What Is a Rear-End Collision?

Rear-end accidents are when a negligent driver reaches you from the back. In these types of accidents, it is common that the at-fault driver is the one who struck you from behind, leaving you the impact in the back of the car. Although the most common car accidents are the ones with the lower rates of fatalities, you can still suffer from different injuries like whiplash and fractures.

One scenario in which these types of collisions happen is in heavy traffic; however, they are not related to only these scenarios since a negligent driver can cause an accident even on an empty road. At Phoenix Accident and Injury Law Firm, our rear-end collision attorneys will assist you in seeking justice and help you file your claim to obtain the compensation you deserve.

Determining Fault in Rear-End Collisions

Most of the time, proving the liability of the driver who struck you from behind is easy. The rule for these cases is that the driver who spotted the car in front should apply the brakes in time. If rear-end accidents occur without further evidence, these rules will apply, and the driver who struck you from the back will be at fault. In some cases, this will not apply, but the further investigation will be more extended.

I was in an accident that resulted in getting whiplash and a concussion. I contacted Phoenix Accident and Injury Law Firm that day. Everyone was helpful (Rhea, Karissa, and Jeff) from the very beginning to the very end. They sent me to a physical therapy location that was pretty far away but the doctor and physical therapist were very kind so I did make the trek. They handled all aspects of my case in a timely manner and answered all my questions. They got the max amount possible, and from that, paid the medical bills and took their fair cut. I would not hesitate to recommend them to family or friends.

I would give ten stars if I could. This law firm is about as professional and friendly as it gets!! They stayed in constant contact with me and answered every question I had. I got a settlement that was higher than I expected and will definitely use this law firm again. I highly recommend hiring them to handle your legal issues!!

These guys were absolutely amazing. They were very clear with me about what I needed to do on my end and I saw fast results. I just recommended them to a friend a week ago and he also dealt with my mother's case. I wouldn't see anyone else.
