Get Legal Support After A Serious Car, Truck Or Motorcycle Accident
When a vehicle accident causes a serious or fatal injury, you and your family will need compensation to cover medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Without legal representation, however, it is very unlikely that you will recover the amount of compensation you need. As an individual, you will have little chance against the insurance company’s team of lawyers.

Frequently Asked Questions About Traffic Accidents
Bring us your questions, such as those below, and we will offer personalized answers to fit your unique circumstances.
How long do I have to file a claim?
To be eligible for compensation through your auto insurance’s personal injury protection (PIP) and MedPay, you must have gotten medical treatment within two weeks of an accident. If another driver was partially or totally at fault, you have up to four years to bring a claim or lawsuit against that driver. If your family member died in a fatal crash, the statute of limitations is two years.
