Who Is Responsible for Blind Spot Accidents?

Many people might be liable for your injuries depending on what happened in your accident. Any accident resulting in injuries may allow victims to qualify for compensation, especially if you can demonstrate another party’s negligence at the time. Parties present at the time of the accident may be liable for your losses, including any of the following:

  • Involved drivers
  • Passengers
  • Pedestrians
  • City or state government entities
  • Property owner or renter
  • Employer or employee on the premises
  • Designer or manufacturer of parts, vehicles, or other equipment
  • Others present

We suggest that you inform your lawyer about anyone present during the accident, including any other details you feel might be significant. Even if the information you share could put you in a negative light, your attorney will utilize all data to discuss the case in your favor. Trust an attorney from Hollis Law Firm to provide the support you need, as we can help you in numerous ways during this challenging time.
