We would like to offer our condolences to the family of Joseph Anthony Harris. Our thoughts are with them at this time.

Fatal Pedestrian Accidents in Alabama

In Alabama, an average of 950 people lose their lives in auto accidents each year. These accidents are often preventable, but we continue to see families forced to endure the overwhelming consequences of other drivers’ actions. In many cases, drivers engage in reckless behaviors, like distracted or drunk driving, while operating their vehicles. Just taking your eyes off the road for a few seconds can have a life-changing impact on those sharing the road. The unfortunate truth is that more than 80% of traffic-related incidents are a result of drivers’ actions. In many cases, victims who are outside of vehicles are fatally injured by reckless drivers.

When victims lose their lives in accidents caused by the negligent or careless actions of other motorists, it is crucial that their families contact a wrongful death attorney in Alabama at their earliest convenience. Families may be entitled to compensation from those at-fault to alleviate the costs they face moving forward. A knowledgeable legal team, like the attorneys at the Law Office of Dwayne L.

    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.
