Hartford Car Accident Lawyer
It can be hard in the days following a car accident to fully advocate for yourself and your rights, let alone battle with the insurance company. Connecticut is an “at-fault” state for car accidents, so if you didn’t cause the wreck, you can seek compensation for your injuries and other damages from the driver who caused it. To maximize your chances of getting a full recovery for your losses, turn to our Hartford, CT car accident lawyer. At Nugent & Bryant, we support your rights after a wreck and handle all aspects of your claim so you can focus on healing and moving forward with your life. Call us today for a consultation.
Car Accident Lawyer Hartford, CT
Car accidents can seriously injure you from your head to your toes, potentially disabling you, paralyzing you, or leaving you with lasting brain damage. Even if you’re fortunate enough to walk away with only a few bumps and bruises, you may still face serious financial loss, such as costly car repairs or missing an entire week of work to fully recover from your injuries. The disruption in your life, the lasting trauma, and a sense of injustice that someone else’s recklessness harmed you are frustrating. You need a strong ally.
Our Hartford car accident attorney is that strong legal ally. If you didn’t cause the crash, you should not have to pay for the losses another person’s negligence created. We investigate the crash and evaluate evidence, including reviewing data from each vehicle’s Event Data Recorder, dashcam video, and the physical damage to both cars. We depose witnesses to get a comprehensive accounting of what happened. You also benefit from our firm’s collaboration with transportation and financial experts to build a compelling liability case against the at-fault driver.
We seek full compensation for all your out-of-pocket losses, along with damages for pain, suffering, and a reduced overall quality of life. We can negotiate a settlement with the other driver, or, if they refuse to offer fair terms, we will pursue your claim through the civil court system. You can focus on recovery, trusting our team to handle the rest.
Our Legal Experience Matters In Your Car Accident Case
The amount you’re able to recover from your car accident claim depends on how effectively our Hartford car accident lawyer can establish fault on the part of the other driver. Our firm has considerable experience litigating tough car wreck cases. And, as skilled negotiators, we can often achieve a more favorable settlement from the insurance company than you could alone.
