MARION CAR ACCIDENT ATTORNEY
Motor vehicle accidents can have many causes: faulty mechanics, poor road conditions, adverse weather and often times, the negligence of another driver. When injuries result from an accident caused by the fault of another, Attorney Dorn can help you receive compensation for your pain and suffering. Drunk driving, distracted driving from music, phone or texting, failure to obey traffic laws including appropriate speed, distance and right of way are common examples of negligent driving which frequently cause bodily injury. Attorney Dorn is experienced in the areas of Personal Injury Protection, Bodily Injury, Uninsured and Underinsured claims and will assist you in all aspects of the process from dealing with the involved insurance companies to making sure your medical bills, lost wages, and property damage are paid.
It is important to obtain competent legal representation as soon as possible after an automobile accident. Insurance company representatives will contact witnesses and involved parties shortly after an incident in an effort to obtain statements. In some instances these representatives will offer to settle claims quickly and for amounts far less than the full and fair amount of the claim. It is important that you understand all of your legal rights, not the least of which is to wait until you have achieved a pre-accident status to resolve your claim. Attorney Dorn relies on his prior experience as a practicing physician, as well as opinions from private investigators, vocational and economic consultants and accident scene reconstructionists to place your case in the best possible position for settlement or trial by jury.
As with all personal injury matters, automobile accident cases are accepted on a contingent fee basis which means that there is no up front cost to you. Further, there is no fee at all in automobile accident cases unless and until we are successful in obtaining a settlement or judgment for you. If you are unable, due to your injuries or lack of transportation, to travel to one of our offices, Attorney Dorn will travel to your home to discuss your case with you.
