Every year, hundreds of motor vehicle accidents occur on the streets, highways and interstates throughout Birmingham, Alabama, and other parts of the state. Unfortunately, these accidents often cause life-altering, permanent injuries to innocent people. In fact, statistics show that the majority of drivers will be involved in some kind of motor vehicle accident during their lifetime and that about one-third of those individuals will be injured or killed. While these statistics are staggering and sobering, they only tell a small part of the story.
In a split second, a motor vehicle accident can occur and forever change your life or that of a loved one. Physical and emotional injuries stemming from a motor vehicle accident can come in a wide variety of forms and can result in significant personal and economic damages to you and your family. If injured or hurt in an accident, you or a family member can be saddled with significant medical bills, lost wages, property damage, permanent impairment, disfigurement, tremendous physical pain, emotional distress and mental anguish. Many individuals injured in a motor vehicle accident feel the ill effects of these injuries for a lifetime. Worst of all, and perhaps more tragic, children are injured and killed every day in these accidents. As a parent, the emotional scars left behind from losing a child are simply overwhelming.
