When a Car Accident Leads to Head Trauma

The day may have started out like any other. You woke up, got dressed and started your day as normal. However, things might have taken a terrible turn for the worse and now you face a new set of challenges. If you or a family member has sustained a head injury in a Culpeper car accident, you need to be aware of your rights and options.

It’s Just a Bump on the Head, Right?

First and foremost, if you were injured in any way in a crash, you need to get medical attention. Even a seemingly minor bump on the head could turn out to be a major injury. It is not worth the risk delaying treatment. If you were hurt, see a doctor. It really is that simple.

Your Rights & Options

If the auto accident was caused by the other driver’s negligence or recklessness, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries. A head injury can take a long time to heal and you could be facing weeks, even months in recovery. Medical bills will quickly pile up, as you try to recoup. Medical expenses and lost wages are among the many damages you may be able to recover following a serious car accident.

Working with Andrew and his team has been--without exception--one of the most pleasant, productive, and professional experiences of my adult life. I was seriously injured in an accident in July, 2018, in Virginia. I was driving a company vehicle that was registered in Maryland, for a company that was based in Wisconsin. And I live in New Jersey, where my personal vehicles are insured. The several jurisdictions involved presented a very unique case that demanded an experienced and nuanced strategy. I found Andrew Thomas (of Dulaney, Lauer, & Thomas) through some online research. And it is noteworthy that Andrew has worked the other side of the aisle--he used to work with insurance companies. Andrew took on my case with the assurance that he would work it with no less energy than he does each of his cases. At each turn, and with each question I had, Andrew and Paralegal Misty kept me informed, returned my calls, provided detailed explanations, and kept me feeling like I was in the loop and there was an eventual end to our journey. Nearly five years after the accident, we settled out of court for a significant sum in recognition of my personal injuries. The settlement was much more than I had expected. And without Andrew & Misty, I am sure the award would have been much less. If you are looking for professionalism, knowledge, dedication, answerability, responsiveness, integrity, and human-level communication from a personal injury attorney--look no further. You have found him. Thank you, Andrew and Misty. Gary Daley
