Trusted Legal Advice After A Motor Vehicle Accident
When traveling on Wisconsin’s highways, no driver thinks they will be in a collision. However, if you or a loved one is involved in a motor vehicle accident, it is critical to contact a lawyer who is committed to working for your best interests.
For more than 40 years, the attorneys at Alpert & Fellows, LLC, have assisted victims of motor vehicle accidents in Sheboygan, Green Bay, Manitowoc and in communities along the shores of Lake Michigan. No matter how serious or complex your situation is, our attorneys can help. We have more than 70 years of combined legal experience resolving a full spectrum of cases involving motor vehicle collisions, including:
- Automobile accidents: Cars, SUVs, minivans and pickup trucks can be severely damaged in an accident, leading to serious injuries for passengers.
- Trucking accidents: Large trucks, semis, garbage trucks and delivery trucks often cause catastrophic or fatal accidents for people in passenger vehicles.
- Motorcycle and motorbike accidents: With little to protect them from larger vehicles, motorcyclists often suffer severe injuries that can lead to wrongful death.
- Bicycle accidents: Adults and children can be hurt or killed if a motor vehicle hits them on a bike. You will need a tough lawyer to protect your rights.
- Pedestrian accidents: Perhaps the most vulnerable accident victims are pedestrians. Whether crossing the street, walking through a parking lot or in an alley, they are at risk for serious or fatal injuries.
Holding Negligent Drivers Accountable
When determining negligence in a motor vehicle accident, Wisconsin law uses a comparative negligence standard. This means that the court will determine how much each party involved in the accident is at fault.
Determining comparative negligence can be subjective. Our attorneys have extensive experience resolving motor vehicle cases. With decades of collective experience, we understand what it takes to build a strong case, and we will diligently pursue justice against the negligent parties. You will benefit from our one-on-one representation that is focused specifically on your case. We are proud to help Wisconsin drivers, cyclists and pedestrians who are injured by a negligent motorist. We also represent people who suffer injuries while traveling through Wisconsin.
Our attorneys have worked on a broad range of cases involving negligent drivers, including:
- Accidents caused by drunk drivers: These accidents often include the drunk driver running other cars off the road, speeding and taking their eyes off of the road.
- Drugged driving accidents: Similar to drunk drivers, drugged drivers can be drowsy, confused and have impaired motor skills behind the wheel.
- Accidents caused by texting and driving or other distracted behaviors: Distracted drivers are not focused on the road. They take their eyes and mind off the road for longer periods of time, resulting in running stoplights, crashing into the rear of cars and causing T-bone collisions.
- Reckless driving accidents: Reckless drivers tend to use excessive speed, drive too fast for weather conditions or traffic, fail to see traffic lights and signs and make dangerous lane switches. Injuries to other drivers are typically very serious.
Additionally, in situations where the negligent motorists were either uninsured or underinsured, we will aggressively seek to recover full compensation for your injuries, lost wages, property damage, and pain and suffering.
