Experienced Philadelphia Car Accident Lawyers Seek Justice for Rear-End Collision Victims
We hold negligent drivers responsible for their actions
Rear-end accidents are a common occurrence on Philadelphia roadways. While many of these accidents are minor fender benders, others are far more serious, with victims suffering significant injuries. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, rear-end crashes are the most frequently occurring type of collision, accounting for approximately 29% of all crashes. If you or a loved one have been injured in a rear-end accident caused by another driver, it is important to understand your legal rights to compensation.

Proving fault in Philadelphia rear-end collision cases is one of the most important steps in recovering compensation. In most cases, fault in rear-end collisions is relatively clear, especially when the victim’s vehicle was stopped at the time of the accident. In other cases, fault may not be as clear. To demonstrate the other party’s negligence, it is important to recreate the events leading up to the accident and identify factors that led to the crash.
Our Legal Team is Dedicated to Helping Victims Injured in Rear-End Accidents
Our car accident attorneys successfully represent clients who have suffered injuries in rear-end accidents caused by a number of factors, including:
- Distracted driving: Inattentive or distracted drivers cause far too many accidents each year. Whether mobile phone usage, eating, drinking or any other factor distracts a driver, they may be responsible for their injurious actions.
- Impaired driving: Alcohol or drug use and driving are a dangerous combination. Far too often impaired drivers are unable to take action to avoid an accident or adhere to the rules of traffic safety.
- Mechanical failure: Issues with a vehicle’s brake system, steering linkage and other components may impact the driver’s ability to stop in time to avoid a rear-end collision. If a driver knowingly operates a potentially unsafe vehicle, they may be liable for any injuries and losses they cause.
- Weather conditions: Adverse weather conditions such as blizzards and torrential rainfall wreak havoc on Philadelphia area roadways. When conditions are dangerous, it is important that drivers reduce speed and take extra care. Failure to do so may lead to accidents that could otherwise be avoided.
Proving that one or more of these factors led to your injuries is key to recovering compensation.
