Police say the young man’s car and the other car were both heading west in the left lane of Cass Avenue. When a driver noticed the young man’s car coming up quickly behind them, the driver moved to the right lane. At about the same time, the man’s car moved to the right lane as well and then the two cars collided.
The St. Louis Police Department’s accident reconstruction units are investigating. At The Cagle Law Firm, we know that investigating soon after a crash is critical to determining cause. Cause can be many factors from impairment to inattentiveness and weather. From just reading the newspaper article, it is impossible to determine the cause or fault, thus a thorough investigation must occur. At our firm, we work with reconstruction experts that investigate to determine all possible causes in addition to the police department’s investigation.
If you have been injured in an auto accident, you may be questioning whether or not you need an attorney. No one likes to get an attorney unless they have inherited a lot of money or won the lottery. But, an attorney and the right legal representation can make a big difference in your life. Our clients only want what is fair. After a traumatic auto accident, you and your family are concentrating on moving forward with your lives and dealing with injuries, medical care and possible loss of loved ones. You should never have to do that alone or without a professional to help oversee that your interests are protected. Negotiating with insurance companies is never on your top ten list of fun things to do and certainly not if you have suffered an injury or a loss. Insurance companies negotiate for a living—shouldn’t you have a professional to negotiate for you?
