What Can Happen?

Nobody wants to get hurt as they go about their normal daily activities, but we cannot control the actions of other people around us. Sometimes, unexpected things happen. Today, we will discuss some of the ways that people are injured due to other people’s negligence.

• Vehicle accidents are common ways that people sustain injuries. For the latest reporting year in San Diego, there were more than 9,000 people injured or killed in accidents. These incidents often occur due to drunk, distracted, or careless drivers.
• Commercial vehicles are large and have the ability to cause major damage. These can include eighteen-wheelers, other large trucks, buses and more.
• Medical professionals are the people we trust with our health, but sometimes they make serious mistakes. In fact, some estimates say medical mistakes kill as many as 440,000 people a year. If that many are killed, how many more survive and need extensive treatment to fix the mistake?
• Pedestrians and bicyclists are especially vulnerable in and around the roadway and are almost always injured when they get struck by a vehicle. Together, they accounted for over 26,000 injuries in the latest reporting year for the state.
• Defective products are a major concern across the US. We see news stories every night of a product being recalled. Sometimes it is a vehicle that catches fire, other times it is a food that is carrying E. coli or Salmonella. The website that tracks current recalls shows us plenty of dangerous foods, appliances, toys, cosmetics, medications, and more.

How You Can Move Forward

While we know that the aftermath of an accident can be confusing, please do not rush to a settlement with insurance companies or another party until you seek legal assistance. When someone else is to blame for your injuries, you may be eligible for more compensation than is being offered.

At the Eugene Bruno & Associates, we will get to work on securing coverage for all of your accident-related medical expenses, lost income if you cannot work, as well as pain and suffering damages.
