Injured in a Car Accident? We Ensure to Present a Persuasive Case on Your Behalf
Unfortunately, car accidents are highly prevalent and equally deadly. High-speed car collisions are the worst leading to life-threatening injuries and even death. Car collisions occur when a motor vehicle either collides with another vehicle, a stationary object, a pedestrian, or an animal. Though modern cars have been created to protect us from sudden jolts, parts of your body can still get injured when they come in contact with objects such as seat belts, airbags, dashboard, windshield, and other components of the vehicle.
In such a situation, it’s better to get in touch with legal professionals. Baton Rouge car accident attorneys at the Law Offices of L. Clayton Burgess can help you recover compensation for all your injuries and damage.

Different Causes Of Car Accidents
- Speeding: Failure to adhere to the posted speed limit is one of the leading causes of car accidents in the United States.
- Driving Under The Influence Of Alcohol Or Drugs: Alcohol and drugs minimize our reflexes and that can lead to deadly collisions and road crashes.
- Distracted Driving: Distractions could either be inside or outside the vehicle (texting, calling, eating, grooming, reading or adjusting the music system while driving).
- Defective Auto Parts: When there’s a faulty part in the vehicle, it can cause the car to operate in an unsafe manner, thereby causing accidents.
- Adverse Weather Conditions: Poor weather conditions can leave the roadway slippery, wet, or icy. On days of such hostile weather conditions, drivers need to pay extra attention and slow down. High winds, fog, dust storms, and torrential downpours are some of the common causes of road accidents.
