Delaware Car Accidents 
Delaware car accidents can have very negative consequences for victims. While no one ever expects to be involved in a crash, the reality is that they take place each day on our local streets and highways. Last year, nearly 8,000 motorists were hurt in car accidents that occurred across Delaware. Many of these victims were affected by careless and reckless drivers. The cause of many car accidents stems from some negligent behavior that could have been prevented.
Under Delaware law, a crash victim may have certain legal rights following the accident. These rights include the ability to recover compensation for their injuries and legal damages. Medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering are among the types of recoverable damages. The value of your personal injury claim depends upon many factors.
