If you were injured in a car collision - Rear End, Head-On, Sideswipe, Etc. - you should contact a Middletown personal injury attorney. Contacting a lawyer that handles car accident cases in Middletown is the first step toward recovering everything you are entitled to under the law.
Middletown is home to Wesleyan University, a thriving local economy, and an environment considered to be one of the top places to raise a family in Connecticut. Whether you drive through the revitalized downtown area or commute on I-95, it is possible for unexpected collisions to happen in many ways. If you are hurt in such an incident, you need to speak with a Middletown car accident lawyer at your first opportunity.
Buckley Wynne Parese has been representing injured clients in Middletown and surrounding communities of Connecticut for over 140 years. Our attorneys have extensive experience handling car accident cases, and we have successfully secured many substantial case awards for past clients. If you believe another driver caused your recent accident in Middletown, our team can help you hold them accountable for the damages they caused.
According to data collected by the Connecticut Crash Data Repository, nearly 1,600 motor vehicle accidents happened in Middletown during 2024. Most of these accidents happen because of driver negligence, such as moving violations, distracted driving, or speeding, but alcohol is another major contributing factor to car accidents in Connecticut each year. A recent report states that about one-third of fatal accidents in 2022 were caused by alcohol.
The National Safety Council reported that more than 46,000 people died in car accidents throughout the United States in 2022, and there were more than five million medically consulted injuries reported throughout the country due to motor vehicle accidents. The total cost of damages resulting from motor vehicle accidents in the United States in 2022 amounted to more than $480 billion.
Connecticut is an at-fault state for motor vehicle accidents, so you must prove fault for your accident before you can recover compensation for your damages. Having an experienced Middletown car accident lawyer representing you will make building your case much easier, and you will also have a greater chance of maximizing your total compensation.
Your Middletown car accident lawyer can gather the evidence you will need to prove liability for your recent accident. Many forms of physical and digital evidence could come into play in your case, including cell phone records, vehicle computer data, traffic camera footage, if available, and the police report from the accident. Your attorney can also obtain statements from any witnesses who saw your accident happen.
Once you have established the cause of your accident, you can proceed with claiming compensation for your damages. Motor vehicle accidents often cause severe injuries like broken bones, soft tissue damage, traumatic brain injuries, and internal injuries. Victims may also suffer other losses, such as the cost of repairing or replacing their vehicle and lost wages if they cannot work while they recover.
Your first option for recovering compensation for your damages after a car accident is usually to file a claim with the defendant’s auto insurance carrier. Every driver in Connecticut is required to have auto insurance that meets minimum coverage requirements for bodily injury liability and property damage liability. When a driver causes an accident, their policy can pay for resulting damages up to the coverage limits they have purchased.
Unfortunately, many injured accident victims encounter unexpected complications with their insurance claims. Most insurers will do everything they can to deny or devalue claims for compensation after motor vehicle accidents. An insurance adjuster may attempt to use your own words against you, so it’s a good idea to avoid discussing your claim with an insurance company until you have legal representation on your side.
An experienced Middletown car accident lawyer can resolve any disputes you encounter with the at-fault driver’s insurance carrier and ensure you receive a fair settlement offer. The attorneys at Buckley Wynne Parese have years of experience resolving auto insurance claims for Connecticut clients, and we know the tactics insurers often use against injured drivers. We will do everything we can to secure the settlement you deserve.
If you need to file a personal injury case to recover from your accident, you are more likely to achieve success with an experienced Middletown car accident lawyer representing you. To win your case, you will need to prove how the defendant caused your accident and show the full extent of the damages you suffered because of their actions.
A successful personal injury case may yield compensation for your economic damages, such as vehicle repair costs, medical bills, and the income you cannot earn while you recover. You have the right to seek compensation for your pain and suffering. It may sound difficult to determine appropriate monetary compensation for physical pain and emotional suffering, but your attorney can determine a suitable amount based on the severity of your injuries.
Ultimately, every car accident case in Middletown has the potential to present complex legal challenges, and the injured plaintiff will need an experienced attorney on their side to help them maximize their recovery. Your Middletown car accident lawyer can gather the evidence you need to prove fault, assess the full scope of your claimable damages, and guide you through your legal proceedings with confidence.
The attorneys at Buckley Wynne Parese can provide the legal representation you need on a contingency fee basis, meaning there will be no fee unless and until we recover compensation for your damages. Instead of charging a client any upfront or ongoing fees for legal representation, we charge a percentage of the total compensation we recover for them, and we only charge this fee if we win their case. If there is no recovery, there is no fee.
You have limited time to build a car accident case in Middletown, and the evidence you need to prove fault may not be available for long. If you believe you have grounds to file a car accident case in Middletown, we can help. Contact Buckley Wynne Parese today to schedule a free consultation with an experienced Middletown car accident lawyer.
