London, Laurel County Law Firm Works With You on Your Car Accident Case

Were You Injured in a Car Accident in Kentucky?

Whether you were involved in a fender-bender or a serious collision, consulting with a personal injury attorney after an accident is never a bad idea. Negotiating an insurance settlement after an accident, especially when you are injured due to a negligent driver, is a difficult and time-consuming process. You might be tempted to take the first settlement offered. Don’t make this mistake.

Insurance representatives work for the company — not for you. They offer the lowest amount possible at first, hoping you will accept and the matter will be closed. The truth is, you don’t know the extent of your injuries right after an accident. Some injuries take a while to manifest. Before speaking to any insurance company or agreeing to any settlement, speak to the car accident lawyers at Copeland & Romines Law Office, serving Laurel County in Kentucky. We’re here to deal with the insurance companies and even go to court on your behalf.

Common Causes of Car Accidents

Understanding the cause of your accident helps you and your personal injury attorney understand who (or what) was responsible for your accident. Getting the details of what happened down on paper immediately following your accident — as soon as you are able — helps ensure you get everything right and remember the finer points of what happened. Your memory gets fuzzier as time passes.

Here are some of the more common causes of auto accidents.

• Distracted driving, such as texting, eating, talking on phone, or other activities behind the wheel
• Driving while intoxicated or under the influence
• Drowsy driving
• Reckless driving (including speeding or “road rage” incidents)
• Badly-designed roadways
• Bad weather conditions
• Mechanical failure

If you suffer injury in a car accident due to any of the above causes — or another reason — talk to a personal injury lawyer to find out if you are due compensation.
