The Real Aftermath of an I-4 Auto Accident

On a highway as speedy and treacherous, injuries are the most immediate and serious effects to contend with after an auto accident on I-4. Whether your injuries were minor or major, the most important thing you can do is to get medical attention as quickly as possible following the accident. Of course, depending on the severity of your injuries, this may not be a choice; you may have been ushered to the hospital in an ambulance. However, if you did walk away seemingly unscathed and are wondering whether you should even see a doctor, the answer is an absolute yes for a variety of reasons:

Auto Repairs

Auto accidents on I-4 lead to serious auto repairs on a good day (and, more often, totaled vehicles). This means that you’ll have to deal with a series of frustrating and costly steps, including towing the car, seeing a mechanic, getting a rental car, and having repairs done or purchasing a replacement car. These steps can be both time-consuming and expensive, and working with an attorney who knows the area can help in a variety of ways:

Long-term Care

Depending on the extent of your injuries, you may need care that extends beyond one or two doctor’s visits after your accident. This could mean a chiropractor, physical therapy, massage therapy, and even counseling in order to deal with the emotional injuries caused by the accident. In any case, a great benefit of working with a local attorney (as opposed to a corporation with multiple locations) is that they’ll have a network of medical professionals at your disposal, referring you to the tried-and-true best people in the business. This won’t just connect you with top-tier specialists; it’ll save you hours’ worth of time and energy doing research.

Financial Ramifications

The more serious your accident, the more likely it is to result in a financial burden. In addition to medical bills and car repairs, you may need to deal with childcare, temporary transportation, reduced hours or time off from work, and even small expenses that add up over time, including home delivery costs, cleaning services, and other essentials that you won’t be able to do yourself while recovering. A good attorney will connect you with the services you need, and they’ll help you thoroughly document all of the expenses you incur as a result of your car accident. This documentation will be an instrumental part of getting you the justice you deserve.

Taking Your Case as Far as It Needs to Go

As you browse through attorneys, ask yourself the following: who has a successful track record of successful outcomes for their clients? When we say successful, we don’t mean settling out of court because it’s easier; we mean taking the case all the way to court if that’s what it takes to get the best outcome–and winning.


Large corporate firms will connect you with an associate attorney who has to worry about success rates and partner tracks. A local law firm will treat you as part of the family, connecting you with the firm’s owner–who has nothing to prove to a board of directors or conference room of firm partners–and who is willing to do right by you, taking your case as far as you’re comfortable with in order to win.
