      Why You Need an Experienced Car Accident Lawyer

      People who are injured in car accidents don’t only suffer the physical effects of their injuries, they also suffer the mental and financial aftermath as well. Depending on the severity of the injury that the individual suffered, they may not be able to return to work for an extended amount of time, if ever. If the injured victim is the sole income provider for their family, the expenses incurred as a result of the auto collision and subsequent injury can skyrocket in a relatively short amount of time, placing even more stress on the injured individual and their family.

      However, with the help of our qualified Maryland car accident attorneys, the negligent person whose decisions or actions played a contributing role in the crash can be held responsible and fair compensation can be garnered for the injured party.

      We’ve helped clients who have suffered:

      Proving Liability in Car Accident Cases

      As with other types of accidents, figuring out who is at fault is one of the most important elements to recovering compensation. Fault issues can be complicated but an experienced attorney will look at a number of sources, such as police reports, state traffic laws, and witnesses to help you determine who was at fault for your collision.

      Was the other driver texting or driving distractedly? Were there clues at the scene to show the other driver didn’t yield right-of-way? Was the other driver under the influence of drugs or alcohol?

      In some cases, the government agency in charge of maintaining the road may be at fault for poor road conditions or malfunctioning safety lights. The manufacturer of your vehicle can also be held liable for your accident if a product design or auto part was defective.

      There are many facets of every collision that should be explored and our qualified Maryland car accident attorneys will understand the importance of establishing liability for your accident.

      Settlement Negotiations with the Insurance Company

      Insurance companies are ultimately businesses looking to make a profit. It’s their goal to settle all claims quickly, and with the smallest payout possible. In some cases, the other driver may be underinsured or not insured at all. Whatever the situation, our skilled Maryland car accident attorneys at Alpert Schreyer, LLC can help you determine the best course of action.

      Before an insurance company adjuster will put a settlement offer on the table, the insurance company will need to accept liability for the accident. Your attorney will then need to submit a settlement demand package to the adjuster. A settlement demand package will include copies of all of your related medical records and bills and will contain a monetary demand for settlement. In some cases, the initial settlement demand may be the full amount of the available policy limits.

      The amount of the initial demand depends upon a variety of factors, including:

      • The policy limits
      • The amount of the medical bills
      • The amount of any lost wages incurred
      • Whether or not the accident victim sustained permanent injuries and damages
      • The nature of your injuries (e.g., soft tissue injuries versus fractures)
      • The extent of your pain, suffering, and other noneconomic damages
      • The need for future medical care and treatment

      Once the insurance company’s adjuster reviews the demand package, the adjuster may place a settlement offer on your case. Initial settlement offers are usually low because the insurance company wants to see if it can settle your case quickly and cheaply. Throughout settlement negotiations, the settlement demand gradually decreases, while the insurance company’s settlement offer generally increases. This process continues until the parties settle the case or reach an impasse and a lawsuit is filed.

      Recover the Compensation You Deserve with Alpert Schreyer, LLC

      In our 30+ years of service, we’ve helped thousands of people in Maryland recover the compensation they deserve. Our attorneys handle all cases on a contingency fee basis, so you pay nothing upfront and owe us nothing if we aren’t able to achieve satisfactory results.

      Our firm has offices across Maryland to best serve you no matter where your accident takes place:

      To set up your free case evaluation, call 301-381-2655 or contact us online.

      If you’re hesitant to reach out to an attorney after you’ve been in an accident, you should know that Alpert Schreyer, LLC operates on what’s called a contingency fee. What that means is we don’t get any fee upfront. Our fees come out of the backend, and we do not recover any fee unless we’re able to recover for you.

      So, it’s extremely important before you talk to the insurance company to give us a call for a free legal consultation to discuss the potential merits of your case, and that way you’re not settling your case for pennies on the dollar, which is what the insurance company ultimately wants.

      If you’re involved in a car accident, you might be wondering, can I recover my lost wages? The answer to that question is yes. What you need to do is reach out to an experienced personal injury attorney. We can walk you through those steps of documenting the wages that you lost as a result of someone else’s negligence. That does go into the damages and the full and fair compensation for your accident.

      So, it’s extremely important to give Alpert Schreyer, LLC a call. We operate on a contingency fee, meaning that we are not going to charge you unless we are able to recover for you; it will come out of the settlement. It’s no fee upfront, and we can give you a free legal consultation to discuss your options in your case.

      When you’re choosing a car accident injury attorney, it’s extremely important that you look them up online, just like you would any type of professional that you want to hire. Read the reviews, see the type of results that they get, and see what their experience is. When you’re talking with them, you should ask if they have handled a case like yours before. What types of outcomes have they received for their clients? Are they comfortable handling a case with catastrophic injuries if you have those types of injuries? Have they done it before? That’s why it’s really important to vet the attorney, determine if they’re a good fit for you, do your research on that attorney.

