Accidents are, well, accidents. They can happen to anyone and at any time. But, what you do after an accident is in your control and can make your post-accident journey easier and better for you and your family.

In order to pursue a personal injury settlement there must be another party responsible for the accident who is able to personally, or more commonly through insurance, provide compensation. You must also have suffered damages in the form of a physical injury or emotional trauma.

FAQ

What should I do if I get in an auto accident in CT?
Car accidents happen, and it's normal to feel overwhelmed in the aftermath. The first step is to call 911, especially if the accident has resulted in property loss or requires medical attention. The police will write an official accident report, which will be very useful after you hire a Connecticut car accident lawyer to pursue your case.
Is Connecticut a no-fault state for car accidents?
Connecticut is an at-fault state, which means that the driver responsible for the accident will be required to compensate the other party for medical expenses, property damage, lost income, and more.
What is the average settlement for a car accident in Connecticut?
According to the Insurance Information Institute, the average settlement in 2020 for bodily injury was $20,235, while the average for property damage was $4,711. In personal injury, 75% of cases settle for under $30,000, while others can reach the millions of dollars.
We know that it's hard to put a number on your recovery. Mighty Law team will help you evaluate your case while considering medical expenses, property damage, lost income, and other factors. This way, you can focus on moving forward with dignity and support.
Is hiring a car accident lawyer in Connecticut necessary?
While you aren't required to hire a CT car accident attorney after an incident, a personal injury attorney can provide crucial assistance in addressing subsequent medical bills and property damage. An experienced Connecticut car accident lawyer will help you determine who is at fault in the accident and also use their extensive knowledge of the industry (and Connecticut state regulations) to help you avoid lowball offers and unfair settlements from insurance companies.
How much does a car accident lawyer in Connecticut cost through Mighty Law?
Following standard practice in personal injury, Mighty Law only charges fees if you win your car accident case.
But: we strive to go above and beyond “standard practice.” We price our legal services at 10% lower than industry standard Connecticut car accident attorneys while holding ourselves to a higher ethical standard. If we help you reach a settlement, we'll charge 30% of the gross amount..
What does the process of working with Mighty Law look like?
Once you reach out through our online contact form or by phone, your Mighty Law representatives will get in touch. In the initial screening, we'll get to know you-your goals, concerns, and story, and assess whether your case is a fit.
Then, you'll work with a dedicated case manager from our law office to help collect evidence and documentation. We'll then file a demand letter with the insurance company and begin the negotiation process.
How long will it take to investigate a car accident claim in CT?
The national average for car accident settlements in 2022 was slightly under 11 months. That being said, the timeline for your specific car accident case will vary. Your Mighty Law personal injury attorney will work on building your car accident claim from the first moment you reach out, keeping a detailed eye on all the proceedings so you can focus on recovering.
What is the time limit for filing a car accident claim?
The deadline for filing a car accident claim is typically two years from the date of the incident. It's important to file your claim as early as possible because time is often a critical factor in these cases. As an accident victim, if you believe that you have a claim arising from distracted driving or negligence, we recommend that you contact our law firm right away.
Who pays for medical bills in a car crash in CT?
Since Connecticut is an at-fault state, the responsible party will ultimately pay for all expenses incurred during the accident. However, that doesn't help you cover the bills immediately after the incident. But don't worry—Mighty Law can help with that too!
We'll help you find a provider who won't require a payment until your case settles if you can't otherwise use health insurance to pay the bills. And if there is a question of fault, a Mighty Law Connecticut car accident attorney will help you navigate the road ahead.
