Car Accident Lawyers
Madison Wisconsin Auto Accident Attorneys
Car Accident Claims
Nearly everyone is involved in a car accident at some point in their life. While a car accident happens suddenly and is over in a matter of seconds, survivors can suffer the consequences for the rest of their lives. While the severity of your injuries and your long-term costs may not be apparent at the time of the accident or shortly thereafter, our Madison Wisconsin car accident attorneys will work to ensure that you receive the full compensation you need and deserve.
Insurance
The insurance company and its representatives are not your friends. No matter how kind and understanding the insurance adjuster may seem, his job is to help the insurance company reduce or reject your claim. Conversely, he may try to intimidate you into dropping your case or giving evidence which will hurt your case. You do need to report the accident to your own insurance company right away, but you should never give a statement to the insurance representatives of the other driver without consulting with you car accident lawyers first.
Although these cases typically settle out of court without going to trial, the Madison Wisconsin car accident lawyers of Boller & Vaughan LLC are ready and willing to take your case to trial if that is what it takes to get just compensation for your injuries. We have a proven track record of success in securing compensation far above and beyond what the insurance companies are willing to pay. For example, in one case we obtained a verdict on behalf of our client in excess of 20 times the amount that the insurance company had offered for a settlement.
Negligence
Negligence is at the heart of most car accidents. Negligence is the failure to use reasonable care. You do not need to prove intentional wrongdoing to win your case. Examples of negligence leading to car accidents include:
- Distractions such as cell phone use and texting
- Failure to observe traffic signals
- Excessive speed
- Failure to use turn signals
Other Causes
Other common causes of car accidents and car accident injuries include:
- Defective vehicle or defective parts, such as faulty tires
- Defective roadways, such as malfunctioning traffic signals
- Intentional misconduct, such as reckless driving
