We will work to identify the at-fault party
Head-on collisions cause plenty of damage that deserves financial compensation. Fault must be identified and strongly proven. As your attorney, we launch an investigation to discover evidence that we use in support of your case, including:
- Traffic laws and violations: Traffic laws play a significant role in liability. Violations such as speeding, running a red light, or failing to yield the right-of-way can establish negligence on the part of the at-fault driver.
- Eyewitness testimony: Eyewitness accounts can provide valuable information about the events leading up to the collision and the collision itself. Their statements can help determine which driver caused the accident since they are an unbiased third party.
- Evidence: Physical evidence at the accident scene, including skid marks, vehicle damage, and road debris, can provide important clues. It can help determine the point of impact, speed, and other critical details that aid in determining fault.
- Accident reconstruction: In complex cases, we may consult with accident reconstruction experts to analyze the collision and provide an interpretation of the accident. They use advanced techniques, including computer simulations, to recreate the accident scenario and help paint a clear picture of what truly happened.
- Police report: The police officer who responds to the accident scene will prepare an accident report. This report may include their observations, statements from involved parties, any traffic violations noted, and other details surrounding the accident. It can serve as essential evidence in determining fault.
- Medical reports: Medical reports document the extent of the harm you endured from the accident and include a detailed account of your injuries and treatments. This proves the severity of injuries suffered and can help prove the need for higher compensation.

The head-on collision lawsuit process can seem complex but breaking it down into simple steps can help you understand what to expect. The following are general steps involved in a head-on collision lawsuit:
- Initial consultation with an attorney: The first step in the process is to consult with a skilled car accident attorney who specializes in head-on collisions. We will review your case and advise you on the legal options available to you.
- Investigation and gathering evidence: Your attorney will conduct a thorough investigation into the accident, gathering evidence to strengthen your case.
- Insurance company claim: Your attorney can help you with the claim process and handle negotiations with the insurance companies.
- Filing the lawsuit: If negotiations fail to reach a fair settlement, your attorney will file a lawsuit on your behalf. This initiates the legal process and formally notifies the at-fault party that you are taking legal action and seeking compensation for your injuries and damages.
- Discovery phase: During the discovery phase, both parties exchange information, including documents, evidence, and witness statements. This allows each side to gather information to support their arguments.
- Settlement negotiations or trial: In many cases, a settlement can be reached during the negotiation phase. Your attorney will advocate for your best interests and negotiate with the opposing party’s legal representatives. If a settlement cannot be reached, your case may proceed to trial, where a judge or jury will determine the outcome. This is why it is important to have an attorney in your corner with trial experience.
- Resolution: If a settlement is reached or a favorable verdict is obtained at trial, the next step is the resolution of the case. This typically involves the payment of compensation by the at-fault party or their insurance company.
