Representing Tucson Arizona Car Accident Victims Injured by Distracted Drivers
We have all seen them on I-10, driving down Speedway or Kolb Road — chatting or texting on their cell phones while driving; or eating and fiddling with the radio. While Arizona legislators recognize the dangers of talking and texting, there is no law in our state prohibiting this dangerous habit, and no sanctions yet.
If you are injured in a car accident by a driver who was texting or talking on the phone, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries. Turn to an experienced personal injury attorney — someone who can protect your rights as an injured victim, zealously pursue compensation, and look out for your best interests throughout the process.
The attorneys at The Hameroff Law Firm, P.C. have more than 25 years of experience in personal injury law. Contact us today at info@hamerlaw.com The Hameroff Law Firm, P.C. today for a confidential consultation in our Tucson law offices.
At-Fault Insurance Coverage
Arizona is an at fault state. That means that if you have an accident in Arizona, the negligent party’s insurance company will pay out according to the fault or liability of each driver. Typically, distracted drivers carry a heavier degree of fault.
When we accept a personal injury claim, we investigate the accident thoroughly in order to build a strong case. Our attorneys obtain a copy of the police report, and confer with witnesses in order to establish negligence.
The Dangers of Distracted Driving
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, distracted drivers caused nearly 6,000 fatalities in 2008, with more than 500,000 injuries. Car accident injuries caused by distracted drivers run the gamut from mild to extremely serious, including:
- Soft tissue injuries, such as whiplash, sprains and strains
- Fractures and broken bones
- Scarring and disfigurement
- Spinal cord injuries
- Brain injuries
- Catastrophic injuries
If you have been injured by a distracted driver, you deserve compensation for the wrongful actions of a careless motorist. Money damages may include medical expenses, lost income, and related accident expenses. We also handle wrongful death claims for the loss of a loved one.
