When choosing the best car accident lawyer, you need to look at their experience, track record and genuine desire to get results for clients. We know choosing a lawyer during such a tough and sensitive time can be hard and confusing. We at Longo Lawyers have made it our mission to help car accident victims in Mississauga navigate the complicated legal system while they focus on getting better and healing from their injuries.
Car accidents create chaos that goes beyond the damage to the cars and the injuries to the people inside. After a crash you will have to deal with emergency personnel, police officers, tow truck drivers and insurance adjusters, all with different goals and agendas. And the shock and stress from the event can make it very hard to think clearly about how to protect your legal rights when you need to most.
Driving in Mississauga’s city limits can be tough because of how the city is designed which can lead to catastrophic car accidents in the city and surrounding areas. Traffic jams during rush hour, construction projects that seem to change every week and the mix of local traffic with highway speeds at major interchanges make driving risky for everyone. And because the area has a lot of people, drivers with different levels of experience and knowledge of the roads drive on the same roads every day.
Insurance companies use complex methods designed to limit their financial risk once car accidents happen anywhere in the area. They will contact you within hours of an accident and sometimes while you are still getting emergency medical attention at local hospitals or urgent care centres. These early talks are not in your best interest; they are in the insurance company’s best interest since they are trying to get statements from you that they can use later to reduce the value of your claim or deny coverage altogether.
Many people who are injured in car accidents don’t realize how bad their injuries are at first because the body’s natural response to trauma can hide pain and other signs for a long time after the accident. Injuries to soft tissue, the brain and the mind often happen slowly and may not be fully clear until a long time after the injury. We help clients understand how important it is to get a full medical evaluation and keep records of how their conditions are changing over time. The true cost of an auto accident goes beyond the medical bills and the cost of fixing or replacing the car right away. Families who rely on regular income to pay their bills and maintain their standard of living can have a lot of trouble when they lose income. Some injuries require a lot of rehabilitation, adapted equipment or permanent changes to homes and cars that can cost tens of thousands of dollars over time.
We take a thorough approach to vehicle accident cases including thorough research and planning to make sure nothing is missed. When figuring out who is at fault we look at all the information we can find including police reports, witness statements, traffic camera footage and mobile phone data where relevant. We also work with accident reconstruction experts and medical professionals to build strong cases that clearly show who is at fault and how much our clients have suffered.
People who have never dealt with personal injury lawsuits before may find the legal process scary and too much to handle. We help our clients through every stage of the process breaking down complex legal terms into simple language everyone can understand. We also handle all interactions with insurance companies and the other side’s lawyer so our clients don’t accidentally say something that can hurt their claim.
We handle a wide range of personal injury cases including Slip and Fall Lawyer cases. This gives us a lot of experience with all kinds of injuries and how they affect people’s lives in the long term. If you hire our firm to handle your auto accident case in Mississauga you will have dedicated lawyers who will work hard to get you the most money possible.
