Rhode Island Car Accident Lawyer

If you’ve been injured in a car accident, your first step is to seek immediate medical help. No matter how minor your injuries seem at the time, seek a qualified medical opinion right away. Oftentimes, injuries go unnoticed and serious health issues manifest at a later date. Delaying medical treatment can also negatively affect the value of a potential personal injury claim.

Contact a knowledgeable injury lawyer experienced with car accidents in Rhode Island and Massachusetts to protect your legal rights. Don’t speak to the other person’s insurance company until you’ve sought out expert legal advice from a qualified source like Tapalian Law. Attorney Tapalian will advise you what steps to take next and guide you throughout the duration of your car accident claim to seek maximum compensation for your injuries.

Compensation is different for every accident or injury claim and there are a number of factors that affect your case value. In order to properly evaluate your claim, it’s important that you follow the treatment protocol suggested by your medical providers. Some of the variables involved in determining the monetary value of your case are:

• Percentage of fault, if any
• Lost income or lost earning capacity
• Loss of future earnings due to some type of permanent impairment
• Reimbursement of medical expenses
• Pain and suffering due to your injuries
• Any type of permanent scarring
• Post-traumatic stress due to the accident

For the great majority of auto accident claims, we are only able to apprise you of monetary value once your treatment is concluded. Generally speaking, the more extensive your treatment, the greater the value of your claim. Typically, the greater your compensatory damages, the greater amount you will be entitled to recover for your personal injury claim. In other types of cases involving significantly severe injuries or death, we are able to give you a better estimation of compensation upfront. Contact us for a free case evaluation.

With the majority of car accident claims, there are two aspects- a property damage claim and a personal injuries claim. As a personal injury lawyer in Providence Rhode Island, Attorney David Tapalian will handle all aspects of your car accident claim. Often times the property damage aspect is the most frustrating part for a client, but Tapalian Law will work on your behalf to achieve maximum compensation for your motor vehicle damage, prompt repairs as needed, and get you placed into a rental car right away. Using all legal means necessary, including arbitration and civil litigation, we will achieve maximum compensation for your property damage claim.

The second aspect of your car accident claim is for your bodily injuries. With a vast network of some of the most well-respected medical providers throughout RI and MA, Tapalian Law can help you to receive prompt, compassionate and competent care for all of your medical needs. Not only will these medical providers provide quality medical treatment, they may serve as medical experts throughout your car accident claim if necessary. Once you are done treating and have reached what is called maximum medical improvement, Attorney Tapalian will finalize your accident case to achieve maximum compensation. Over 90% of our cases settle without arbitration or litigation. However, if these methods are necessary, Tapalian Law will be with you throughout the process.

Insurance companies are always happy when an accident victim doesn’t have an attorney on their side. This means there’s no threat of arbitration or litigation, and they will be able to settle the car accident case for a lot less money. If you are hurt in a motor vehicle accident in Rhode Island, it’s essential to have a competent personal injury lawyer to represent you against the insurance companies. If you are hurt and proceed without legal representation, any and all statements you make to the insurance adjuster or representative can be used against you, and you will likely be offered much less compensation for your personal injury and property damage claims. A top-rated injury attorney in RI with over 20 years of experience, David Tapalian knows the insurance companies and the insurance companies know that they will have to offer fair compensation for the claim before Tapalian Law will settle. Attorney Tapalian will negotiate on your behalf with the insurance company and strengthen your claim with supporting documentation as applicable for your lost wages, lost earning capacity, post-traumatic stress, pain-and-suffering, and other compensatory damages. There is never a fee to hire Tapalian Law as your personal injury attorney and we only get paid when you win money for your car accident case.
