HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS
It is the responsibility of the Department of Transportation in each state to ensure that all roadways are as safe and free of hazards as possible. Unfortunately, for a variety of reasons, roads may fall into disrepair and pose a danger to drivers and pedestrians.
Dangerous road conditions could include:
- Uneven pavement, or roadways that have bumps, potholes, drop-offs, or changes in texture
- Insufficient lighting
- Detritus from road construction
- Poorly designed roads
- Improper or absent traffic signs and signals
ACT QUICKLY TO PROTECT YOUR RIGHTS
You have only six months from the date of an accident on a public thoroughfare to file notice of a claim against a municipal, county or state government. For accidents caused by dangerous roads on federal land, the notice requirement is two years.
Although it may seem as though you have plenty of time, you should act quickly to obtain legal representation. Evidence that is vital to your case can disappear quickly and the sooner the legal effort starts, the easier it will be to obtain the compensation you deserve.
WHAT CONSTITUTES A DANGEROUS ROAD?
We obtained a seven-figure settlement on behalf of a 14-year-old boy who was rendered paraplegic as the result of defective road design.
When representing you, we will launch a comprehensive investigation to prove negligence on the part of the governmental entity and all other parties. Pursuant to this end, our law firm can retain the services of experts in road construction, civil engineering and highway safety. These professionals can provide key insights during the preparation of your case and compelling testimony at trial.
The personal injury lawyers at Frantz Law Group, understand the importance of your case. We will work tirelessly to obtain the best possible settlement or jury award for you.
