How is Fault Assigned in Head-On Collisions?

Home » Frequently Asked Questions » How is Fault Assigned in Head-On Collisions?

If you require professional assistance in proving liability in Pasadena head-on collision cases, know that a skilled accident attorney can be a valuable asset to you in this regard. An experienced lawyer can work to show the liability of the party at fault by preserving evidence, interviewing key witnesses, and obtaining any video footage that could have been captured of the scene from a nearby camera. Read on to learn more about how a collision lawyer experienced in proving liability in Pasadena head-on collision cases can work to help your case today.

How is Fault Assigned in Head-On Collisions?

Often, the circumstances of a head-on collision case will determine whether a jury an insurance company assigns one’s liability in causing the accident. For example, if one driver made an unreasonable decision such as driving the wrong way on a one-way street or attempted to pass a slower car in a dangerous situation, then their role in causing the accident will seem more clear-cut. Other more complicated cases may involve comparative negligence, which is assigned when both parties involved took part in some type of negligent action to cause the collision, such as speeding.

Because determining liability in Pasadena head-on collision cases can be a complicated task, it is important to speak to a dedicated injury lawyer before contacting an insurance company so that an individual can understand what may or may not harm their ability to recover for their injuries.

The Possibility of Punitive Damages

Unfortunately, drink drivers or drivers under the influence of drugs are the most likely individuals to hold liability in Pasadena head-on collision cases. If someone chooses to drive after becoming inebriated, that is a conscious disregard for their rights and the safety of others on the road. It displays a malicious behavior that would potentially increase the chances of a judge awarding punitive damages to a plaintiff who was injured by that driver’s actions. This is because juries may desire to punish that driver to make sure they understand the severity of their actions and do not continue that reckless behavior in the future.

The Role of a Skilled Injury Attorney

Because the majority of head-on collision cases come about when the driver at-fault is breaking the law in some way, it can be very important to retain a lawyer knowledgeable about proving liability in Pasadena head-on collision cases so that they can properly show how and why a defendant caused the wreck. A negligent driver could be texting, driving the wrong way down a one-way street, or intoxicated behind the wheel, and in order to prove those circumstances, a plaintiff would need someone experienced in the local laws surrounding those instances.

Examples of injuries that one can suffer from a head-on collision can be very serious, including paralysis, loss of limbs, traumatic brain injuries, and broken bones. For this reason, an injured individual should not hesitate to reach out to a professional attorney skilled in proving liability in Pasadena head-on collision cases as soon as possible for legal representation.

Testimonial

“As a young lawyer, I am appreciative of great lawyers like yourself, who are willing to take the time to pass your knowledge and wisdom onto others.  I just finished your podcast with Greg Reeves.  I grew up with Greg’s niece, and his brother built my childhood home.  I had no idea how great of a lawyer he was until recently.  I started following him on Instagram after I graduated law school, and he is the reason I was led to your podcast a few months ago and to Gerry Spence’s book “Win Your Case”.

I hope to be able to attend the Ranch and effectively incorporate the techniques you discuss in one of the coming years. I hope you are able to keep the podcast going, and I look forward to each episode.

Thank you for sharing your gift with us.”
