Connecticut Car Accidents
A car accident can change your life in an instant, causing not only serious injuries but also emotional distress, lost income, and unexpected financial strain. Unfortunately, crashes are an all-too-common occurrence on Connecticut’s roadways, from busy highways like I-84 and I-95 to local roads in towns like East Hartford, New Haven, and beyond.
Injuries from motor vehicle accidents range from minor cuts and bruises to life-altering conditions such as spinal cord damage, broken bones, or traumatic brain injuries. These incidents can leave victims facing lengthy recoveries, time away from work, and ongoing medical needs.
Connecticut law allows those injured in car accidents to seek compensation if another party’s negligence contributed to the crash. Through a personal injury claim, you may be able to recover damages for:
- Emergency medical treatment and long-term care
- Lost wages and diminished earning potential
- Pain, suffering, and emotional trauma
- Property damage and other out-of-pocket costs
Because Connecticut follows a modified comparative negligence system, you can still pursue compensation as long as you’re not more than 50% at fault for the accident.
