Our Jacksonville car accident lawyers have more than 240 years of combined legal experience with jury verdicts and insurance settlements in excess of $1 million each, and more than $10 million in settlements for personal injury claims involving motor vehicle accidents. Anyone injured by the negligence or unreasonable acts of another deserves good legal representation, so we prosecute large and small injury cases with the same vigorous approach.

Due to the increased number of vehicles on the road, automobile accidents, truck collisions, and motorcycle accidents are among the most frequently prosecuted personal injury and wrongful death cases for our Jacksonville office.

What to do if you’ve been injured in an auto accident.

After seeking immediate medical care and following up with your doctors, you may be quickly contacted by representatives of insurance companies.

Car Accidents with Julie Harrell

You never have to face big insurance companies alone: Our car accident lawyers will be at your side every step of the way.

When to hire a Jacksonville car accident attorney.

If you’ve been injured in an auto accident that you believe was caused by the negligence or carelessness of another person or party, contacting a Jacksonville car accident attorney immediately puts you in a stronger position when dealing with insurance companies. An auto accident claim can involve more than just agreeing to the settlement amount an insurance company offers: There may be other aspects of the accident or your injuries that should be considered before accepting a settlement, such as the long-term effects on your ability to earn a living, or future medical costs that may be incurred. Depending upon the unique circumstances of your accident, there may also be more than one party that may at fault, such as an equipment manufacturer. A qualified car accident attorney will know how to navigate the claims process and help ensure that your rights are fully protected.

Even if you feel your injuries are minor, taking advantage of a free consultation with Harrell & Harrell, P.A., attorneys can be of benefit. Some injuries, such as soft-tissue injuries and head injuries, don’t always exhibit symptoms right away. That’s why it’s important to speak with an attorney after any accident and before rushing into a settlement with an insurance company.

Also, keep in mind that the sooner you speak with a car accident lawyer, the sooner he or she can ensure that evidence is preserved and that proper steps are taken to build the strongest case possible on your behalf.
