Injured in a car accident? Find out how much your case could be worth
Getting injured or otherwise harmed due to someone else’s actions or negligence is at the very least a frustrating experience.

Our advocacy and support team at Crash Guru will help you navigate your claim, boosting your odds of getting the compensation you deserve.

The financial consequences of an injury can be very significant. Along with facing medical bills, you may also struggle financially if, for example, your injury has forced you to miss work.
You deserve compensation for your financial woes. That said, you may also be entitled to compensation for any physical or emotional distress resulting from your injury. We’ll show you how to properly calculate just how much compensation you should receive.
It’s not always clear who should be responsible for providing compensation in a personal injury case. Establishing liability can be confusing if multiple parties were involved in an incident.
Regardless, the burden to establish liability is on you. That’s why it helps to consult with experts who know how to both determine who is liable and how to prove their liability effectively.
There are three common types of injuries people are found liable for in civil cases:
Bodily harm
Bodily harm is overt damage to a person. This is what we think of when we imagine auto accident claims or slip-and-fall cases.
Pain and suffering
Pain and suffering can be the direct result of an injury. The loss of a hand, for example, is worth much more to an injured person than just the medical expenses required.
Emotional distress
Emotional distress is the product of someone’s actions harming another person on a psychological level, so much so that they can no longer function as well as they did.
Each state has different laws around personal injuries and lawsuits. Protect your injury rights and learn more about your individual state’s rules.
Without insurance on your side, it can feel like you’re stuck dealing with your injuries alone after an accident. That’s not the case. Learn more about your options for getting help outside of insurance after an accident.

Pursuing compensation isn’t a guarantee you’ll actually get the full amount to which you’re entitled. It’s extremely important to take certain key steps after a personal injury accident.

With Crash Guru’s advice, you’ll be more confident you know what to do should you ever find yourself in this type of situation.
