If you or someone you love was injured in a head-on collision, our Joppatowne head-on collision accident lawyer can take on the at-fault driver and their insurer on your behalf.

At Adam Smallow Injury Lawyers, we are passionate about protecting the rights of our injured clients. We understand the negligent party’s responsibilities and how to prove them. Our results-driven team can build the strongest possible case for compensation and fight hard for financial recovery.

What Is a Head-On Collision?

A head-on collision is one in which the fronts of two cars collide. According to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), about 14% of all car accidents are head-on crashes. It is an especially dangerous type of accident because the occupants in both cars are exposed to severe and forceful impact injuries.

These dangerous accidents can result in the following injuries:

  • Head and facial injuries
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Whiplash
  • Broken and fractured bones
  • Internal and organ damage 
  • Chest and abdominal injuries

We will obtain your medical, rehab, and therapy records to prove the cause and costs of your injuries. We can also request a written prognosis to determine the costs of care you will require in the future.

What Are the Common Causes of Head-On Accidents?

Our car accident lawyer serving Joppatowne can collect evidence that proves the cause of your accident, which may be:

  • Wrong way driving
  • Improper lane changes
  • Distracted driving
  • Driving under the influence 
  • Driving while fatigued driving
  • Reckless driving

The evidence file we build to prove the accident’s cause may contain the crash report, photos and videos of the accident scene, witness statements, and accident reconstruction reports.

Another section of your case file may cover proof of your post-accident costs. It could consist of medical records and bills, vehicle repair and replacement estimates, and proof of income.

What Types of Compensation Can You Recoup From the At-Fault Driver?

According to Md. Cts. & Jud. Proc. Code § 11–109, you can recover the following economic damages after your accident:

  • Medical expenses
  • Loss of earnings
  • Loss of earning capacity
  • Property damage costs

According to Md. Cts. & Jud. Proc. Code § 11–108, you can also recover non-economic damages, including:

  • Pain and suffering
  • Physical impairment or disfigurement
  • Mental anguish and emotional trauma

If your family lost one of their members in a head-on collision, you have our deepest sympathies and our commitment to recover wrongful death damages on your behalf. We may demand compensation for the decedent’s funeral and burial costs and your loss of income and domestic support.

How Long Do You Have to File a Lawsuit for Compensation?

You usually have three years to file a lawsuit after an accident. If you or a loved one was injured, the clock on your lawsuit starts running on the date of the accident, according to Md. Cts. & Jud. Proc. Code § 5-101.

The clock on your family’s wrongful death statute of limitations typically starts running on the date of a loved one’s demise, according to Md. Cts. & Jud. Proc. Code § 3-904. If the statute of limitations runs out and you haven’t filed suit, you could be left with no legal recourse that compels the negligent driver to compensate you. Our law firm can help you avoid this costly risk to your case.

Do You Need to Hire a Head-On Collision Lawyer After a Baltimore Accident?

You could attempt to resolve your case without a lawyer, but doing so can be risky and frustrating. At Adam Smallow Injury Lawyers, we take a service-oriented approach to providing client-center legal service and support.

When you turn to our head-on collision accident lawyer for support with your case, we take all of the following steps on your behalf:

  • Gather physical evidence
  • Obtain relevant documentation
  • Draft and file your case
  • Handle case-related communication
  • Consult expert witnesses
  • Clarify legal and insurance language
  • Interview accident witnesses
  • Negotiate on your behalf

Our law firm has over 10 years of experience meeting the needs of personal injury victims. We may even suggest highly qualified medical providers—the same ones we trust to treat our staff and families.

How Much Does It Cost to Hire a Car Accident Lawyer?

It costs nothing up front to hire our law firm, and you will pay nothing out of your pocket. Instead of upfront or hourly fees, we can represent you on a contingency fee basis, meaning our fee is contingent on your financial recovery.

Our law firm will cover the costs of:

  • Investigating your case
  • Requesting paperwork
  • Court filing fees
  • Obtaining evidence

We will not expect compensation unless and until we recover it for you.