      Alpert Schreyer, LLC has a team of attorneys who will all be able to work on your case, and we’ll be able to make sure that we get you the best possible outcome of the case. So, give us a call for a free legal consultation. Do that before you talk to any insurance company.

      If you’ve been the victim of a car crash that’s a hit and run, meaning the defendant took off and you don’t know who they are, you may be wondering, “Can I recover from my injuries?” Well, the attorneys at Albert Schreyer, LLC understand this situation and will look at different avenues of recovery to help make sure that you are fully and fairly compensated for your injuries by phantom drivers or hit and runs.

      If you’re involved in a car accident and you’re injured, you’re certainly going to want to seek some medical treatment, and you might be wondering, who’s going to be responsible for these bills?

      Ultimately, that question can be complex. A personal injury attorney can assist you in determining whether you’re going to put the bills through your own car insurance, through the other side’s car insurance, or through your own health insurance, and it’s extremely important that you don’t just wing it.

      You should reach out to an attorney who knows what they’re doing, who knows how to navigate this complex legal system, and Alpert Schreyer, LLC offers free legal consultations. We can assist you in navigating this and getting you an amazing outcome.

      If you’re involved in a car accident and you don’t have a lawyer, there are some pitfalls that you want to avoid. For example, you may give a recorded statement to the insurance company. A lot of people will do that without knowing that that recorded statement could potentially hurt your case.

      A lot of times they’ll also talk with the adjuster. Those adjusters are trained to try to settle your case for pennies on the dollar before you even know what your injuries are.

      That’s why it’s really important to reach out to an experienced personal injury attorney who will be able to evaluate your case based off of what your injuries are, based off how bad that crash was, and help you get full and fair compensation for your case. Give Alpert Schreyer, LLC a call. We can offer free consultations to talk about your case.

      One of the things we often see is a client comes in and tells us the car that hit them didn’t have insurance. How are they able to recover for their injuries? Well, the attorneys at Alpert Schreyer, LLC, who were experienced in these matters, are able to find other avenues of recovery to make sure that you receive full and fair compensation for your injuries.

      One of the things I sometimes see is a client comes in who’s been in a car crash through no fault of their own, but the police officers said that they were at fault. Well, they ask us, “Do I have a case?” And the answer is yes. Just because a police officer said that they think that you’re at fault doesn’t make it true. The attorneys at Alpert Schreyer, LLC will listen to you, understand fully what happened, and fight for you to get full and fair compensation from the at-fault party.

      When you’re involved in a car accident, the first thing some people do is reach out to their insurance company, and that’s not always the best idea. It’s important first to reach out to a personal injury attorney that specializes in handling car accident cases. The insurance company will want to give you a recorded statement, and when you do that, you may inadvertently hurt your case.

      Maryland has a law in the state called contributory negligence, which only a handful of states has. Contributory negligence means the insurance company can show that if you’re even one percent at fault in this accident, it completely bars any recovery. They would love nothing more than to get off the hook for your injuries.

      So, it’s extremely important that before you make any statements to the insurance company, give Alpert Schreyer, LLC a call. We’ll do a free consultation and we can discuss your case, and then we could talk about potentially sitting down with the insurance company to give a recorded statement.

      If you’ve been involved in a car accident claim, you might be wondering, “How long is my case going to take?” and it’s a very good question. But it’s also a very complicated question, and it’s almost impossible to answer at the outset of your case. These cases can last months, or they can last years. It depends on a number of factors including the severity of the injury, the jurisdiction, and whether the insurance company wants to make a fair and reasonable settlement.

      What you shouldn’t be wondering necessarily is, “How long is it going to take?” What you should be wondering is, “Is my attorney going to fight hard for me to get the best possible outcome?” So, it’s very important that you choose wisely when selecting your attorney, and Alpert Schreyer, LLC has a number of extremely experienced car accident attorneys. You should give us a call immediately for a free legal consultation. Do not wait. Do not allow the insurance company to settle your case for less than the full and fair value that it deserves.

      If you’re involved in a car accident or a personal injury case, you might be wondering “what is the value of my case?” That’s an extremely complex question that will probably not be able to be answered at the outset, but there’s a number of factors that we consider.

      Is there a clear liability? Was it the other person’s fault and not your fault? Where did it happen? Another question that we consider is, what are the nature and extent of your injuries? Is this a back sprain that’s going to resolve in two to three months? Or is this a catastrophic permanent injury that you’re going to be living with for the rest of your life? These things drive the value of cases as well as the size of the policy, the insurance policy in place.

      So, while the insurance companies might talk about being your neighbor or that you’re in good hands, ultimately they’re not your friend and they want to settle your case for pennies on the dollar or less than the full fair value. That’s why it’s extremely important that you reach out to a competent personal injury attorney.

      Alpert Schreyer, LLC offers free legal consultations and we operate on what’s called a contingency fee. What that means is there’s no legal fees unless we’re able to recover for you. There’s no out-of-pocket cost for you. Give us a call and we’ll schedule you for a free consultation and get you an outstanding result.
