Personal Injury Attorneys for Victims in Benton

Established in 1837, the city of Benton, Arkansas, is the county seat of Saline County and home to approximately 36,000 people. Just like in other cities, many of the people living in Benton drive to work, school, the grocery store, you name it. Then there are the people driving in and out of the city from neighboring areas. All of this adds to the likelihood of a motor vehicle collision or accident occurring. In addition to auto collisions, there are other accidents that happen in Benton involving unsafe products and medications. If you or a loved one has been injured due to the negligence of someone else, you should contact one of the Benton personal injury attorneys of Nahon, Saharovich & Trotz today to discuss your case and see how we may be able to assist you during this difficult time.

Recovering Damages When Someone Else Caused You Harm

Streets like Kingshighway and Linwood Drive see their fair share of drivers who reside in the area.

Negligence is often the cause of most motor vehicle collisions, and the same is true for car accidents and trucking collisions that happen in Benton. For example, you could be driving on South East Street in front of Benton City Hall – located at 114 South East Street, Benton, Arkansas 72015 – and become involved in a head-on collision with a drunk driver who failed to maintain his or her lane. After such a collision, you could be rushed to a nearby hospital, such as Saline Memorial Hospital – located at 1 Medical Park Drive, Benton, Arkansas 72015.

In order to recover economic and non-economic damages from an at-fault driver after a collision in Arkansas, you will likely have to prove that the other driver owed you a duty of reasonable care but breached said duty, which caused you to sustain injuries. However, if the accident was caused by a product defect in your vehicle, such as the airbag or power steering, and not the negligence of another driver, you may be able to bring a product liability lawsuit against the manufacturer of your vehicle. A personal injury lawyer in the Benton area can inform you of how to go about bringing a lawsuit against a manufacturer and what needs to be done in order to validate your claim, such as hiring an expert to verify whether or not a product defect indeed caused the collision.

Some people take medication and end up with internal bleeding, failing organs, vomiting, headaches, and other symptoms due to taking medications that were not adequately researched by big pharmaceutical companies. Sometimes the fault lies with the pharmaceutical companies when they fail to warn patients of the potential risks. However, medical malpractice could take place if a doctor wrongfully prescribes a medication or prescribes it in an incorrect dosage. In more severe cases, victims of unsafe drugs can become comatose or even die. If this has happened to you or a loved one, you may be able to recover compensation for your injuries and losses.

work in town, or are traveling through the city. With cars and trucks moving through and around this area, auto accidents occur on almost a daily basis. Those injured in car accidents are often victims of other drivers’ negligence, which refers to when a driver breaches a duty owed to others by disregarding traffic laws and rules of the road or otherwise acting in an unreasonable manner considering the circumstances. Many drivers in the area exhibit negligence by speeding, following too closely, and failing to maintain a safe lookout for other cars, motorcycles, bicycles, and pedestrians. Distracted driving and driving while impaired are also examples of negligence.

Injuries that may result from auto accidents are far and wide-ranging, including whiplash, broken bones, paralysis, brain damage, and permanent scarring. Consequently, victims who suffer serious injuries will likely incur large medical bills, lost wages (if unable to work), and emotional pain and suffering. Particularly violent collisions can be fatal, in which case surviving loved ones may assert a wrongful death action on behalf of the deceased. Victims may seek appropriate compensatory damages for damages under Arkansas law against the negligent driver and possibly the owner of that vehicle. In Arkansas, car and truck wreck cases require a proper investigation into all potential theories of liability and sources of recovery, making it beneficial to retain an experienced personal injury lawyer in the Paragould area following an accident.

Sometimes, auto accident injuries are exacerbated due to a dangerous product defect. For instance, if your airbag failed to deploy, you may suffer a severe head injury or brain damage. Certain victims may not survive the crash. If this difficult situation applies to you or a loved one, a product liability claim may be asserted. These laws protect consumers injured by unsafe or dangerous products. Common theories of liability are when a product manufacturer fails to adequately warn of risks or if the product does not operate as it was intended through reasonable use. Other automobile defects could include tire blowouts and malfunctioning brakes.
