The Villages Auto Accident Law Firm Handling All Types of Vehicle Collisions

If you have been injured in a car accident, you should speak with an attorney. This is true regardless of the nature of the accident, where and when the accident occurred, and who you think may have been to blame. Car accidents can leave victims with substantial losses, and these losses can continue to accumulate well into the future.

As a The Villages auto accident law firm , we regularly represent local residents who have suffered injuries in traumatic collisions. One of our lawyers will be happy to speak with you for free, and we can use our experience to make sure you receive the compensation you deserve.

The Nature of a Car Accident Can Say a Lot About its Cause

At Whittel & Melton, LLC, we represent individuals and families who are suffering due to all types of auto accidents resulting from all causes. When you choose our law firm to represent you, we will work quickly to gather the evidence we need to establish liability and prove your claim for damages. Our lawyers regularly represent residents of The Villages who are entitled to compensation for accidents including:

Chain-Reaction Collisions

Chain-reaction collisions can leave multiple drivers and passengers suffering from traumatic injuries. If you or a loved one was injured in a chain-reaction accident in The Villages, we can conduct a thorough investigation to determine who was at fault and seek just compensation on your behalf.

Golf Cart Accidents

Golf cart drivers in The Villages are obligated to follow the rules of the road. When golf cart drivers are negligent or reckless, they can cause accidents that lead to injuries and property damage for everyone involved.

Head-On Crashes

While head-on crashes are relatively uncommon, they account for a disproportionate number of traumatic injuries and fatalities. We represent clients in cases involving head-on collisions resulting from all causes and occurring on all types of roads.

Highway Accidents

Highway accidents often result in serious injuries, and being stranded in the middle of a highway with an inoperative vehicle can be a frightening experience. Our lawyers can launch an independent investigation to prove liability, and we can use our experience to seek just compensation for your physical and emotional trauma.

Hit-and-Run Accidents

Hit-and-run accidents are unfortunately a common occurrence in Florida. While drivers flee accident scenes for various reasons, there are also various ways to track them down; and, even if it is not possible to identify the driver who hit you, our lawyers may still be able to pursue multiple claims on your behalf.

Intersection Accidents

Intersections can be dangerous places, especially during periods of high traffic. If you or a loved one was injured in an intersection accident in The Villages, you can count on the attorneys at our auto accident law firm to help you recover just compensation.

Parking Lot Accidents

Parking lots can be dangerous places as well. If someone backed into you or hit you while you were driving in a parking lot in The Villages, we can use all of the available evidence to help you recover just compensation for your medical expenses, pain, and other financial and non-financial costs.

Rear-End Crashes

While rear-end crashes are a relatively common occurrence, the consequences for victims can vary widely. If you have been diagnosed with a concussion, whiplash or any other type of injury as the result of being rear-ended in The Villages, we can help you recover compensation for your injury-related losses.

Side-Impact Collisions

Side-impact collisions can cause various types of injuries, and the recovery process can be long, difficult and painful for many drivers and passengers. If you were injured in a side-impact collision that was the other driver’s fault, we can prove it, and we can use our experience to fight for the compensation you deserve.

Sideswipe Collisions

Sideswipe collisions can also cause various types of injuries; and, here too, there are various ways to prove that the other driver was at fault in the crash. When you choose our The Villages auto accident law firm to represent you, we will make sure the other driver is held accountable for your losses.

Common Grounds for Financial Recovery Following Serious Car Accidents

Unless your losses are relatively minimal and you can secure all of the coverage you need under your personal injury protection (PIP) policy, recovering just compensation will involve proving that someone else was at fault in the collision. While most auto accident cases involve driver negligence, there are various other factors that can lead to dangerous car accidents as well.

At Whittel & Melton, LLC, we help individuals and families in The Villages recover just compensation for auto accidents caused by factors including (but not limited to):

• Careless, reckless or aggressive driving (including dangerous behaviors such as speeding, tailgating, and running red lights and stop signs)
• Driving under the influence of alcohol
• Driving under the influence of marijuana and other drugs
• Sending emails and using social media while driving
• Texting while driving
• Talking on the phone while driving
• Road defects and maintenance issues (including potholes, stoplight malfunctions and other similar types of issues)
• Vehicle defects and maintenance issues (including brake failures, tire blowouts and other similar types of issues)
