Who is Liable for a Car Accident?

Liability for a car accident is determined by who was at fault for the crash. In some cases, it may be clear who was at fault for the car accident. However, in many cases, it can be difficult to determine who was at fault for a car accident. In these cases, a car accident lawyer can help you gather evidence to prove liability.

Common examples of driver negligence that can result in a car accident include:

  • Distracted driving
  • Drunk driving
  • Speeding
  • Reckless driving
  • Tailgating
  • Failure to yield
  • Failure to obey traffic signs

In some cases, a car accident may have been caused by a defective auto part. In these cases, the manufacturer of the auto part may be liable for the crash. An experienced car accident attorney can help you determine the cause of the accident and identify all potentially liable parties.

How Long Do I Have to File a Car Accident Lawsuit in Mississippi?

If you have been injured in a car accident, you only have a limited amount of time to take legal action. In Mississippi, the statute of limitations for car accident lawsuits is three years from the date of the accident. If you fail to file a lawsuit before the statute of limitations expires, the court will likely dismiss your case and you will be unable to recover compensation for your injuries.

Why Do I Need a Car Accident Lawyer?

Below are some of the ways that a car accident lawyer can help you with your case:

  • Handle all communication with the insurance company: After a car accident, you will likely be contacted by the at-fault driver’s insurance company. The insurance company may try to get you to make a recorded statement or sign a medical authorization form. They may also try to get you to accept a settlement that is less than you deserve. An attorney can help you handle all communication with the insurance company and ensure your rights are protected.
  • Investigate the car accident: Your attorney will investigate the car accident and gather evidence to prove liability. This may include reviewing the police report, interviewing witnesses, and hiring accident reconstruction experts.
  • Calculate the value of your case: Your attorney will calculate the value of your case and help you understand what your case may be worth. This will include calculating both your economic and non-economic damages.
  • Negotiate with the insurance company: Your attorney will negotiate with the insurance company on your behalf to help you obtain a fair settlement. If the insurance company refuses to offer a fair settlement, your attorney can take your case to court.
  • File a lawsuit: If the insurance company refuses to offer a fair settlement, your attorney can file a lawsuit and take your case to court. An attorney can help you understand the statute of limitations for your case and ensure you do not miss any important deadlines.
