Your Right to Compensation

After a car accident, considering taking legal action is not your first concern. However, the legal matter of seeking compensation can soon become a serious problem. The cost of emergency medical care, surgeries, and other treatments is exceptionally expensive, often ranging into the hundreds of thousands within just weeks.

The injured person can no longer work and may never again enjoy the quality of life they had before the accident. A car accident attorney in Burlington from Horn Wright, LLP, should review the facts in the case as early as possible after the accident. It is imperative that evidence is obtained and preserved before it is lost or destroyed. Our team of attorneys has a remarkable record of success in difficult cases and can review and evaluate your case and advise you how to proceed.

Settlement or Lawsuit?

The majority of car accident cases are settled out of court. However, in some cases, filing a lawsuit is necessary. When an insurance company fails to make a fair settlement offer, our team of trial lawyers can file a lawsuit to pursue fair compensation. As talented litigators, we are comfortable and confident in court, and carefully and thoroughly prepare for trial.

• Economic damages: These damages include the cost of medical, hospital, and nursing care, rehabilitation, lost wages, lost earning capacity, and other similar losses.
