Our practice focuses on vehicle accidents because when you’ve been injured it helps to have a lawyer who knows how to handle car accident claims. Attorney Marsh has seen it all, from motorists failing to yield when making a left turn to drivers hitting pedestrians who have the right of way during a right turn.
Whatever the situation, Mr. Marsh knows what it takes to win a settlement or court award. He will work with you to quickly assess your injuries and losses, by reviewing your medical records and bills. He will never ask you to settle for less than your case is worth. Instead, he’ll gather evidence and craft a strong argument to maximize the value of your claim.
When a failure to yield results in an accident, having an honest, hard-working attorney on your side is important. You could be suffering from serious injuries. You need someone to fight for what’s best for you and your family – not what’s best for an insurance company.
When attorney Marsh handles your car accident case:
Failure to yield cases can be tricky. Are you confident you had the right of way? It helps to talk with a lawyer and explain exactly what happened. Attorney Marsh will review the facts, like the police report and any tickets the other driver had for failure to yield.
When determining fault, it might become clear another driver was negligent. In which case, attorney Marsh might recommend moving forward with an insurance claim or lawsuit.
Failing to yield often causes:
Figuring out who is at fault in this type of crash requires identifying who had the right of way vs. who had the duty to yield. If the other driver was supposed to yield, then we will gather evidence of their negligence. We will show the driver had an obligation to follow the rules of the road and didn’t.
What does it take to prove fault? Evidence. Attorney Marsh will gather all sorts of materials to establish and support your claim, including a police report, eyewitness statements, vehicle damage reports, and your medical bills. In complex cases, we might bring on an accident reconstruction expert who can calculate things like speed and angles to recreate what happened.
Whether a car pulled out in front of you or a car tried to turn left through a yellow light, you might have serious injuries right now. Common car accident injuries include:
Attorney Marsh isn’t interested in a low-ball settlement that won’t cover your damages. When he takes on a car accident claim, it’s worth going after the maximum compensation possible.
Some of the losses you can recover compensation for include:
We do more than just fight for a settlement, though. We will help you deal with vehicle repairs, getting proper medical care, and documenting your injuries and expenses.
After being hurt in a crash, you and your attorney will focus on the insurance claim process. Most claims are resolved through a settlement. But you shouldn’t be in a hurry to accept an insurer’s first offer. It probably doesn’t cover all your expenses and losses. It’s best to talk with a lawyer about how much your case is worth and how to get the insurer to pay more.
Not all car accident claims need to go to court. It isn’t always practical or helpful. Thankfully, attorney Troy Marsh has decades of trial experience. He knows when filing a lawsuit is necessary or helpful for your claim.
By going through the discovery process you get access to evidence that otherwise wouldn’t be available. When large insurance companies are forced to hand over documents and contend with an attorney who is ready for trial, it strengthens your claim and gives you the advantage.
It depends on the situation. If you’re at an intersection controlled by a stoplight, then the lanes with the green light have the right of way. For vehicles with an unprotected left turn at a green light, oncoming traffic has the right of way.
When it comes to intersections that are uncontrolled or have stop signs, the vehicle that reaches the intersection first has the right of way. When two cars arrive at the same time, the vehicle to the right goes first.
When pedestrians are involved, they have the right of way. For merging, the traffic already in that lane has the right of way.
These are just the most common examples of when a vehicle has the right of way. If you aren’t sure about your situation, talk with attorney Troy Marsh.
You choose the right car accident attorney for you by asking questions. Don’t hesitate to show up at a free consult with a list of questions and expect answers. Some good questions to ask include:
You usually have two years from the date of the crash to file. This deadline is called the statute of limitations. It’s a good idea to talk with a lawyer about any factors that give you more or less time. An attorney will make sure you file before the deadline to protect your right to go to court.
You don’t have to accept a quick settlement or a claim denial. You should talk with a lawyer about how to get the most for your injuries. Whether an insurer is pushing you to take a low-ball offer or is saying you don’t have a case, The Marsh Law Firm is here to help.
