Motor Vehicle Accident Legal Information

At my practice, I help victims of negligent car accidents and truck accidents obtain compensation for their losses and suffering.

Unraveling the true causes and assigning liability where it belongs, is not always easy for a personal injury lawyer. To get to the truth, I use some of the nation's top accident causation, engineering, and highway safety experts to provide insight, and when needed, compelling testimony in court.

At trial, Keith was extremely well prepared and presented a persuasive account of the facts with integrity and emotion.

The opposing lawyer often looked embarrassed when Keith's far greater preparation was obvious to the jury.

Topics in motor vehicle accident law of a general nature are discussed below.

Motor Vehicle Accidents - An Overview

Motor vehicle accidents cause the loss of time, property, health and even life. Such accidents occur because of elements including driver error, negligence, distracted driving, manufacturing defects and dangerous weather. No matter what the specific cause or result, a car crash can turn a normal day into a prolonged struggle. Speaking with a lawyer can help you sort out your rights, your options and your future. Call today to schedule a consultation with an experienced attorney to find out more.

Auto Accident Injuries and Compensation

An individual who has been injured in an automobile accident may be able to seek monetary compensation for injuries and damages. Cases are fact specific, typically with complex issues of proof and fault in dispute. An experienced personal injury attorney can help you sort out your legal options.

Insurance Claim Do's and Don'ts

When you need to make an auto insurance claim, you should proceed with care. Your actions may have a significant influence on the amount of compensation you receive.

Uninsured and Underinsured Motorists

When a driver refuses or is unable to carry proper motor vehicle insurance, that driver puts more than just him- or herself at risk. If the driver injures another person, the insurance will be inadequate to cover the damages. Injured parties, however, may be covered by their own insurance policies; uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage protects accident victims in these cases.

No-Fault Insurance

When a driver has been in an accident, no-fault auto insurance allows the driver to collect from his or her insurance company no matter who was at fault. Not every state has a no-fault insurance structure, but those that do have very specific laws governing when, how much and for how long the injured party may collect.

What to Do If You Are in a Motor Vehicle Accident

When you are in an accident, you have immediate, important decisions to make. For the crucial decisions you have to make later on, consult with a personal injury attorney.

Testimonials

  • I was a client of Mr. Halpern, and I was fighting a First Degree Murder charge, along with two attempted murders and a firearm charge. There were times when I thought Mr. Halpern was against me, and trying to sell me out. But in reality, that was never the case. I realized that after a few arguments, and his telling me that he wasn’t going to give up on me. I realized that I was lucky to have someone who wanted nothing but the best for me. I was guilty of everything I was charged with. Still, Mr. Halpern fought for me like I wasn’t. No matter what I wanted to do, he was riding with me. Trial or getting a deal, he just wanted me to know what was at stake. At the end of the day, I took a deal. To be honest, it was the best deal ever for what I was facing. I would recommend Mr. Halpern any day to someone in a situation like mine. In my opinion, if you are looking for a lawyer and you are on their website, it’s important to look at how many wins they have. In my eyes, if somebody took a deal that can still be a win. It was for me. You should also check out what some of his previous clients have to say about him. I’m writing about him, so that should tell you something. I’m just blessed I was one of his clients. Mr. Halpern would never understand how grateful I am that I was represented by him. So if you’re looking for a lawyer who is going to put in overtime to make sure you come out on top, I would recommend Keith Halpern!

  • First, I would like to say that Attorney Keith Halpern saved my life, legally. The District Attorney wanted to give me a life sentence. Due to Mr. Halpern’s persistence, I was found Not Guilty by Reason of Mental Illness by a jury. Keith always kept me up to date with the way he was going to strategize my defense. He hired experts who aided in my case and were excellent witnesses. Throughout my trial, he would always ask the questions that needed to be asked. I never felt that he left anything out. He was extremely thorough. I would highly recommend using the law office of Attorney Halpern. He is very effective at achieving the best result from what could be the worst situation of your life. I owe him my life and I am extremely grateful. Thank you for reading my story and I wish you the best.
