Maison Law stands up for victims struck by careless drivers veering in and out of their own lanes on busy routes like Highway 99. Our lawyers make sure the right motorist takes responsibility and covers the victim’s medical bills, lost income, and the pain that’s left behind.
If you have been injured, please contact a Fresno Car Accident Lawyer for a free case review. It’s an informative, no-string-attached way to find out what your injury may be worth and how to hold a car insurance company fully responsible.
The Decision to Bring Your Case to a Lawyer
With a minor accident, you may come out fine, handling your case yourself. But when a serious injury is involved, the bills will be higher, and car insurers will be fighting you harder over your level of support. They may try to point the finger of blame at you so they can get away with rejecting your claim. They may also downplay how badly you are hurt, so they can offer you much less in a settlement.
Maison Law would fully investigate the accident and use the evidence to build a strong case that couldn’t be disputed by shady insurance adjusters. Maison Law can also turn to accident reconstruction teams to show exactly whose mistake in a lane caused a collision.
A Maison Law Attorney would often provide a critical boost to your recovery support when you were dealing with these and other serious injuries:
- An accident involving a fracture, such as a hand fracture or a broken ankle bone
- An accident involving a Traumatic Brain Injury, including a serious concussion
- An accident involving a neck injury, including a serious case of whiplash
- An accident involving a back injury with pain that doesn’t go away after a few days
- A merging accident resulting in a permanent physical disability
- An accident involving an injury to your child or another family member
- A fatal accident that claimed the life of your loved one.
You can always file an injury claim on your own. However, when taking on giant car insurance companies, an experienced lawyer with great negotiation skills is often able to earn you much more than you could earn yourself.
Ask a Lawyer About Your Case
You may wonder how good a chance you have to secure support from a giant car insurance provider. You may wonder if filing a claim is worth the trouble. An experienced Fresno attorney, who has handled many car accident cases before, can answer those questions better than anyone.
Contact us to schedule a free case review. It’s the best and easiest way to learn what your injury could be worth and how to force insurers to accept full blame and liability. There’s no obligation for this meeting. However, if you decide we can help you earn more, you don’t need any money to get started. We don’t charge anything unless we win your case for you. Then our fee comes out of a settlement check that a car insurance company must write.
Support for Lane Drifting Accident Victims
Maison Law of Fresno gets aggressive on behalf of our clients. We demand financial restitution for every damage victims have been put through.
That must include the pain they’ve had to endure and the emotional trauma they’ve had to cope with after a violent crash. The distress suffered over an injury that limited what they could do for weeks or months must be addressed.
Your attorney can ask for compensation for some factors that victims may not have known could be part of a settlement check:
- Your current hospital bills now and any expected in the future.
- All estimated costs for care associated with a long-term injury or permanent disability.
- The physical pain and emotional distress you suffer through recovery.
- Your lost wages while missing valuable hours at work as you heal.
- Travel costs associated with your care. These costs can be considerable when you are on crutches or in a wheelchair and unable to drive.
- Wrongful death benefits. Families who lose a loved one in an unsafe lane change violation accident seek support for funeral costs and the income the deceased can no longer provide.
Lane drifting on some streets can mean crossing yellow lines and heading straight toward oncoming traffic. These mistakes might cause a devastating head-on collision. This type of crash has a higher chance of having deadly consequences because the speeds of both cars are factored into the impact. Victims inside both vehicles can be exposed to more life-threatening force.
The families of victims might need help facing a future without the economic assistance and emotional support the victim had always provided. A skilled Fresno Wrongful Death Lawyer can represent the family. The first step is to make sure a victim isn’t blamed for an accident caused by someone else. Then our attorneys would demand the maximum in support for loved ones, like a spouse and children, left behind.
The Lane Errors that Lead to Fresno Accidents
These are some common mistakes made by local drivers that lead to lane carelessness and collisions:
- Drivers who fall asleep and drift into oncoming traffic on unseparated roads, such as Clinton Avenue.
- Drivers who daydream and drift out of a lane, unaware on straight roads like Route 180.
- Distracted drivers (perhaps texting) and not watching where SUVs are headed.
- Drunk drivers. Drivers who have consumed alcohol and can’t keep their vehicles going straight. Other motorists may not have a warning and may not have time to dodge someone.
- Drivers veering over on motorcyclists and into bicycle lanes.
- Merging drivers. Motorists trying to join traffic on a highway like 99 and recklessly veering between lines as they try to find space to merge.
- Drivers making unsafe attempts to pass other vehicles.
- Big rigs. Semis, delivery vans, and produce trucks sent out from local businesses and farms, and on roads that are too narrow to keep a payload in one lane.
These are all mistakes that can leave a careless driver responsible for car damage and injuries. But proving the driver left a lane, or was drowsy, or was on a cellphone, can be more difficult.
A skilled attorney would conduct a full investigation into the accident to prove how it occurred and who should be accountable. Maison Law can also depend on accident reconstruction teams to document the crash site and show what actually happened.
