Car Accidents Truck Accidents Motorcycle Accidents Wrongful Death

When someone else acts carelessly, a person's life may be completely changed by a serious injury.

Knowing how to use that right, and doing it before important deadlines pass, can make all the difference in what a family will be able to recover.

At Whitlock Law, our attorney helps people in Odenton take steps to hold people or companies accountable for causing serious injuries. With years of experience in personal injury cases, a thorough knowledge of the laws in Maryland that affect these matters, and strong skills in negotiation and courtroom litigation, we can help ensure that our clients' rights will be protected at all times.

Options After an Accident

In many cases, injuries can be addressed through insurance claims. A person who caused an accident or injury may be held responsible for the harm a victim has suffered. Their insurance policy may provide coverage, including auto insurance or homeowner insurance.

In some cases, a person's own insurance policy may provide a source of compensation. Some insurance policies include Personal Injury Protection (PIP), which can be used to pay for medical bills and lost wages. Uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage may also be available in a situation where a person who was responsible for an accident or injury does not have insurance or does not have enough coverage.

Insurance companies earn money by paying as little as possible when people file claims. Adjusters may dispute a person's injuries, blame them for an accident, or offer a quick settlement that will not cover the full costs of care or other damages. When insurers refuse to make fair offers, or when they attempt to deny coverage, our lawyer can file a personal injury lawsuit. We can also determine whether lawsuits may be filed against other parties who may have played a role in an accident or injury.

Important Rules That May Affect Personal Injury Claims

Maryland has some of the strictest laws in the country for how personal injury cases may be handled. For this reason, legal representation can be crucial. Our attorney can provide guidance on how to address issues such as:

Contributory Negligence: Maryland is one of the few states that still follows this rule. If an injured person is found to be even slightly at fault for an accident or injury, they may be barred from recovering anything. Insurers know this, and they will often try to shift blame, so it is important to gather evidence that shows that another party was responsible for an injury.
Filing Deadline: Under Md. Code, Courts and Judicial Proceedings § 5-101, most injury lawsuits must be filed within three years of the date on which an injury took place. We will make sure claims are filed within the proper time limits.
Damage Limits: Md. Code, Courts and Judicial Proceedings § 11-108 places a cap on noneconomic damages that may be awarded in a personal injury case. These damages may include pain and suffering or other damages that do not have a price tag. We can advocate for full compensation for all damages, including pain and suffering.

Pedestrian Accidents Catastrophic Injuries Premises Liability

Personal Injury Cases We Handle in Odenton

Our law firm represents people who have been injured in a wide range of accidents, including:

Car Accidents: Collisions may involve distracted or speeding drivers or other forms of negligence. We can gather police reports, photos, and witness statements to show who was at fault.
Truck Accidents: Commercial truck drivers must follow federal hours-of-service rules and other regulations meant to ensure safety. Driver logs, maintenance records, and trucking company policies can reveal violations, and steps can be taken to hold a truck driver, trucking company, or other parties responsible for accidents.
Motorcycle Accidents: Motorcycle riders frequently face bias, but most of the time, others are responsible for causing collisions. We will work to show that another driver's actions, such as failing to yield, caused a motorcycle crash.
Pedestrian Accidents: Drivers are required to yield to pedestrians in crosswalks and take other steps to protect the safety of pedestrians. When drivers ignore that duty, they may be held responsible for causing injuries to pedestrians.
Premises Liability: Property owners may be held liable if they fail to keep their premises reasonably safe for visitors. Wet floors, broken stairs, and poor lighting can all lead to serious falls or other types of injuries.
Dog Bites: A dog owner may be held liable for injuries caused when their animal bites or attacks someone. We can work to ensure that dog bite victims will be able to recover compensation.
Catastrophic Injuries: Brain injuries, spinal cord damage, amputations, and severe burns can affect a person in many ways, and they may require lifelong care. We work with medical providers and financial planners to calculate the future costs related to these injuries and obtain the compensation victims need.
Wrongful Death: Spouses, parents, or children may take steps to obtain compensation after losing a loved one because of negligence.

Our considerable experience and focus on personal injury law can give you a significant advantage, because we will use our knowledge and skills to protect your best interests. If insurers do not offer full compensation through settlement negotiations, Attorney Whitlock is a force to be reckoned with in the courtroom.
