Bloomfield Car Accident Lawyer

Being involved in a serious car accident can be a dreadful and overwhelming experience, especially if you’ve suffered injuries. In the aftermath of the crash, thinking about pursuing compensation from the at-fault party might be daunting and the last thing you want to worry about.

You probably have more pressing questions running through your head: Who’s going to pay for my medical expenses? What about my job and lost wages? Will the at-fault party’s insurer give me a fair settlement? Who pays for the damage to my car? If you or a loved one has been hurt in a car accident, you deserve legal counsel to sort through all your complex medical issues and legal matters and stand up to uncooperative and unfair insurance providers.

The Bloomfield car accident lawyers of Berman, Russo & Merwin have more than 30 years of experience working with personal injury cases. We have used our resources, knowledge, and extensive experience to secure over $100 million for our injured clients. Reach out to us today, so we can start working on your case and holding the negligent parties liable for your injuries.

Common Injuries In Car Accident Cases

Car accidents can cause a wide array of injuries, ranging from simple cuts and bruises to life-altering injuries that lead to permanent disabilities. The exact circumstances of the crash will significantly impact the seriousness of the injuries, such as how fast the car was moving when you got hit, the specific type of collision, and the weather conditions, among many others. Injuries resulting from car crashes often include:

• Whiplash
• Back injuries
• Soft tissue injuries, such as severe sprains and bruises
• Multiple broken bones
• Spinal cord injuries (SCIs)
• Compound fractures
• Burns
• Herniated discs
• Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
• Amputated limbs
• Internal organ damage

These injuries may require long-term and expensive medical care. Our Bloomfield car accident attorneys will make certain that the at-fault insurer will cover not only your current and past medical costs but any future expenses due to ongoing care as well.

But you must act as soon as possible after your car accident. In Connecticut, you only have two years from the date of your car accident to take legal action against the negligent party. If you miss this time limit, you will lose your chance to file your lawsuit and receive the compensation you need to recover physically, emotionally, and financially.

While you may be thinking that two years is a long time, it may not be, particularly if all your days are packed with medical appointments, physical therapy, or longing to go back to work and earn a living. Likewise, memories can fade, and evidence can disappear. This is why the sooner you speak to our team, the better your chances of securing quick and sufficient compensation for your losses.

Damages You Can Recover In A Car Accident Case

Under Connecticut tort law, injured parties can hold a negligent driver who caused a crash liable for their injuries and related damages. Depending on your situation, you may recover the following damages:

• With bodily injurie, the more severe, extensive, and disabling the injuries, the higher the value of the claim
• The affect of the accident and injuries on your physical and mental health
• Past and future physical pain, suffering, and mental anguish
• Past and future medical costs
• Embarrassment and humiliation related to your injuries
• Lost earnings, regardless of whether you were paid while you couldn’t work. This also includes any promotions, benefits, sick, and vacation days you missed at work.
• Lost earning capacity and work opportunities
• Other necessarily or reasonably incurred expenses related to your injuries and those you stand to incur in the future.

Take note that the specific damages and their value will differ from one car accident case to the next. The Bloomfield attorneys of Berman, Russo  & Merwin will determine and calculate all the possible damages you can recover and secure maximum compensation to cover all your car accident damages.
