Recent Review:
Working with Nick turned what could’ve been the absolute worst situation into the best experience I could have under given circumstances. Nick was attentive and responsive to my thoughts and I truly felt heard and cared for during the entire process. Working through any legality issue or any kind of accident case at all can be a huge headache – but working with Nick really helped ease some of the stress. Thank you so much, Nick! I appreciate all the hard work and heart you put forward.

Inland Empire Car Accident Statistics 

In California, the Inland Empire consists of Riverside and San Bernardino Counties and a population of roughly 4.6 million people. In 2021, there were approximately 15,000 car accidents in each of the counties. Many of these accidents cause serious injuries and fatalities. The number of serious car accidents in the Inland Empire area has been increasing in recent years. Authorities have zeroed in on the pandemic as a contributing factor, as drivers took on more dangerous habits and retained them when motorists returned to the road. Drivers got used to reduced enforcement of traffic laws, and they continue to take more chances with the lives of others.

Common Causes of Inland Empire Car Accidents

All it takes is one momentary mistake that a driver makes to change the course of your life forever. Drivers may not even be careless. They may be consciously reckless, or they could get behind the wheel when they are drunk. Regardless of how the accident happened, you would be entitled to financial compensation when you were able to prove that the driver was negligent.

Some common causes of car accidents include:

  • Speeding (which was a factor in slightly more than 20% of car accidents)
  • Failure to check blind spots before changing lanes
  • Illegal turns
  • Drunk driving
  • Following too closely behind vehicles
  • Reckless driving
  • Distracted driving
  • Inexperienced motorists

A car accident attorney at Quincey Law could work to gather proof of what happens and the evidence that you need to win your case.

Damages in an Auto Accident

The insurance company is obligated to pay for the full amount of damages that their driver causes, up to the amount of the policy limit. If the other driver did not have enough insurance, you can file a claim with your own underinsured motorist coverage to make up for the shortfall.

Car accident damages can include the following:

  • Medical expenses
  • Lost wages
  • Property damage
  • Pain and suffering
  • Loss of enjoyment of life
  • Emotional distress
  • Scarring and disfigurement

Perhaps the most crucial thing in a motor vehicle crash case is to know how much your claim is worth before you file it, so you are able to effectively negotiate through your car accident attorney. 

How to Seek Compensation for a Car Crash

The other driver’s insurance company will always be involved in your claims process. Many car accident victims begin with the insurance company by filing a claim. You would need to include evidence of what happened to cause the crash and the other driver’s role in it. In addition, your claim would also include proof of your injuries and an amount of damages that you are seeking.

The insurance company will review your claim, and they will determine whether to accept liability. One possibility is that they may try to partially blame the crash on you. The insurance company may make you a settlement offer, but you could be forced to negotiate extensively because their offers may be low. Your car accident lawyer could negotiate your claim to get you top dollar for your injuries.

Of course, you always retain the right to file a lawsuit directly against the responsible driver in court. The insurance company would still be involved in the case because they have a duty to defend their policyholder. Even if you file a lawsuit, chances are that your case would reach a settlement before you actually had a trial.
