Head-On Vehicle Collisions

Head-on collisions are among the most dangerous of all car accidents. With the extreme forces involved, when one driver leaves another helpless to avoid a head-on collision, the consequences will often include permanent physical injuries and a lifetime of pain and suffering. Additionally, while head-on collisions account for just two percent of all motor vehicle collisions, statistics show that they are the cause of approximately 10 percent of all accident-related fatalities.

If you have been seriously injured or lost a family member as a result of a head-on collision in Florida, we want to help you. Our attorneys have decades of experience representing accident victims and their families, and we have recovered millions of dollars for our clients’ accident-related losses. You do not deserve to bear the financial burdens of someone else’s tragic mistake. We can negotiate with the insurance companies to secure maximum compensation for your injuries and losses; and, if the insurance companies refuse to settle, we will go to court and fight for your rights at trial.

Financial Compensation for Head-On Collisions in Florida

The financial and non-financial losses from a head-on collision can be substantial. While most accident victims focus on the immediate effects of their injuries or their loved one’s death, it is the long-term effects that can have the greatest overall impact for injured individuals and grieving families.

Compensation for Traumatic Injuries from Head-On Collisions

In non-fatal head-on accident cases, the compensation available to injured drivers and passengers will typically include:

  • Current and future medical bills and prescription costs
  • Other current and future out-of-pocket expenses
  • Loss of income
  • Loss of future earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering
  • Scarring and disfigurement
  • Emotional trauma
  • Loss of society, support, companionship and enjoyment of life

Compensation for Fatal Head-On Collisions

If you have suffered the tragedy of losing a loved one in a head-on collision, our attorneys can help you and your family pursue a claim for wrongful death. In Florida, the damages available in wrongful death claims can include:

  • Medical bills for your loved one’s treatment
  • Lost income and loss of future earnings
  • Lost health insurance, Social Security and other benefits
  • Funeral and burial expenses
  • Pain and suffering
  • Loss of companionship, support, guidance, love and affection
  • Loss of childcare, housekeeping, security and other services
  • Any damages your loved one could have recovered had he or she survived the accident

Regardless of the type of claim you need to pursue, protecting your rights will require experienced and committed legal representation.
