Car accidents kill an estimated 1.2 million people worldwide each year, and injure about forty times this number. They are the leading cause of death for people between the ages of 6 and 27. A car accident can occur when your car hits another vehicle, person, animal or a stationary object such as tree or telephone pole. It also can include losing control of your car and subsequent damage to your car. If you have been injured in a car accident a personal injury attorney can help you file a personal injury lawsuit.

All other states have at-fault liability laws. These laws require that the person who is responsible for the collision pay the costs for the others involved. Motorists are required to have a minimum amount of liability insurance. In most cases, a claim need only be filed against the guilty driver's vehicle liability insurance company. If the driver is uninsured or underinsured they may not have enough liability coverage to pay for your injuries. Failure to maintain liability insurance is against the law and individuals who cause accidents and do not have proper insurance can be sued and their assets taken to pay for any judgments imposed on them. An expert personal injury lawyer can help develop a case to determine who is at fault and the amount of damages which should be paid.
