An Alabama Personal Injury Law Firm Ready To Fight For You
Knowing how to protect your legal and financial rights in the aftermath of an Alabama car accident can make a large difference in your recovery. Insurance companies are businesses that will look to settle quickly for less than the full amount you deserve. You may not know where to go to get quality medical care or how you will pay for it.
Unless you have a trial law firm on your side, insurance companies do not have the incentive to negotiate in good faith with you. That is where we come in.

Frequently Asked Questions About Alabama Car Accidents
The days, weeks and months following a car accident can be incredibly confusing. Here are some of the most common questions we answer:
What do most car accident injuries pay in Alabama?
Every situation is different. The compensation you can receive is directly related to your losses, such as your property damage, medical bills, lost wages and more. You are also entitled to noneconomic damages, such as pain and suffering or lost enjoyment of life. In general, the more severe your injuries, the greater the compensation you are due.
What do I do right after a car accident in Alabama?
Call 911 and ask for a police officer and an ambulance. You need to make sure that the accident is documented and – above all – that any injuries you have are treated. If possible, use your phone’s camera to document the scene, including both vehicles, debris in the road and the road conditions.
What does it cost to talk to a car accident attorney in Birmingham, Alabama?
It costs absolutely nothing to schedule a no-obligation consultation about your car accident claim with an attorney at Griffith, Lowry & Meherg. We will answer your questions, help you understand the strengths and weaknesses of your case, and determine if our firm is right for your needs.
What do I do when the insurance company wants to talk to me about the accident?
Be very cautious about speaking with an insurance adjuster before speaking with a knowledgeable car accident attorney. If you are contacted by the other party’s insurance company, politely tell them you do not consent to being recorded and reach out to an attorney before discussing your injuries. It is far better to let a car accident attorney do the talking for you so that you cannot be manipulated into saying something that could later be used to cast blame for the wreck back on you.
