Passenger Van Accident Claims in Clifton, NJ

When you have been injured in a collision of any kind involving a passenger van crash, you’re entitled to seek compensation from any party that’s responsible for causing the accident. Often, passenger vans transport groups of up to 15 people in the service of church activities, resort activities, tours, airport transportation, daycare center trips, senior citizen center activities, college activities, and activities sponsored by other organizations.

Both the passengers in these vehicles and any victim injured in a crash with these vans are eligible to pursue injury claims against negligent parties. These cases can become complicated, so it’s in your best interests to put your claim in the hands of experienced passenger van accident lawyers in New Jersey.

Causes of Passenger Van Accident Injuries

Both driver error and factors associated with the design of passenger vans contribute to serious accidents involving these vehicles.

Examples of driver errors that lead to passenger van crashes include:

  • Distracted driving, which encompasses activities like texting and driving and eating while driving
  • Drunk driving, driving under the influence of drugs (including legal medications), drowsy driving, and other forms of impaired driving
  • Careless or reckless conduct behind the wheel
  • Speeding
  • Tailgating
  • Violating traffic laws or failing to obey signs and signals
  • Failing to adjust speed, following distance, and brake time in accordance with weather and driving conditions

The design of passenger vans presents its own challenges. These large vehicles have a high center of gravity, and the rear of the van extends out beyond its rear wheels by a considerable amount. This large vehicle size not only makes these vans more difficult to maneuver safely but also poses a risk of rollover accidents. Overloading the vehicle, whether with passengers or with cargo, contributes to this danger, as do common driver errors like speeding.

How Corradino & Papa, LLC Can Help

Determining the cause of the passenger van accident that injured you is the first step toward recovering compensation for your injuries through an insurance claim. Our passenger van accident lawyers in New Jersey investigate the crash to identify any parties that could be liable for your losses and gather evidence that allows us to begin building a case that establishes each defendant’s negligence.

To make your case a success, we present evidence that establishes all elements of the defendant’s negligence. For example, if you’re suing the driver of the passenger van, whether as an injured passenger, pedestrian, or occupant of another vehicle, you would need to establish that this driver owed you a duty of care to operate the vehicle in accordance with traffic safety laws and with reasonable caution. You would need to establish that the driver’s actions behind the wheel breached this duty of care. Next, you would have to establish this breach of duty as the cause of your accident. Finally, you would need to establish your damages. To get the compensation you deserve, you need to ensure that your claim encompasses the full scope of your damages.

Our passenger auto accident attorneys in Clifton, NJ, handle all of these demands and more, including claims paperwork, deadlines, and representation for legal proceedings. We fight to secure the payouts our clients deserve, whether through settlement negotiations or trial awards.
