Dallas Car Accident Attorneys

Perrotta, Lamb & Johnson, LLC takes pride in offering contingency fees that are much lower than competing law firms. Many law offices set their contingency fee rates at 40% or 50%, which means you could give half of your total recovery to your attorney if you hire them. We strive to keep our contingency fee rates much, much lower. In fact, if you were given a contingency fee rate estimate from another firm in Dallas, then let us know, and we will see how much lower we can go than it.

Common Causes of Car Accidents

Our Dallas car accident lawyers know how to investigate claims to find the exact cause of the crash. The situation might feel confusing or challenging now, but we are confident that we can clear it up quickly thanks to our many years of experience.

In many cases, car accidents are caused by a driver who was:

• Speeding
• Distracted
• Texting
• Exhausted
• Intoxicated
• Making unsafe lane changes

We will want to look for various pieces of evidence to back our investigation and conclusion, too. The goal is to prove that you were not liable for the cause, which should mean that you can make the largest financial recovery possible.

Commonly Reported Injuries in Car Accident Claims

A car accident can result in serious, life-changing injuries in an instant. If you have been seriously injured in a crash, then you can’t waste time. The sooner that your claim is filed, the sooner you could get compensation to help pay for necessary medical treatments for your injuries.

We can even help connect you with medical professionals before your case concludes if you still need treatment but can’t afford it. Sometimes, medical providers will accept medical liens arranged with the help of an attorney. A medical lien essentially states that the medical provider will treat you for nothing upfront but will be paid later through your settlement or award.

Injuries often reported in car accident claims include:

• Whiplash
• Head injuries
• Brain injuries
• Back injuries
• Broken bones
• Deep lacerations
• Burn injuries
• Emotional trauma

How Georgia Determines Fault in Car Accidents

Georgia uses a comparative negligence rule when considering fault in car accident claims. Under this rule, you can make a recovery against a defendant as long as you were less liable than they were for the accident. In other words, if your liability is 50% or greater, then your claim could be denied by the court.

For this reason, it is crucial to work with a car accident attorney who knows how to collect and use evidence of liability. For example, statements from other drivers can be useful, as can dashcam footage and photographs taken at the scene. Let us piece the situation together to clearly define who is at fault.

Damages You Can Recover in a Claim

A car accident claim can help you feel like you got justice for what happened, which is often the first step in putting it behind you. However, don’t overlook the importance of getting compensated for your losses, which might only be possible with a successful injury claim. Our team from Perrotta, Lamb & Johnson, LLC would be honored to be the attorneys that you put in charge of getting the most compensation in your name.

Damages that you can recover through a car accident claim include:

• Past and future medical treatment costs
• Past and future lost wages
• Pain and suffering
• Permanent disability complications
• Lessened enjoyment of life
• Vehicle repairs (property damage claim)

You can also depend on us if you lost a loved one in a car accident. We know how to handle wrongful death claims to pursue compensation while allowing you to focus on taking care of yourself and your family in such a difficult time.
