Like all car accidents, rear-end collisions are jarring and disorienting. Because of the sudden jolt to the body, victims frequently sustain whiplash or back injuries that may not show symptoms until days after the crash.

Just as you should be proactive about your physical health after a rear-end accident, you should act promptly to protect your legal rights. This is why it is wise to contact (or have a loved one contact) our skilled attorneys as soon as possible. The more quickly you get in touch with us, the more likely we are to be able to:
