Be Careful When Talking to an Insurance Company About Your Car Accident

Alabama law on car accidents has a few quirks in them compared to other folks. The first in law is that a person has no claim, technically, if they are even 1 percent and the other is 99 percent. The world will generally not work that way in the real world - but not far much to that. If you are talking to an insurance company, many will ask you to say about something you did wrong. If they get anything like that out of you, it can cost you a lot of money or loose the case entirely. Be very careful about talking to the insurance company about your car accident. If you decide to work without having an Alabama Personal Injury Lawyer negotiate you can unintentionally help the insurance company by giving away your case.

Wrongful Death Laws in Alabama

Image
The wrongful death laws in Alabama and Mississippi are very different. Actually, Alabama is different from almost 49 other states on this. Let me get to that basic difference now on Alabama then Mississippi law to follow. The first thing you need to know is the time to start the case. You absolutely must file this case within two years of the death . If two years passes without filing, the case is over. The case can continue after two years if filed but no action allowed if two years passes before filing. "A personal representative may commence an action and recover such damages as the jury may access in court..." Section 6-5-410(A)  The first thing this means that anyone who is part of the family or properly represents them can file this case for all. You don't get any more or any less what you are entitled to about filing this. Generally, one person leads for all. If there is more than one person to lead, the families need to decide on this.

Icey Weather conditions especially at night can make driving even more hazardous and difficult so please stay off the roads when you know the temperature is going to drop below freezing. It doesn't happen often in Tuscaloosa, AL and Columbus, MS but when it does it seems that all hell breaks loose.

Driving in Icey Weather Conditions can Cause Accidents

Image
Here in Alabama people are not used to roads becoming slippery from rain that freezes on the roads that you can't see - it's called black ice. It can make for very hazardous and unexpected driving conditions. There are times when the rain turns to sleet and bridges can become iced over. No matter how good a driver you are the other people on the road may not be as good at driving, especially when the weather gets so cold that even a cold tolerant wood frog has a bad day. So if you find yourself out on the roads in these terrible conditions take heart in knowing you are not out on a limb if something happens. Days like these are what insurance is for and if you feel like you need help after an accident that is what personal injury attorneys are for. Sometimes the burden of proving an accident is not your fault needs the help of an experienced personal injury attorney. No one is perfect but the insurance company can make you feel like you are at fault even if you are not. Aft...
