Fatal Car Accidents in Birmingham

Collision data that has been tracked during the past decade reveals that the car accident-fatality rate in Alabama is routinely higher than the countrywide average. The fact that about 50% of the state’s accident fatalities were not wearing their seat belt during their accident is a major contributor to this higher-than-average death rate. 

Tens of thousands of people are hospitalized each year in our state for debilitating injuries like broken bones, spinal cord injuries, neck injuries, and traumatic brain injuries. In many cases, victims require emergency medical assistance and have to spend weeks in area hospitals to recover. After being released from hospitals, victims have to continue going to therapy for months. 

Even though we would like to believe that every person is able to recover from their injuries, thousands of people sustain injuries that leave them permanently disabled. The mental, physical, and financial consequences of accidents are often overwhelming for victims and their families. 

When people are injured in accidents as a result of other drivers’ negligence, they may be able to reach out to a car accident attorney in Alabama to explore legal options available to them. In many cases, victims have legal avenues available to help them secure compensation after being harmed.

    Rafiq A.

    My family and I met Attorney Dwayne Brown after the unfortunate accident involving my niece. Attorney Brown did an exceptional job representing my family. He was the consummate professional, and treated my family with the utmost dignity and respect. As a result of his representation, my family was able to achieve a substantial settlement in our case. Although we obviously did not get our loved back, we are prayerful that we met Attorney Brown. My family would highly recommend Attorney Brown to anyone in a similar situation.

    Michael L.

    An excellent and professional lawyer. He took on a car accident case on my behalf, worked with me from across the country, and was just as vigorous in his pursuit of justice on day 912 as he was on day 1.

    Nikia S.

    Attorney Brown represent me on a case involving a motor vehicle. Another attorney indicated they could not help and I was recommended to attorney Brown by a well-respected member of my community. Attorney Brown resolved my case to my absolute satisfaction and did an excellent job. I highly recommend his services.
