Helping Car Accident Victims in the Central Iowa area
Anyone who has been injured in a car accident or due to the negligence of others knows the kind of stress, worry and frustration that often follows. Being injured, missing work and being left with a damaged vehicle can raise concerns about your physical and financial future, both in the short- and long-term.
The lawyers at the Jeff Carter Law Offices, P.C., in Des Moines, Iowa, are experienced in helping people get back on their feet after a car accident or other personal injury. We will see that you are justly compensated for your injuries, lost wages and property damage. Contact us as soon as possible after your accident.
Don't Do It Yourself
Being injured, missing time at work and being without a working vehicle can leave you feeling strapped for money. You may be tempted to accept the first settlement offer made by the other driver's insurance company. Don't do it. Insurance companies have every interest in getting you to settle for cheap. Their main interest is minimizing what they have to pay to you, not ensuring you are fairly and justly compensated for all your losses.
Moreover, your injuries may require long-term medical treatment. That is something that a quick insurance settlement does not take into account. We will deal with the other driver's insurance company, so you don't have to. It is important to negotiate a settlement that will take into account both your current and future condition and to have an attorney prepared to take your case to trial if necessary.
Don't shortchange yourself - contact our firm and let our experienced car accident attorneys work on your behalf to protect your best interests.
After an Accident, Time Is of the Essence
Like most causes of action, you only have a certain amount of time after the accident to file suit. For personal injury cases in Iowa, the window is two years. In addition, it is important to begin the process of getting medical treatment, investigating the accident, and collecting and preserving evidence as soon as possible. Waiting too long will jeopardize your chances of a successful outcome.
Being injured in a car accident does not have to ruin your life. The law provides ways for you to get paid for lost work, pay your medical bills, and repair or replace your vehicle. Our attorneys will take care of the legal issues for you so you can focus on getting better.
Contact our Des Moines, Iowa, offices if you have been injured in a car accident, truck accident or motorcycle accident. We offer free initial consultations and accept Visa and MasterCard. Our office is open 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday to Friday, and in-home, weekend and evening appointments are available by appointment.
