The instant you heard the screeching of tires or the crunching of glass, your world dramatically changed -- and not for the better. If you are injured, incurred medical bills or have a car that needs repair as a result of a motor vehicle accident, the questions are mounting at a staggering pace. The attorneys at Michles & Booth have over 90 years combined experience in this area of the law.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the National Center for Statistics and Analysis, in 2007, 41,059 people were killed in the estimated 6,024,000 police-reported motor vehicle traffic crashes, 2,491,000 people were injured, and 4,275,000 crashes involved property damage only. In that same year, 33 percent of passenger car occupants and 37 percent of light-truck occupants involved in fatal crashes were unrestrained. In fatal crashes, 76 percent of passenger vehicle occupants who were totally ejected from vehicles were killed. Seat belts are effective in preventing total ejection. Only one percent of the occupants reported to have been using restraints were totally ejected, compared with 31 percent of the unrestrained occupants.
Having achieved numerous jury verdicts (see Motor Vehicle Accident articles) and countless settlements totaling millions of dollars, Michles & Booth fully understands the value of these complicated cases and can ensure you and your family receive full compensation for your injuries through either a jury trial verdict or a negotiated settlement.
