What is a Friendswood Personal Injury Claim?
A Friendswood personal injury claim could be warranted when an accident that left you with injuries and damages was caused by the negligence of another person. This negligence could occur in an automobile accident, or any other type of personal injury, including premises liability accidents (slip-and-falls), product liability claims for dangerous or unsafe products, wrongful death, medical malpractice, dog bites, nursing home neglect or abuse, or accidents resulting from an unsafe workplace. Auto accidents are the primary type of personal injury claim. Every driver on the road has a duty of care to other drivers.
This means that each driver must obey all traffic laws as well as the rules of the road. When a driver exceeds the speed limit, runs a red light or stop sign, tailgates another vehicle, or changes lanes without properly looking, that driver has breached his or her duty of care. If the driver that caused your accident breached his or her duty of care, the next question will be whether that breach of duty resulted in injury to you and whether those injuries caused specific damages. Damages can be financial, emotional, or physical. Filing a Friendswood personal injury claim for compensation for your personal injury damages can benefit from having an experienced Friendswood accident lawyer from Sullo & Sullo by your side.

- Auto accidents are a fact of life across the United States. While the resulting injuries from an auto accident could be minor, or severe, there are more than two million auto accidents each year. These accidents include auto-pedestrian accidents, truck accidents, car accidents, and motorcycle accidents. It can be extremely helpful to have a Friendswood auto accident lawyer helping you through this difficult time and getting you the compensation you need and deserve
- Car accidents may be single-car accidents or multi-car accidents. Many accidents are the result of a high-speed collision. There can be many other types of car accidents, including T-bone accidents, rear-end crashes, hit-and-run accidents, drunk driving accidents, texting-while-driving accidents, and even accidents with an uninsured motorist.
- Truck accident injury claims bring an array of complexities because the injuries to those in the smaller passenger vehicle can be catastrophic and because there can be more than one defendant. The truck driver might have been distracted, impaired, or overly fatigued, the trucking company may have failed to fully vet the driver or ensure he or she was properly trained, or the loading company may have sent the truck off with poorly loaded cargo. The maintenance company could also be responsible if a dangerous or defective truck part caused the accident.
- Motorcycle accidents are often caused by drivers who fail to properly look for smaller vehicles. Many motorcycle accidents are the result of a driver making a left-hand turn in front of the motorcyclist, changing lanes without looking for the motorcyclist, or opening a car door into traffic—and into the path of an oncoming motorcyclist. Motorcycle accident injury claims must deal with severe injuries and victims who may never be able to return to work. It can be extremely helpful to have a strong Friendswood personal injury attorney from Sullo & Sullo to file your motorcycle accident lawsuit.
