As one of the most common personal injury claims, car accidents may happen anywhere. Surprisingly, the most dangerous road in Arvada is neither a highway nor an interstate. Many fatal collisions occur on Wadsworth Boulevard, making it one of the most hazardous roads in Arvada. Second to Wadsworth Boulevard for being the most hazardous roads to drive on are Interstate 70 and Sheridan Boulevard. If you often travel by car in Arvada, you are advised to drive with extreme caution, particularly in these areas. Be attentive when operating a vehicle, and maintain a safe distance when driving near motorcyclists, pedestrians, and bicyclists.
Meanwhile, other personal injury claims may occur anywhere negligent behavior occurs, such as any business that fails to maintain safe floors free of hazards as well as in any hospital or doctor’s office.

Determining the exact cause and liable party in an accident may often be challenging. For instance, if a driver loses control of the vehicle resulting in an accident, it may be challenging to determine the exact cause for the driver losing control. An Arvada personal injury lawyer may be able to conduct an investigation and prove that the driver losing control of the vehicle was the result of a manufacturing issue. The manufacturer of the vehicle would then be deemed liable, and the driver could sue them for negligence.
In some cases, there may be more than one party that may be liable for the accident, such as the manufacturer of a defective product as well as the retailer which marketed and sold the defective product. Meanwhile, in a drunk driving accident case, the drunk driver may often be liable for the accident, but the bar served the driver may also be held liable if it can be shown that the driver was over-served while visibly intoxicated or that the driver was a minor who was served alcohol by the bar.
Common parties who may be held liable in personal injury claims include:

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO GET A SETTLEMENT?
The amount of time needed to settle a claim is different for each personal injury case. It is common for insurance companies to offer a settlement immediately after the accident. The amount offered may be less than you need to cover all of your medical costs and other damages, but the offer is instead designed to take advantage of your perceived urgency and need for immediate compensation. However, it may often be advisable to wait before accepting an immediate settlement offer until you have consulted an experienced Arvada personal injury attorney to discuss your options. If you are still recovering from your injuries, you may not know the extent of the costs necessary for your medical treatment or therapy. You may also need to include lost wages in your claim for the time you couldn’t work because you were injured.
It may often be in your best interest to wait until you know the full extent of your medical bills, losses, and damages before accepting a settlement offer. Your attorney may also be able to help you build a stronger case to seek the maximum amount of compensation you may be entitled to. While building a case with your attorney may take longer than accepting a quick settlement from an insurance agency, you may often be better able to successfully pursue the compensation you are entitled to for the accident.
