Head-On Crash Injury Attorneys in DuPage County

Lawyers in Bensenville and Addison for Head-On Car Accidents

At Kaiser Law, in Bensenville, IL, our lawyers understand that car accidents can take many forms. A single car could hit a guardrail or a telephone pole. One car could rear-end another as it is stopped at a red light. Two cars could collide while one is trying to turn left across traffic. A head-on collision, however, is, without question, one of the most dangerous types of accidents.

Head-on collisions are often devastating because the speed of both vehicles multiplies the violence and force of such crashes. These kinds of accidents frequently cause catastrophic injuries and, in many cases, death. If you or a loved one has been injured in a head-on car crash in Cook County or DuPage County, our dedicated personal injury attorneys are here to help you collect the compensation the law says you deserve.

Elmhurst Lawyers for Severe Injuries

Head-on collisions may occur when a driver crosses the centerline or a median and puts his or her vehicle in the path of oncoming traffic. Such crashes can also be the result of a driver going the wrong way on a one-way street. In some situations, alcohol or distracted driving may also be factors. Regardless of how they happen, head-on collisions can result in extremely serious injuries.

Today's passenger vehicles are generally equipped with a number of safety features that are designed to minimize injuries in a head-on collision, but airbags, crumple zones, and seatbelts can only do so much. Each year, thousands of drivers and passengers sustain life-altering injuries as the result of head-on crashes including:

• Whiplash, and other neck and spinal cord injuries
• Head injuries, concussions, and traumatic brain injuries
• Full and partial paralysis
• Multiple and compound fractures
• Severe cuts, lacerations, and internal bleeding

Head-on collisions are also among the most deadly of all car accidents. According to federal safety estimates, head-on crashes represent only about 2 percent of traffic accidents. However, about 10 percent of all traffic fatalities in the United States occur in head-on collisions.
