Aggressive D.C., Maryland and Virginia advocates represent clients injured in car accidents

The financial costs of an accident can take a heavy toll on its victims. Our knowledge of District of Columbia, Virginia and Maryland statutes and case law empowers us to fight for the compensation you deserve. At Baker Simmons, Attorneys at Law, we represent clients involved in accidents caused by, amongst other things:

• Distracted driving — Drivers who fail to pay attention to the road put others in danger. Texting, talking on a cellphone or using a GPS are just some of the distractions that can lead to car accidents.
• Reckless driving — Excessive speeding or failing to follow other traffic rules can result in devastating collisions. We examine police reports and witness testimony to substantiate your claim.
• Drunk driving — There is no excuse for taking the wheel when impaired by alcohol. Our attorneys go after drunk drivers who put other’s lives at risk.
• Defective auto parts — Automakers who fail to alert their customers to defects can be held liable for the problems caused by their negligence. Similarly, if a driver doesn’t attempt to remedy a known problem with their vehicle, they may face repercussions when an accident occurs.

Our attorneys are known as skilled and tenacious advocates for auto accident victims. District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia law places time limits on filing accident claims, so it is important to seek legal help immediately following a car accident so that evidence can be gathered and presented promptly to your insurer.

 Tenacious lawyers handle insurance claims and disputes. When you file a claim with an insurance company, getting the monetary compensation you deserve can be a struggle. Insurance companies, their adjusters and their attorneys are determined to pay the minimum amount of accident compensation possible. In some cases, the insurance company’s resistance rises to the level of actionable bad faith. Our attorneys help clients to make strong claims and oppose insurers who try to deny them.

To establish liability for the accident and substantiate the severity of your injuries, we bring in top experts in various fields, such as trauma doctors, chiropractors, forensics engineers, mechanics, and collision reconstruction analysts, who help build your case for the best possible settlement. These experts will deliver compelling testimony about the cause of your accident and the extent of your injuries, enhancing your prospects for a full, fair recovery.
