Most car accident victims wonder whether they have any legal recourse to seek compensation for their losses. Frequently, what many of us refer to as car accidents are not accidents at all, but are caused by the negligence, carelessness, or recklessness of another party. That may include someone driving under the influence, texting while driving, following too closely, speeding, or a number of other causes. A dedicated New York attorney at the Bulldog Law Group has extensive experience litigating these types of cases, with knowledge of the types of issues to explore when filing your claim, which can range from flawed vehicle designs and defective car parts — such as defective or dangerous engine components, seat belts, airbags, tires, brakes, and steering systems – to drivers who fail to keep their vehicles properly maintained and serviced. Other types of accidents include those involving large trucks, which logged nearly 4,000 deaths and more than 100,000 injuries nationwide.
Combined, these defects and careless drivers contribute to thousands upon thousands of injuries every year. Attorneys keep insurance companies responsible for the harm their drivers cause. That is why legal action is so important – it levels the playing field between accident victims and billion-dollar corporations.
How a New York Car Accident Lawyer Can Help
Every case is unique in terms of the applicable law and how the law will apply to your facts. Every case has its own merits that must be recognized in terms of what the cause of the accident was, what the at-fault party did or didn’t do, if they violated any traffic law, and the types of injuries and resulting medical treatment.
Every case is unique and every case is individual, just like the victims we serve. An experienced Bulldog Law Group attorney will handle all of your issues from the inception of the case through resolution. They will prove that the other party caused the accident as a result of negligence. It’s important to get the attorney involved as early as possible, because the attorney can advise the injured party as to the best way to move forward in navigating all of the issues in a case.
In addition, the attorney can investigate the accident. Often enough, if medical treatment is refused on the scene, there won’t be a lot of investigation by the police officer, just an exchange of information and the police officer will write a report of the accident scene. If that’s the case, it’s important for the attorney to get an investigator involved early to investigate the accident, locate witnesses, and conduct an independent investigation to help substantiate what will have to be proven in the case. As the injured party and the plaintiff in a court case, it is our burden to prove everything, which means the more evidence we have, and the earlier we have it, the better it is for the case.

According to the United States Census Bureau, more than 10 million auto accidents occurred each year across the country from 1990 to 2009. During that same time frame, more than 35,000 deaths were logged within one year of an auto collision. And according to the National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration, motor vehicle crashes increased in 2012, following a six year national decline. Car accidents often result in property damage, but more importantly, they can cause personal injury from the force of collisions (e.g., whiplash) or even death.
