Injured in a Chain Reaction Accident? Talk to an Experienced Atlanta Multivehicle Accident Lawyer for Free

Chain reaction accidents and other multivehicle accidents can present unique challenges when it comes to recovering financial compensation. Recovering monetary compensation requires proof of fault, and this means that you need to determine which driver (or driver) caused the crash. You also need to determine if other factors (such as a brake failure or road hazard) played a role in the collision. To overcome these challenges and recover the financial compensation you deserve, you will need an experienced Atlanta multivehicle accident lawyer with offices located in Atlanta, Alpharetta, and Cumming, on your side.

When Can You Seek Compensation for a Multivehicle Accident in Georgia?

As with all types of car accidents, seeking financial compensation after a multivehicle accident in Georgia requires proof that someone else was at fault in the crash. While this can include any and all forms of driver negligence (as well as non-driver-related factors), some of the most common grounds for seeking compensation after a multivehicle accident include:

  • Driver Error – From merging without looking to slamming on the brakes, all types of driving errors can lead to serious multivehicle accidents.
  • Driving Too Fast – Exceeding the speed limit is a common factor in multivehicle accidents. So is driving too fast for road or weather conditions.
  • Tailgating – When drivers tailgate, they often cannot stop in time to avoid a rear-end collision. When multiple drivers are tailgating, this can lead to a chain reaction accident.
  • Texting or Talking on the Phone – When drivers are texting or talking on the phone, they aren’t paying full attention to the task at hand. This increases their risk of playing a role in a multivehicle accident.

In addition to seeking compensation for these and other forms of driver negligence, multivehicle accident victims will often be able to pursue other claims as well. Brake failures, negligent vehicle repairs and negligent road maintenance are just a few examples of numerous additional factors that can play a role in chain reaction and other multivehicle accidents.

Who is Liable for a Chain Reaction Accident?

Determining who is liable for a chain reaction accident requires a prompt and thorough investigation. As a result, it is important to hire an Atlanta multivehicle accident lawyer as soon as possible. When investigating your chain reaction accident, your lawyer will examine evidence including:

  • Damage to the road, signs, posts and surrounding vegetation
  • The location and extent of the damage to each vehicle involved in the crash
  • Traffic, surveillance and phone camera footage
  • The other drivers’ phone and employment records
  • The police report from the accident

Your lawyer may also rely on an accident reconstructionist to piece together the events leading up to the collision. Modern technology allows this to be done with extraordinary accuracy, and computer modeling can often be used to pinpoint the specific factors that triggered a multivehicle crash.
