An Auto Accident Injury Lawyer Can Represent You in a Car Accident Case Even if You’ve Received a Ticket in or Near Tampa, FL
If you’ve been in accident and were ticketed by law enforcement, you may think that you have no case and there’s no use hiring an auto accident injury lawyer. You may not want to make that assumption. That’s because an auto accident injury lawyer has the skill and knowledge necessary to investigate your case and determine whether or not you were properly ticketed. In fact, it isn’t uncommon for people to be ticketed incorrectly in the chaos that follows a traffic accident. Officers show up after the incident and often rely on witness testimony, which can be incorrect. Additionally, one or all of the drivers – the people most crucial to the investigation – may be unavailable if they were injured and taken to the hospital. The accuracy of traffic accident tickets is so unreliable, the state of Florida doesn’t allow them to be used as evidence in accident cases that go to trial.
So, in the case that your accident goes to trial, the ticket may not even matter. However, if like most cases yours doesn’t go to trial, you may want an auto accident injury lawyer to determine whether or not you were ticketed incorrectly. If your lawyer can prove that you weren’t at fault, it could mean collecting a large settlement for your financial losses including those associated with medical bills, personal property, lost wages and more. Even if you were correctly ticketed, an auto accident injury attorney might be able to help. The only thing that’s certain is this: it’s difficult for a private citizen to get the settlement they deserve from a large insurance company that is determined to minimize financial pay outs to victims in car accidents.
