Proving Liability and Demonstrating the Full Extent of Your Injuries

We know what to look for in evaluating liability for all types of car wrecks and other traffic accidents — and how to show the full extent of all types of injuries. We can help you after a motorcycle or trucking accident, as well as with respect to crashes involving:

  • Head-on collisions
  • Rear-end collisions
  • Sideswipes or near-misses that force your vehicle off the road
  • Car accidents requiring uninsured and underinsured motorist claims
  • Wrecks caused by drunk or impaired drivers

Resourceful Attorneys Who Go the Distance for Our Clients

We are a firm of determined lawyers who have worked hard over many years to obtain many favorable insurance settlements, arbitration awards, and trial verdicts for car accident victims. Unlike less established firms, we have the resources to be able to advance investigation costs when necessary, and we will invest the time required to handle your case properly.

We are experienced at handling situations such as:

  • Insurance companies offering far less than your case justifies
  • Car accidents involving injured children, which may have lifelong implications and costs
  • Recovery of money for your repaired vehicle’s diminished value after a wreck

We pursue only legitimate claims. You can depend on the attorneys of Schauermann, Thayer, Jacobs & Staples, PS, to offer you our best assessment of your likelihood of recovery — we won’t rush your case or encourage you to accept an inadequate insurance settlement.

Following vehicle accidents, it usually takes some time to determine the full impact of injuries. Your decision to contact our firm early on can help ensure your case is not prematurely settled, and that you end up being fairly compensated for the full extent of your loss.
