FAQ

What should I do if I get in a car accident in Maryland?

Accidents can be complicated and dangerous. In the immediate aftermath, it's important to get to safety and seek help. Request immediate medical attention if necessary and notify law enforcement. The police can help you write an official report, which will almost definitely come in handy if you pursue a personal injury settlement.

If you're able, you might want to collect photo evidence of the crash, road conditions, and traffic signs, as well as witness statements and other relevant documents.

What is the average settlement for a car accident in Maryland?

Car accident settlements tend to vary widely, since some factors may be out of your control—such as how large the auto insurance policy is of the car that hit you. While 75% of personal injury cases settle for less than $30,000, some car accident claims may reach the millions. It's important to understand the value of your case based on your medical expenses and the facts of the incident.

Is hiring a car accident lawyer in Maryland necessary?

No, it is not strictly necessary to hire a Maryland car accident lawyer. However, many car accidents can result in significant property damage and medical expenses. This may entitle you to a cash settlement to compensate you for lost wages, pain and suffering, and more.

In these cases, consulting with an experienced team of Maryland auto accident attorneys can be beneficial to navigate the claims process and seek fair compensation.

How much does it typically cost to hire a car accident lawyer in Maryland?

Attorney fees for car accident cases can vary. Some lawyers charge a contingency fee, which means they take a percentage of the final settlement amount only if you win your case. Others might offer different fee structures. It's important to discuss fees with any potential attorney to understand how they charge.

Remember to compare the pricing structure and ensure it aligns with your financial situation. You can find more information on typical fees for personal injury cases in our directory.

What does the process look like to get started with filing a car accident claim in Maryland?

The process typically begins with a consultation to understand the details of your car accident case. If you decide to proceed, you'll sign a retainer agreement with the attorney you choose, which should specify the payment terms.

You'll work with your attorney to gather documentation, such as medical records and evidence from the accident. Your attorney will then assemble your claim and may file a demand letter with the insurance company. If a settlement is not reached, your attorney can guide you through the process of filing a lawsuit.

How long will it take to investigate a car accident claim in Maryland?

The time it takes to investigate a car accident claim can vary. It involves collecting the police report, any available video or witness evidence, and monitoring your medical treatment. Once treatment is complete, medical records are collected, and a notice is filed with any involved insurance companies. This process can take several weeks, but your attorney will aim to make it as efficient as possible.

What happens once my car accident case is settled?

Upon reaching a settlement, your attorney will provide you with a settlement statement that outlines the gross settlement amount, and itemizes the deductions for legal fees, medical bills, and any other deferred payments. After these are settled, you will receive the remaining net amount.
