accident involving multiple cars

Directly after a car accident, it can seem like there is an endless amount of questions. Even putting the majority of initial concerns regarding injuries aside, common immediate concerns typically include inquires of:

  • Who started the chain of events?
  • Who hit who? Who was at fault?
  • Whose insurance is going to cover this?

As these questions and concerns become more difficult, liability becomes harder to determine, and insurance coverage and procedures to the claims become more complex and demanding. Rectifying the injuries and damage from a pile-up often prove to be a logistical nightmare.

And what is worse is that because insurance companies generally want to pay as less and avoid bearing all the costs, the process of concluding who was at fault and how the costs will be divided becomes extremely confusing to the injured parties.
