Motor Vehicle Accidents

Anyone that has driven a car understands that they can be involved in an accident through no fault of their own. Of the hundreds of thousands of accidents that occur every year, fortunately only a small fraction of those involve serious injuries. However, for those unfortunate individuals who have suffered a major injury (or even death), there are a multitude of complications and obstacles to getting a fair recovery when dealing with an insurance company whose sole motive is to pay as little as possible and show a profit for its shareholders.

The sooner the injured person speaks with a motor vehicle accident attorney the better. Information and evidence can be lost, if not gathered shortly after the collision. Witness statements, photos of the scene and vehicles need to be obtained before changes or repairs occur. Most importantly, it is imperative that medical attention by a qualified doctor be undertaken in order to document that the pains and disabilities are from the accident and not some event that happened after the date of the collision.

If the collision, however, involves a truck, such as a semi-trailer truck, a whole new set of rules apply. It is here that the injured person really needs the services of a competent trial lawyer. Federal and State regulations govern almost anything that a truck driver does, including the number of hours he can work, the training he must have, the documentation that must be kept, the “black boxes” on the truck, etc. These can be very valuable claims, but the right lawyer is the one that has the knowledge and experience to get the most information from the company and governmental agencies that oversee the trucking industry.

A. Russell Blank, LLC is such a law firm. Russell Blank has devoted more than 30 years to the handling of motor vehicle and trucking accident claims. Insurance companies know which lawyers are willing to go to trial, as compared to those that rush to an early settlement regardless of the true value of a case. It is the experienced trial lawyer that will get the maximum amount for a given claim and Russell Blank is someone that will make sure that the insurance company will pay a fair settlement or he will take the case to a jury trial. That reputation assures you of the best result. If you have any questions about your accident contact us.

Finding the Right Personal Injury Lawyer for your Case

When you have been injured in a motor vehicle collision through the carelessness and negligence of somebody else, you will want to find the right personal injury lawyer to represent you. The lawyer that drew up your Will or who represented you in your divorce probably is not the person best for you.

Focus exclusively on personal injury lawyers

The law of personal injury is detailed and complicated with special procedures and rules of evidence that apply only to that practice area. Insurance companies know and respect those lawyers who are not only experienced in the handling of personal injury claims, but regularly go to court to try cases before a jury. With over thirty years of trial experience and leadership positions in several trial organizations, A. Russell Blank has earned the reputation of settling a case only when the figures are fair and trying cases when the insurance company is unwilling to make a reasonable offer.

Localize

If you are from Illinois, and you have been injured in a Georgia auto collision, your Illinois attorney is going to send your case to a locally established and successful Georgia personal injury attorney like A. Russell Blank. In fact, the vast majority of cases handled by A. Russell Blank, LLC are referrals from other lawyers both inside and outside the State of Georgia. Georgia lawyers know and appreciate his success rate before juries and lawyers from other states find him after investigating his credentials and learning of his reputation for honesty and competence.

Ask others about a lawyer’s reputation

Just as you would not want to hire a tax lawyer to handle a personal injury claim, you would not want to hire a personal injury lawyer when the only thing you know about him or her is what you saw on television or heard on radio. Good lawyers rarely advertise, since they have former satisfied clients and knowledgeable other lawyers who refer friends or clients to them. Certain lawyers have gained a reputation of excellence and have honors and recognition’s that signify a level of competence upon which you can rely. Read carefully the background and accomplishments of A. Russell Blank, and ask your family lawyer friend if those accolades are notable and impressive. You will not be disappointed.

Our years of success are based on substantial monetary recoveries and satisfied clients. So, do not hesitate to contact us on your own. We are available by phone or email, and we will gladly arrange for a free consultation and case evaluation.
