Auto Accidents

A car crash can change everything in a matter of seconds. Whether it’s a fender bender or a devastating collision, the aftermath often brings more questions than answers. How will you cover medical bills? What if you can’t work? Will the insurance company treat you fairly? At the Law Office of Maria R. Alaimo, we understand the emotional, physical, and financial toll an auto accident can take—and we’re here to help you move forward with confidence.

What Counts as an Auto Accident Case?

Auto accident claims can involve a wide range of scenarios, including:

  • Rear-end collisions
  • Head-on crashes
  • Intersection accidents
  • Distracted or drunk driving
  • Rideshare accidents (Uber/Lyft)
  • Commercial vehicle or truck accidents
  • Pedestrian and cyclist accidents

If another driver’s negligence caused your injuries, you have the right to pursue compensation. Whether the crash involved a texting driver, poor road maintenance, or a speeding truck, we can help uncover the truth and build your case.

Understanding Auto Accidents - Clarity, Care, and the Legal Support You Deserve

Why Auto Accident Cases Matter

Insurance companies work hard to minimize payouts, often at the expense of your recovery. The law, however, is on your side. These cases aren’t just about money—they’re about making sure your life isn’t defined by someone else’s mistake.

Holding negligent drivers accountable also helps make the roads safer for everyone.

What Can You Be Compensated For?

Auto accident victims often face far more than vehicle damage. If you were injured in a crash, your compensation may include:

  • Emergency room visits, surgeries, and follow-up care
  • Physical therapy and rehabilitation
  • Lost wages and future loss of income
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress or trauma
  • Loss of enjoyment of life
  • Property damage (car repairs or replacement)

Our job is to understand every detail of your losses—both immediate and long-term—so we can pursue the full value of what you’ve lost.

What to Do After a Car Accident

Seek Medical Care

Your health is the top priority. Even minor symptoms should be evaluated by a doctor.

Call the Police

A formal accident report provides crucial evidence for your case.

Take Photos

Document the vehicles, license plates, the scene, and any visible injuries.

Exchange Information

Get the name, contact info, and insurance details of the other driver(s).

Don’t Admit Fault

Be calm and factual, but avoid taking blame—it’s not always clear in the moment.
