Bell, Jr. Bell, Jr. With 40+ years of experience, the attorneys at Stewart Bell, PLLC represent car crash victims across West Virginia. Navigating the legal system to secure the compensation you may need to recover shouldn’t add to that burden. In these challenging times, having a dedicated car accident lawyer in West Virginia on your side can make all the difference. At Stewart Bell, PLLC, we understand the complexities of car accident cases and are committed to fighting for the rights of our clients. Our team has extensive experience handling personal injury cases in West Virginia, and we work tirelessly to secure the compensation you may deserve. Whether you’re dealing with an uncooperative insurance company or need help proving fault, we provide the legal guidance and personal support you need to move forward with confidence. All you have to do is call us. These damages are often straightforward to calculate as they are based on actual expenses and financial losses. This includes the income you would have earned from the time of the accident until the time you can return to work. These damages address the broader impact of the accident on your life and well-being. Unlike economic and non-economic damages, which aim to compensate the victim, punitive damages are designed to punish the wrongdoer and deter similar conduct in the future. In West Virginia, punitive damages may be awarded if it is proven that the at-fault party acted with actual malice or with a conscious, reckless disregard for the safety of others. Under W. Va. Understanding these laws is important for anyone involved in a collision. The state operates under a fault-based system, meaning the party responsible for causing the accident is liable for the resulting damages. However, their compensation will be reduced by their percentage of fault. For example, if you are found 20% at fault, your compensation will be reduced by 20%. Under W. Va. Code § 55-2-12, you generally have 2 years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim. Recognizing the types of injuries commonly sustained in car wrecks can help you understand the potential impact on your recovery and your claim. Some injuries may not be apparent right away but can manifest later. Collect contact information from witnesses and other parties involved. An experienced attorney knows the tactics insurers use and will handle all negotiations on your behalf. They will represent you in all legal proceedings, presenting evidence, questioning witnesses, and making compelling arguments to the judge and jury. They will help you understand your rights and guide you on the best course of action. You can still recover damages even if you were partially at fault, as long as you were less than 50% responsible. Insurance companies often try to settle for less than what your claim is worth. Your lawyer can help you compile and present this evidence effectively. Instead, the lawyer receives a percentage of your settlement or court award. Reach out to a knowledgeable West Virginia car accident lawyer who can provide the guidance and support you need during this difficult time. At Stewart Bell, PLLC, we are dedicated to helping accident victims in Charleston, Huntington, Dunbar, and across the state understand their rights and pursue full and fair compensation. Bell, Jr. You should consult an attorney for advice regarding your individual situation. We invite you to contact us and welcome your calls, letters and electronic mail.
