How to Maximize Your Financial Recovery After a Car Accident?

In order to maximize financial recovery after a car accident, it’s imperative to explore your right to file a personal injury claim against the party responsible for your collision. Personal injury claims allow you to recover damages based on the value of the economic and non-economic expenses you sustained due to someone else’s negligence.

Working with an experienced car accident lawyer will also help you maximize your financial recovery. Our board-certified legal team at Fighter Law, including Thomas Feiter and Jessica Travis, will fight for your rights to ensure that you get the most compensation possible for your injuries. 

Tips for Maximizing Your Compensation After a Car Accident

There are many strategies you can employ to improve the success of your claim, such as:

Gathering Evidence to Meet the Burden of Proof

Arguing for maximum compensation after a car accident requires you to first prove that you have the right to pursue your claim. You can emphasize this right by bringing together enough data to meet or exceed the court’s burden of proof. 

This specifically requires you to prove, through the use of quantifiable evidence, that another party owed you a duty of care at the time of your accident. You can then use that same evidence to argue that said party’s negligence caused your collision.

Our car accident lawyers will work with you to gather evidence of bills, invoices, and other expenses to emphasize that someone’s negligence had a concrete impact on your financial well-being.

Thoroughly Explaining Your Losses 

Some of the most common economic losses individuals have to deal with after an accident include the cost of replacing a damaged car and the cost of getting essential medical care. Some of our clients also have to deal with reduced wages or an inability to return to work – all of which are conditions that make paying the bills all the more difficult.

If you want to emphasize the value of your economic losses and maximize your car accident settlement, you need to keep clear records of all of the expenses related to your recovery. Bills and invoices make a good starting point, but you can supplement them with expert witness testimonies from medical professionals, mechanics, and police officers.

You also have the right to ask for compensation based on your car accident’s non-economic losses. The category of non-economic losses includes emotional strains that regularly impact your quality of life. Some of the most common non-economic losses include the following:

• Reduced quality of life
• Pain and suffering
• Emotional distress
• Stress
• Grief, loss of consortium, and loss of companionship if the accident resulted in a wrongful death

Our team will work with you to independently calculate the value of these losses to ensure that no stone is left unturned in your path towards compensation after a car accident.
