For over thirty (30) years, our firm has handled motor vehicle accidents, collisions and crashes involving cars, trucks, buses, trains, bicycles and pedestrians who have been seriously injured or killed as a result of someone else's negligence. Morice Law Firm has also successfully handled claims against various government entities regarding road defects and poor road design.
Our firm also handles claims for injuries caused by defective designs in automobiles, crash worthiness of vehicles, defective tires, seatbelts and car seats (including infant seats).
At our firm, not only do we look into the amount of insurance coverage that was in effect on the wrong doer's vehicle, we also look into whether he was covered by any additional insurance through his employment. We look into whether there is any medical payment coverage or uninsured motorist coverage that could apply additional insurance coverage. We also determine whether the insurance company has a valid rejection of UM coverage in effect on the day of the accident.
We have experienced investigators who go out and investigate auto accidents shortly after we are contacted. Remember, from the minute an accident occurs, the insurance company is already investigating the accident. They are attempting to gather any evidence that will lower their exposure to a potential claim. By contacting a lawyer immediately, you will have someone working for you and gathering evidence on your behalf which will include photographs, possible witness statement, and the accident reports and finding out whether there is insurance coverage available.
Our experienced attorneys handle any motor vehicle accidents which occur for any reason from a head on collision, T-bone crash, side swipe, tire blow out, rear end collision, hydroplaning, obstructive view by other vehicles, failure to yield, speeding, cell phone use, inattentive driving, hit and run and drunken driving.
At Morice Law Firm, our personal injury attorneys can help you determine who we believe to be at fault in the accident. We will look to a number of sources to help you determine liability including but not limited to statements made at the scene by witnesses and parties, the investigating officer's accident report, and depending on the case, possibly accident reconstruction experts and highway design / maintenance experts.
