Did you know that in 2017, according to the National Safety Council, there were over 4.5 million doctor-consulted motor vehicle injuries? In fact, approximately two million of those car accidents resulted in permanent injuries.

When you’re injured in a car or truck accident, the whole situation can seem overwhelming. Who do you turn to? Who pays your medical bills? You’re bound to have countless questions as to what should happen next.

And please note, if you take anything away from reading this, it should be that you need an experienced attorney on your side. Do not – for any reason – accept a quick settlement from the insurance company. No one other than your attorney is going to be looking out for your best interest. It’s as simple as that.

Your Car and Trucking Accident Questions Answered by Experienced MS Attorneys

In order to be better prepared on how to handle your car or trucking accident, we want to ensure your most frequently asked questions are answered so that you have the best possible chance of getting the outcome you deserve.

Should I get an attorney after a car accident?

Although an insurance company will likely reach out to offer you a monetary amount after your car accident, it is always in your best interest to contact an experienced attorney who can advise you and ensure you’re receiving a fair amount.

Almost always, you’ll end up with more money with the assistance of an attorney. Therefore, it is never a bad idea to seek legal counsel when reaching an agreement of what you should be compensated after a car accident.

How much is my car accident case worth?

In order to know how much your case is really worth, you need to first undergo a medical evaluation to make sure you know exactly what your treatment plan will entail. Although some car accident victims might need physical therapy as part of their treatment plan, other accident victims might require multiple surgeries and physical therapy, among other medical services, in order to get back to normal.

When this is the case, settling too early in the process could mean you’re on your own if other issues or complications are found down the road. And, trust us, this is exactly why you do not want to rush the process.  

Who pays the medical bills after a car accident?

At first, your own personal health insurance is going to take over the payment of medical bills. However, once a settlement is reached or a verdict is given by the jury, insurance companies covering the person driving the vehicle at fault will pay back a portion of the money that your insurance company has already spent.
