A Track Record of Success Verdicts and Settlements for Car Accident Victims
$246,948
Our client suffered hip damage from a car accident that resulted in the need for a replacement and medical expenses that exceeded $100,000. After obtaining the full limits of our client's policy, our personal injury lawyer took the client’s own insurance carrier to court after they refused to pay more. We won a jury verdict in favor of our client.
$125,000
We secured $125,000 for a client who was injured in a double rear-end auto accident. After the original at-fault driver fled the scene, a second car rear-ended our client’s vehicle while she was still in it. Our client suffered a concussion and injuries to her face and ankle. Our car accident attorney filed insurance claims against both of the at-fault drivers, obtaining the maximum amounts available under the insurance policy limits.
$125,000
Our car accident lawyer obtained a settlement of $125,000 for another client who was also rear-ended. When our client exited her car to view the damage, she was struck by another car. She sustained injuries to her hip and dealt with ongoing emotional trauma because of the accident. Our lawyers obtained the policy limit on both at-fault drivers' insurance.
Motor Vehicle Accidents Occur Too Often in Frederick, MD
With a complex network of highways, Frederick is a major trucking route. Because of the large volume of traffic from commercial trucks and other vehicles, accidents occur fairly often, resulting in property damage, serious injuries, and even death. Some recent accidents that have occurred in the area include:
Tractor-Trailer Crash Closes I-70
On December 18, 2023, a tractor-trailer hit bridge construction, knocking metal scaffolding into westbound I-70. At least 12 vehicles were damaged and officials had to close westbound I-70 and Maryland Route 75 temporarily.
Car Crash With Injuries and Fatalities
On August 5, 2023, a woman lost her life on I-70 near Braddock Heights when her Toyota Corolla was hit head-on by a Mercedes that crossed the median. The driver of the Mercedes then hit a truck head-on. The woman in the Toyota Corolla was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver of the Mercedes was flown to a trauma center and the driver of the truck was taken to a local hospital.
Car Collision Results in Death
On October 18, 2023, a 20-year-old man lost his life in a car accident at the intersection of Buckeystown Pike and Executive Way, where another man lost his life just two weeks prior.

View on GoogleUnderstanding Contributory Negligence What This Means for Maryland Residents
Maryland is one of five states to put a contributory negligence doctrine into effect. Under this state law, you can't legally recover compensation from an at-fault party if your own actions also contributed to the accident. If your actions contributed to your accident in any way, your car accident case will likely be thrown out. If you think your actions contributed to your accident, but you're not certain, reach out to our law firm so we can determine the best course of action.
What Your Compensation Can Cover
Any compensation you recover in the form of a verdict or settlement can go toward your:
Injuries from a car accident can result in long-term injuries that come with mounting medical bills. Compensation can go toward your past, present, or future medical bills, physical therapy, and more.
Enduring a car accident can have an impact on your mental state. Your compensation will account for any psychological treatment you need in the aftermath of an accident.
Personal injuries sustained in a car accident can result in the need to take off work, causing you to miss out on wages you use to care for your family. In some cases, injuries are so severe that you can't return to work at all. A personal injury claim can allow you to secure compensation for the time you missed and projected wages you would have earned if you were able.
Car accidents can harm more than just your person — they can end up totaling your car and damaging your other belongings. Our personal injury attorneys in Rockville can pursue compensation for any property damage you may have incurred during the accident.

Don't Speak to Insurance Companies Let Us Do the Talking
After a car accident, you will likely be contacted by an insurance company representing the other driver hoping to get a statement from you. Don't say anything to them or accept any of their offers. Insurance companies are looking out for their bottom line, and that means using your own words against you and getting you to settle for less than you deserve.
Instead, put a car accident lawyer on your side. Our Rockville law firm serving Frederick will handle all communication with the insurance companies to get you a fair settlement. Get started by reaching out today.
