Top 5 Questions About Car Accidents in MD

When it comes to dealing with a car accident there are some things that you should know before you try to go it alone. We can help you out by answering a few of your most commonly asked questions. Take a look at these and then reach out to us with any additional questions you may have.

What Should I Do If I Am in an Auto Accident?

Hopefully, you’ll never be involved in a car accident, but if you are then the first thing you need to do is get to a safe place.

Do not stay in the middle of the roadway if that is where the accident occurred.

If you can’t move your vehicle then get yourself to a safe place and leave the vehicle with its hazard lights on.

Once you get to a safe place you want to call for an ambulance if someone is injured or call the police otherwise to report the accident. From there, wait for the police or ambulance to arrive and take over the scene.

Should I Talk to the Police?

You should talk with the police when they arrive at the scene of the accident. Make sure that you tell them absolutely everything that happened.

Be honest with them. Don’t embellish the story or tell them anything that isn’t true. They will figure out the truth of the situation eventually and it doesn’t look good if you embellish things.

You also want to make sure you tell them any injuries you know of immediately or anywhere that you are experiencing pain as these injuries will be put into the report. This makes it easier for your attorney to fight for those damages at a later time.

When Should I Talk To An Attorney?

You should talk to an attorney as soon as you talk with the police and take care of any injuries that you may have.

Once you’ve done this, calling your Baltimore accident lawyer should be the most important thing.

Even more important, make sure that you explain to your attorney exactly what has happened and let them know exactly how you’re feeling, any injuries and anything you remember about the incident and the people involved. This will help your case go much smoother moving forward.

What Can An Attorney Take Care of For Me?

Your Baltimore car accident lawyer will help you with anything that you may need related to your accident.

That means we can work with your insurance company to find out what you’re entitled to right off the bat.

Then, we can work with you about getting a rental car if needed, getting your vehicle repaired, getting a copy of the police report and even working with the insurance adjuster and the other parties’ insurance.

All you have to do is fill us in on the information and work on getting back to healthy again.

Who Will Take Care of My Medical Expenses?

You can be reimbursed for your medical expenses or have them entirely taken care of for you through your insurance.

This is because of the PIP or Personal Injury Protection insurance that you pay for with your regular insurance.

It doesn’t matter who is at fault for the accident to get this.

It can cover not only hospital bills but also physical therapy, treatment, ambulance and more. You could even be entitled to things like pain and suffering, work loss and more.

All you need to do is let us know what’s going on and we can help you get the money back that you deserve for all of these things.

Top 5 Questions About Work Injuries

Have you been involved in a workplace injury? If you have then you need to know about Baltimore workers’ compensation lawyers. Our team at Githuku Law can help you get the help that you need, no matter what happens.

What Do I Do If I Am Involved in a Workplace Accident?

If you are injured on the job the first thing you need to do is get yourself the medical attention that you need.

Make sure you do whatever you need to get to a safe place and get medical attention from a coworker, supervisor or anyone else and get to a medical professional as soon as possible.

Once you’ve received the medical attention that you need you should make sure the incident is reported to the proper personnel at your facility and then call your attorney. Make sure that you reach out to a lawyer to help you with the next steps.

What if I Don’t Have Any Money to Pay a Lawyer?

You do not need to worry about paying for an attorney when it comes to your workers’ compensation claim.

That’s because the Commission will take care of paying for all of the fees. This money will be paid from the money that you are awarded if your case goes to trial and you are granted your workers’ compensation.

That means you don’t have to pay anything out of pocket and you shouldn’t be concerned about hiring a lawyer at any point. If you need one make sure that you are calling someone at Githuku Law to get help with your case.

How Much Money Am I Entitled to Under Workers’ Compensation?

If you file for workers’ compensation you will receive money after you have missed three days of work.

If you miss at least 15 days of work you will be paid for those three days as well (you will not be paid for those three days if you miss less than 15 days of work).

You may be eligible for what’s called Temporary Total Disability or TTD. This is calculated by taking 2/3 of your average weekly wage. You will not get your full pay amount with workers’ compensation but you can multiply your weekly average by 0.666 to get you TTD and have an idea of what to expect.

Am I Entitled to Workers’ Compensation Benefits?

If you were injured at your workplace while you were working as a result of occupational disease or accidental injury you may be entitled to workers’ compensation benefits.

The best thing that you can do is reach out to a Baltimore accident lawyer as soon as possible to find out more about the potential case that you may have.

You can talk to one of our lawyers at Githuku Law and find out more about the possibilities with your case and whether you are entitled to anything (and what you might be entitled to).

How Long Does it Take to Get Reimbursed for Lost Wages?

It can take quite a while to get your money from lost wages through workers’ compensation. The unfortunate thing is that the more complex the case the longer it can take to get your money.

Even more, it can take longer if there is a lot of medical documentation or in some additional cases. You may spend several months working to get your workers’ compensation benefits, which is why it’s important to have an attorney on your side.
