitled to more than you accepted.
Additionally, Morgan and Morgan attorneys can help maximize your claim after assessing your injuries and damages. We do this to ensure you receive the compensation you need and deserve.
What Legal Strategy Do I Need to Win My Case?
Having a legal strategy significantly increases your chances of winning the case. For example, Morgan and Morgan car wreck attorneys know how insurance companies operate. This knowledge stems from years of dealing with these companies. As a result, our attorneys can predict various outcomes, enabling them to prepare well in advance.
In some cases, it may be necessary to consult experts to strengthen your case. The truth is that attorneys do not know everything. But teaming up with experts is what makes them powerful.
Say, for example, you suffered serious injuries requiring surgery. A professional doctor can help provide further insight into these injuries, especially if the other party disputes their existence or the likelihood that their insured was responsible. These are just some of the different legal strategies the attorney might be able to devise to boost your chances of winning the case.
Will Morgan and Morgan Negotiate With the Insurance Company On My Behalf?
The strength of your case does not matter if you are not a skilled negotiator. Similarly, your negotiation skills will not matter if you have a weak case. These two go hand in hand.
At Morgan and Morgan, our attorneys are good at negotiating with insurance companies on behalf of their clients. This ensures that our clients receive fair compensation following their injuries caused by an I-64 wreck.
What Happens if the Insurance Company Refuses to Settle?
There is no guarantee that the other party will be willing to negotiate out of court. If that happens, our attorneys will pursue other options, including filing a lawsuit on your behalf. This brings the case before a judge or jury, who will then make a ruling based on the facts availed to them. And if you lose the case for any reason, we might be able to file an appeal on your behalf and fight even harder to protect your rights and interests.
What Should I Look for in an I-64 Wreck Lawyer?
When looking for an I-64 attorney, consider the following factors:
Experience
It is important that you work with an attorney who is experienced in handling these cases. An experienced attorney can help fight for you in ways an inexperienced attorney cannot. For example, since I-64 accidents usually cause serious injuries, there is always a high chance that the other party's insurance company will not want to compensate the victims for the actual value of their case.
It is even more complicated when someone dies. If so, the case shifts from a standard car accident case to a wrongful death case, which requires a different approach.
At Morgan and Morgan, we have more than 30 years of experience fighting for the rights of individuals injured or killed in car accidents along I-64. As a result, we know what is at stake in these kinds of cases, which is why we always come prepared for every scenario. For example, our legal team comprises attorneys who specialize in different areas of injury, such as product liability, wrongful death, and car accidents, meaning you get the best legal representation all under one roof.
The primary goal of filing a car accident lawsuit or claim is to seek compensation for your injuries. Therefore, you need an attorney or law firm with a proven record of winning such cases. This is not the time to give just anybody a chance to represent you. There is so much at stake, and the last thing you want is to hire someone who will use your case as an experiment to test their competency.
Results
At Morgan and Morgan, our results speak for themselves. We have helped clients recover more than $20 billion as compensation for different injuries, including car accidents.
Another great benefit of hiring a law firm with proven results is that they will not accept just any settlement offer to close the case. Rather, they will fight to ensure that the compensation you receive reflects the true value of your case. That is what you get when you contact Morgan and Morgan for a free case evaluation.
Resources
Car accident cases are complex. For this reason, you need a law firm with powerful legal resources to fight for you. If the law firm or attorney has powerful resources, they will likely conduct thorough investigations to strengthen your case. On the contrary, law firms or attorneys that lack powerful resources may conduct shoddy investigations just to close the case and move on to the next. As a result, they may settle for less than what you truly deserve.
In-Court Experience
Many car wreck cases are settled out of court. There is no doubt about that. However, this does not mean that every insurance company you come across might be willing to negotiate a reasonable settlement. Some insurance companies would not mind going to court because they can afford some of the best defense attorneys to protect their interests.
Bear in mind that when you have a civil case against the other party, you are responsible for proving that you got injured due to their negligence. This concept is known as the burden of proof.
In most cases, the plaintiff bears the heavier burden of proof. This burden is even heavier when you live in a pure comparative negligence state. In such a state, all the defendant needs to prove is that you were somehow at fault for the accident. If they prove that, you will not be able to recover any compensation for your injuries. To put things into perspective, in a pure contributory negligence state, you cannot recover any compensation if you were even 1% at fault for the accident.
What Should I Do if Injured in an I-64 Wreck?
If injured in an I-64 wreck, here are some quick steps to guide you:
- Call 911 immediately and request a police officer and an ambulance at the scene
- Make sure you are in a safe location to protect yourself (or your loved ones) from oncoming traffic
- Take pictures or videos of the accident scene, the damages, or anything else that is relevant to your case
- Do not say you feel fine even if you do
- Do not accept responsibility for the accident even if you feel you are partly responsible
- Seek medical attention
- Follow your doctor's instructions
- Contact an experienced I-64 wreck attorney
How Much Is My Case Worth?
The actual value of your case will depend on the specifics of the case. This explains why it is important to contact Morgan and Morgan for a free case evaluation.
What Damages Can I Recover From My I-64 Car Wreck Case?
The damages you may be able to recover depend on the specifics of your case. Generally, you may be able to recover compensatory damages, which include economic and non-economic damages.
Examples of economic damages include medical expenses, caregiver costs, cost of transportation to and from your medical appointments, lost wages, loss of earning potential, etc. On the other hand, non-economic damages include pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, permanent disfigurement, etc. The court might also award you punitive damages if the defendant was grossly negligent.
How Much Does Hiring a Morgan and Morgan I-64 Wreck Lawyer Cost?
At Morgan and Morgan, we charge our clients on a contingency basis. This means they do not pay us any upfront fee. Instead, we deduct a small percentage from the settlement, usually between 30 to 40 percent, but only if we win.
