Recovering From Your Accident in Bridgeport

Every Connecticut driver is required to have auto insurance that meets the state’s minimum coverage requirements, and the cost of maintaining insurance coverage varies by location. Bridgeport drivers pay roughly 30% more for auto insurance than the statewide average, but many injured drivers have trouble securing fair settlements from insurance carriers.

If you were injured as a passenger, the at-fault driver’s insurance can cover your damages. This could be the driver of the vehicle in which you were riding or the driver of another vehicle, but in either case, you will need a Bridgeport passenger injury lawyer to help you file your claim. Your attorney can resolve any disputes you encounter and secure a fair settlement.

If you must file a personal injury case, your attorney can help you maximize your case award. An attorney can help you prove who caused your accident, establish their responsibility for your claimed damages, and guide you through your case proceedings to a positive result.
