Types of Automobile Accidents Print E-mail
There are many different types of automobile accidents that LawLeaf handles. Prior to applying for lawsuit funding you must first have the legal representation of an attorney. Once you've hired an attorney you may qualify for a settlement advance.

When LawLeaf reviews automobile accidents there are certain factors that are important during the funding process. The evaluation process includes how the accident occurred, whom is responsible for the accident, the strength of a case and type of accident. 

There are many different types of automobile accidents. The accidents that occur most frequently include:

  • Rear-end collisions - These accidents typically occur due to tailgaiting, road rage, changes of traffic patterns and weather conditions.
  • Front-end collisions - These accidents occur due to incoming traffic (changing pattern conditions), one way streets, parking lot accidents and intersections.
  • Side Impact collisions - Side impact collisions most frequently occur at intersections, running stop signs and traffic lights.
  • Rollovers - Typically involving an SUV or tractor trailer

While an automobile accident is never expected there are thousands each day. In the last 10 years we have seen an increase in the size of automobiles throughout the United States. Over the last year we've now seen an increase of smaller vehicles like hybrids and Smart Cars. These automobiles are being made smaller due to high gas prices. Unfortunately, while manufactures are making these cars smaller with better fuel efficiency, there is also a certain risk of injury due to their size.

When a smaller vehicle such as a smart car collides with a larger vehicle such as a Hummer, SUV or truck the accident could be catastrophic. 

Automobile accidents can also occur due to the design and manufacturing of an automobile. These types of automobiles are most often referred to as a "lemon."  A lemon can include:

  • Faulty seat belts
  • Mechanical problems
  • Faulty Engines
  • Electircal problems
  • Fire & burn hazards
  • Faulty parts
  • Restricted vision - rear view, side view & mirror placement

If you have been injured in an automobile accident due to the negligence of another or a manufacturing defect, it is important that you seek immediate medical attention.
