Car Accidents in Delaware 
Injury accidents in Delaware take place very suddenly and unexpectedly. Each day, most people get into a vehicle in order to travel to and from their destinations. We never expect that the trip will result in an injury crash. However, these accidents happen multiple times per day on Delaware’s roadways. Most accidents happen because at least one person involved in the collision was acting in a negligent manner. This means that the driver was violating some traffic law at the time of the crash or they were otherwise driving carelessly. Negligent drivers have little regard for those around them and, through their actions, are placing the health and safety of everyone at risk.
If you or a family member have been affected by someone else’s negligent driving, you may have a claim for personal injury. Delaware law provides assistance to injured victims who have been hurt in a crash that was not their fault. These laws are complex and contain many pitfalls for individuals who are not familiar with the legal system. Having an experienced Delaware car accident attorney by your side can mean the difference between obtaining a full recovery and settling for something less than what you are owed.
