Making the Impossible Possible

Maryland Car Accident Lawyers 

Proudly Serving Clients Throughout Bethesda

If you or any member of your family has recently been injured in a motor vehicle accident, don’t say anything to anyone about what may have caused the accident or your injuries until after you’ve talked to an attorney. Why? In Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C., there’s a strong chance that you won’t be able to recover so much as a dime if you admit or say something that indicates you shared some of the blame for the accident. 

According to the Maryland Department of Transportation, Maryland is known as an “at-fault” state when it comes to motor vehicle accidents. This means that the individual responsible for the accident pays for any damages caused. At Rowe Weinstein & Sohn, PLLC, we can protect your legal claims and help you obtain the compensation you deserve. We do our own thorough investigation and carefully review all the evidence and circumstances surrounding your accident or injuries. We advocate aggressively on your behalf in and out of the courtroom. If you cannot come to us, one of our Maryland car accident lawyers will come to you. We may be able to meet you at places like home or at the hospital. 

Don’t hesitate to call (301) 450-5742 or contact us for immediate legal help after a motor vehicle accident. We serve clients throughout Montgomery County, as well as Prince George’s, Baltimore, Annapolis, and Frederick Counties.

What Types of Motor Vehicle Accidents Does Your Firm Handle?

Here’s a brief snapshot of our practice and how we can help you after almost any type of motor vehicle accident:

  • Car Accidents. Even a low-speed car accident can cause permanent injuries. Our lawyers work hard to see that you receive fair compensation.
  • Truck Accidents. Defendants and their insurers will work hard to limit your recovery after a truck accident. We do everything possible to make sure they don’t succeed.
  • Motorcycle accidents. Motorcycle accident victims are often hurt a second time by negative stereotypes and assumptions. Our attorneys make certain the truth gets told.
  • Pedestrian Accidents. More often than not, at-fault drivers and their insurance companies will try to blame an injured bicyclist or pedestrian for an accident. We fight to stop them.
  • Bus Accidents. Accidents involving buses and other types of public transportation buses can pose special challenges. We have the experience and resources needed to prevail.
  • Uninsured and Underinsured Motorists. In addition to pursuing legal claims against at-fault drivers and their insurance companies, we also resolve uninsured and underinsured motorist claims related to motor vehicle accidents.

How Do Maryland Courts View Car Accident Injuries?

Car accidents are very commonplace occurrences, but that does not mean that the law treats car accident injuries lightly. 

The speed and force behind many accidents leave drivers and passengers in serious pain and the causes of those injuries often come down to one of a host of reasons, including:

  • Inattentive and distracted driving, especially since the advent of cellphones and texting
  • Inappropriately maintained vehicles or defective cars
  • Drivers failing to account for dangerous road conditions such as ice and snow
  • Drunk or intoxicated driving

If your injuries are the result of another person’s failure to drive safely, you may have a legal claim that can provide for your medical care and other needs, ranging from setting broken bones to long-lasting brain damage. We have the resources and experience necessary to pursue optimal compensation.

What Are UM & UIM Insurance Claims?

Automobile insurance can be expensive – especially for new drivers and people who have less-than-spotless driving records. In fact, even many of those who qualify for lower-risk rates choose to carry only the minimum liability coverage required by law in order to save money. As a result, there are more and more accidents involving drivers with too little insurance or no insurance at all. Uninsured (UM) and underinsured motorist (UIM) coverage is a solution to this problem. Unfortunately, UM and UIM insurance claims are often difficult to collect on without the assistance of experienced legal counsel. Although it is required in only a handful of states, uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage is a wise investment – especially when you consider the high cost of treating even very minor injuries. 

Our best advice is to purchase as much of this coverage as you can afford. In addition to the benefits it can provide you if you are injured in a car, truck, or motorcycle accident – you may also be able to make a UM or UIM insurance claim for injuries resulting from bicycle or pedestrian accidents. At Rowe, Weinstein & Sohn, PLLC, we can deal directly with your insurance company and make certain you receive the benefits you have been paying premiums for and to which you are entitled under the terms of your insurance policy. Simply stated, do not take “no” for an answer from your insurance company when it comes to a UM or UIM claim. The last thing that we would like to mention here is that UM and UIM policies are complex areas of insurance with very specific rules and procedures that must be followed. For this reason and more, the smartest course of action you can take is to hire an experienced attorney (like the ones you will find at our firm) to handle this matter for you.

Common Questions About Car Accidents

After an accident, you may have many questions about what to expect and what you should do next. We can help. With decades of combined legal experience, our attorneys can answer your questions. The following are examples of the common questions we hear.

How long will my car accident take?

The length of your case will depend on several factors, including how serious your accident was and the extent of your injuries. Severe injuries can take time for doctors to properly diagnose, then they must develop a comprehensive treatment plan. You must understand all these factors to ensure that you receive an amount that will cover your costs in the long term. In addition, if you decide to go to trial, your case may take longer.

What if I can't go back to work after my accident?

As you recover from your injury, you may be worried about your future, as well as your current expenses. You can claim lost wages as part of your damages. If you face a permanent injury that leaves you disabled, you may need to seek disability benefits.

What if I lost a loved one in the accident?

Losing someone to a negligent driver is particularly painful. In addition, you likely have costs associated with medical bills, funeral expenses, and perhaps a lost income. Though nothing can replace a loved one, certain family members can bring a wrongful death claim to compensate them for their loss.

After a car crash, where do I go for help?

A serious car accident can add an enormous amount of stress to your life, even if your injuries are not terribly serious. There are basic issues to deal with – scheduling doctor appointments, paying for medical treatment, time away from work and the lost wages that come with it, and trying to go about the business of life with a car that has been totaled or seriously damaged. We can assist you after a car, truck, motorcycle, or another type of accident. We also can help you find treatment for a variety of injuries after your accident.
