Smyrna Texting And Driving Accident Lawyer

Drivers who text or operate their mobile electronic devices behind the wheel of an automobile are contributing to an incredibly dangerous act that claims many lives each year. The allure of electronic devices is pervasive in the modern world, leading many drivers to take their habit too far. When a driver operates a cellphone to send text messages, read directions, or change their music while driving, they may not realize the fact that their device decimates their ability to pay attention to the road. These brief moments of distraction are often enough to cause damaging collisions with other vehicles, pedestrians, and bicyclists.

If you were involved in an accident caused by another driver texting and driving, then you may be owed compensation. A Smyrna texting and driving accident lawyer from Ghai Law Firm will investigate the details of the accident to determine who was liable for the collision. Following this process, our legal team will pursue any forms of compensation to which you may be entitled. Call us today at (770) 792-1000 to speak to a member of our legal team about your situation.

Seeking Justice After an Accident Caused by a Driver Who was Texting While Driving

There are many details to pin down after an automobile accident. Even if texting is suspected in an accident, lawyers must be able to prove this as they establish liable parties. As part of this process, lawyers may collect forms of evidence such as:

  • Cellphone records from carriers
  • Reports gathered from police officers
  • Eyewitness testimonies from onlookers
  • Photo and video evidence captured by nearby surveillance and dashboard cameras

These forms of evidence help legal teams to establish clear liability. At this point, lawyers will enter negotiations with other parties and their insurance companies. When you have a legal team on your side, they will handle all of these communications on your behalf. Trying to negotiate for a settlement with a car insurance company can be difficult, as they often aim to deny claims using an array of tactics. Lawyers can relieve you of this process by corresponding with all insurance companies and other parties for you.

The Dangers of Texting and Driving

Modern smartphones and tablets have woven themselves into nearly every aspect of our lives. Drivers often use this as an excuse when they are operating devices behind the wheel. Some drivers may think their actions are innocent, as they are only trying to check directions or respond to friends. While their intentions may be pure, the risks of operating an electronic device while driving are simply too serious to ignore. Similar to alcohol intoxication, electronic devices can quickly and completely impair a driver’s attention, leading to critical driving errors known to cause serious personal injuries, property damage, and wrongful death.

Drivers distracted by their cell phones and electronic devices do not only put themselves and other drivers in danger, pedestrians and bicycle riders also face risks as a result of a driver’s lapse in attention. As the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) states, “In 2017 there were 599 nonoccupants (pedestrians, bicyclists, and others) killed in distraction-affected crashes.” These numbers showcase the widespread dangers of texting and driving. Many states have strict laws in place to punish drivers who are found guilty of operating their electronic devices behind the wheel. When you consult with legal counsel after an accident, they will usually work with local law enforcement agents to establish a liable party.

A Smyrna texting and driving accident lawyer from Ghai Law Firm will take up the fight for justice on your behalf. We will seek to hold any liable parties accountable for their negligent actions. We will also communicate with any involved parties on your behalf so you can invest your energy into your recovery process. Call our office today at (770) 792-1000 to learn more.

Personal Injuries Sustained in Texting and Driving Accidents

Injuries are common in automobile accidents caused by texting drivers. High speeds and multiple vehicles often overlap to create major collisions. Concussions, broken bones, and disfigurement are all common in these accidents. Car accidents are a popular cause of neck injuries such as whiplash. Whiplash occurs when the neck is forced into a whip-like motion from a sudden impact like those experienced in automobile collisions. The University of Rochester Medical Center shows that whiplash injuries are known to cause several complications such as dizziness, back pain, irritability, and numbness in hands and arms. Although each case of whiplash carries its own unique set of symptoms, victims should always take a whiplash injury seriously.

If left undiagnosed and untreated, whiplash can lead to more serious complications with the back, shoulders, neck, and spinal column. Dealing with these injuries and others can be both emotionally and financially exhausting. When you have a lawyer by your side, they will seek to recover any forms of compensation that you may be owed to cover the costs of your medical bills and other damages.
