Schenectady Dangerous Roads Attorney
Not all car accidents and other motor vehicle crashes are caused by driving mistakes. Sometimes a government agency's negligence in performing road construction or maintenance creates dangerous conditions that lead to severe injuries and fatalities.
If you are suffering or grieving after a New York car accident, you may feel overwhelmed and uncertain about how to pursue financial compensation you badly need. We do not expect you to know exactly why your accident occurred, what insurance coverage may apply, nor who is at fault. Instead, we urge you to contact an Albany Highway Accident Lawyer at our firm and leave the investigation and other crucial work to us.
Responding to You and Your Need to Hold the Government Accountable
Prompt action can be especially important if you suspect that road defects, inadequate signs or other dangerous road conditions factored into your crash. With years of service as a municipal attorney, Kevin Colwell is adept at meeting tight deadlines and key requirements for claims against government entities.
Did Negligent Road Repair or Construction Cause Your Crash?
Our legal team will address all key considerations in your car, motorcycle or other vehicle accident involving conditions such as:
- Serious roadway pavement defects including unrepaired and unmarked potholes
- Fundamentally dangerous conditions such as a lack of guardrails on a sharp curve or a "blind intersection" obscured by overgrown vegetation
- Hazardous or poorly marked construction zones
