Accident Cases

The Alaska Department of Motor Vehicles promulgates rules and regulations for those involved in an automobile accident, including: (a) assess the damage to your vehicle and the other vehicles involved, (b) exchange information with the other driver(s) including, the other driver's name, phone number, address, license plate number, driver's license number, and insurance company name, (c) submit a Certificate of Insurance within 15 days, (d) contact the local police department (or Alaska State Troopers, if appropriate) and (e) mail in an Alaska Motor Vehicle Crash Form to the Alaska DMV.  [].  To give yourself the best chance at achieving a positive result, retain attorneys from the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers in Alaska to work with you through this process.

This includes motorcycle accidents, too.  Indeed, although Alaska is among the states with the least amount of motorcycle accidents, this does not mean none ever happen and certainly doesn’t mean there aren’t serious injuries.  Here, too, it is vital to obtain the best attorneys available to help with your case.

How Attorneys Help You Succeed

A Vehicle Accident Injury Lawyer will know the laws, rules and regulations an untrained person will not.  They will know how to best complete the relevant forms to preserve your rights and will also know the other factors relevant to the post-accident procedures in Alaska.  These rules and regulations include the fact that, in Alaska, you only have two (2) years from the date of accident to file your lawsuit with the Court. They will also work your case to create a story to prevent losing monies from Alaska’s “comparative negligence” rules, where a Court may limit any award you receive based on any amount it deems you are responsible for.  They will know that there are different procedures for property damage claims.  They will know the ways to prosecute a wrongful death claim if someone you were dependent on was killed.

As you can see, there is a lot to know, which is why, in any personal injury incident, no matter how minor you believe it to be, you should obtain advice from, and eventually retain, someone who is a part of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers.  And this should be done before you speak with any representative of an insurance company.  In order to achieve the best result for your vehicle accident, whether it arise out of a car, truck, bus, motorcycle or other, consulting a Vehicle accident injury lawyer for your accident and promptly and filling out the proper forms will ensure compliance with the relevant laws and regulations and will also create a paper trail with relevant information, a practice that cis likely to improve your chances at prevailing on your claim.
