Injury Accidents in Delaware
Being the victim of an injury crash in Delaware can be a devastating experience. Many crash victims were simply innocent motorists who were in the wrong place at the wrong time when a crash took place. Negligent driving accounts for most Delaware car accidents. Speeding, impairment, distraction, and careless driving are the main reason for the majority of collisions in our state. According to the Delaware Department of Transportation, approximately 8,000 people were hurt in Delaware car accidents last year. If you or a family member were affected by a crash, you could have certain legal rights.
Under Delaware law, injured victims may be entitled to file a claim for compensation. This includes the right to recover damages for lost wages, pain and suffering, medical bills, and potentially more.
