Auto Accident Lawsuit

An auto accident lawsuit is filed when a settlement agreement cannot be reached. The filing consists of a summons and complaint, legal documents that summon the defendant (one being sued) to court to answer specific claims outlined in the complaint.

The complaint filed in the auto accident lawsuit outlines the damages sought to compensate you for your injuries, past and future. The specific amount money sought does not need to be stated in the complaint.

Once a lawsuit is filed, both sides can ask for additional documentation, conduct depositions ("interviews" of witnesses and others), hire expert witnesses and take other measures to gather evidence and build a case.

Throughout the auto accident lawsuit process, our lawyers continue to negotiate with the defendant's lawyers to try to reach a settlement. If a settlement is not reached by the trial date, our lawyers will proceed to trial. They have tried and won numerous trials and frequently lecture on trial tactics.
