Daytona Beach Car Accident Lawyer

Our Daytona Beach car accident lawyers have handled complex personal injury cases and recovered damages for permanent injuries and fatalities but we do not limit our representation to big cases. We welcome soft tissue and other cases. You may be injured worse than you originally thought, and we may be able to recover more money than you expected.

Car accidents are the number one cause of serious injury in Florida. Severe car accidents change the lives of the people involved forever. Whether it is due to injury, pain, lost personal capacity, wages and employment advancement, enjoyment of favorite activities, or even the loss of a loved one, the victims of collisions suffer a great deal and must be reimbursed for their losses.

There are many types of car accidents and each one requires different legal steps to ensure that your rights are protected, and that you get the compensation you deserve. For instance, if you are a driver who was injured in a Daytona Beach, FL car accident, your case is completely different than that of a passenger in a commercial vehicle accident.

Generally, people who operate cars must exercise “reasonable care under the circumstances.” A failure to use reasonable care is considered negligence. A person who negligently operates a vehicle may be required to pay for harm to a person or property, caused by his or her negligence. If you have been involved in a car accident or negligent car wreck, do not hesitate to seek legal counsel from a Daytona Beach car accident attorney experienced in car collision cases in order to best protect your interests.

Florida Car Accident Data

According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) there were 30,057 fatal motor vehicle crashes in the United States in 2013 in which 32,719 deaths occurred. This resulted in national motor vehicle crash death rates of 10.3 deaths per 100,000 people and 1.11 deaths per 100 million vehicle miles traveled.

Car accidents caused by negligent drivers and defective or malfunctioning auto parts on roads located in and around Daytona Beach, Volusia County and throughout the state of Florida are one of the leading causes of death and serious injuries such as head and brain injury, spine injury, loss of limb, loss of senses, and other catastrophic injuries.

And injuries are a serious plausibility for people involved in crashes- more than half of the crashes in 2016 ended with injuries. Equally troubling is Florida’s consistent increase in accidents year over year. The state suffered an unprecedented 100,000 additional accidents between 2005 and 2014- a 30 percent increase. And, as seen below, the trend is continuing, despite the dip in 2016’s last few months. In 2015, Florida reported 374,669 accidents; In 2016, the number increased by more than 14,000 to 389,369 accidents.

Why and How to Hire a Daytona Beach Accident Attorney

If you are injured by someone else’s negligence, Insurance companies have professional adjusters and legal teams to defend the claim. It is only fair that you have a legal team on your side. The accident attorneys at Bundza & Rodriguez, P.A. understand the injustice in this fight, so we step in to give you a fair shot at obtaining justice and compensation.

In order to claim compensation from the other driver’s liability insurance policy, it is necessary to prove that the driver is at fault for causing your accident. To do this, we look for evidence that the driver acted in a careless or reckless manner at the time of the collision. Anyone who gets behind the wheel of a car assumes a major responsibility to take precaution to avoid causing a crash, and any failure to do so may serve as grounds for legal action. If the driver was distracted by texting, was under the influence of drugs or alcohol, or was committing any other type of traffic violation, he or she may be held accountable for causing the crash. Let our Daytona Beach, FL accident lawyers put their skills and experience to work in proving your claim for damages.
