In Nebraska, car accidents can result from a number of factors: speeding, cell phone usage, reckless driving, negligence, drugs, alcohol, defective products, poor crashworthiness, and other similar factors. But no matter what their cause, every type of auto accident can have serious effects.
Consider that, nationwide, in 2004 there were 6.2 million police-reported motor vehicle crashes. According to the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA), in 2004, speeding was a contributing factor in 30 percent of all fatal crashes, and 13,192 lives were lost in speeding-related crashes. In 2004 alone more than 9,000 people died in rollover crashes. At the Pearson Law Office, our auto accident and wrongful death attorneys are poised and ready to represent such clients and to help them recover their losses, whether it is to compensate for lost wages, medical bills, pain and suffering, or other damages.
