COMMON TYPES OF CAR ACCIDENTS

​There are many different types of car accidents that may lead to serious injury for you or your loved ones. Our attorneys in Kenosha have experience with several different types of car accidents and can help navigate through your specific situation to determine who is at-fault and responsible for your injuries.

Some of the most common types of car accidents that occur are as follows:

  • Rear-End Accidents- These types of accidents are some of the most common. More than 500,000 individuals are injured annually as a result of rear-end collisions. Rear-end collisions occur when a vehicle is struck by a car that is driving behind it.

​HOW TO PROVE FAULT AFTER A CAR ACCIDENT

Every state has different laws regarding who is responsible for covering damages and losses after a car accident. The state of Wisconsin is an "At-Fault" state, which means that fault must be established for one of the parties involved in a car crash and someone will be held responsible for damages.

If you or your loved one has been seriously injured in an auto or truck accident, you are not alone. You need the right team on your side through the whole process; to help recover your losses and to help you move forward in your life. Struggling through this alone can be overwhelming and disheartening. By retaining legal help, you have someone experienced on your side, investigating the accident and fighting for restitution.
