If you are injured in a car accident due to the fault of another person, there is a very good chance that you will be entitled to monetary damages.  The principle causes of car accidents, due to the fault of another, are speeding, drunk driving, distractions (such as talking, texting, eating, adjusting controls), cell phone use, unsafe driving under the weather & traffic conditions existing, violation of traffic signals such as red lights and stop signs, and driver fatigue.  If you have been injured by another due to one or more of these factors, you may want to consult with Attorney Mark O. Grater at 860-449-8059 to determine your rights and potential award.
