Vehicle Accident Attorney - Miami, Florida

Every year, six to ten million motor vehicle accidents occur in the United States. This means that every five seconds someone suffers an automobile accident that may result in serious personal injury. Unfortunately, often victims of vehicular accidents are forced into long-term rehabilitation and/or permanent disability due to the negligence or reckless behavior of someone else. Recognizing the physical, emotional and financial distress caused by such situations, Sean M. Cleary is dedicated to helping victims of motor vehicle accidents obtain justice. As a highly experienced Miami vehicle accidents lawyer, he has represented numerous victims in their personal injury cases brought against other motorists, car manufacturers and other liable parties.

Motor Vehicle Accidents and Personal Injury

While vehicle manufacturers constantly develop and implement new safety features, nonetheless accidents often result in serious injuries and death. For example, head-on car collisions frequently leave victims dead, paralyzed or with serious fractures, burns and brain trauma. Even relatively minor vehicle accidents can cause considerable distress as the involved persons often have to visit several doctors to evaluate their physical and emotional health. While sometimes a visit to a hospital seems unnecessary, it may in certain cases help detect problems that might not be apparent, such as closed-head brain injury. This type of trauma is often caused by hitting the head against the dashboard or steering wheel, whiplash or rollover.

Vehicular Accidents: Who is at Fault?

Motor vehicle accidents often result from reckless or negligent behavior of other motorists. However, these catastrophic events can also be caused or aggravated by faulty vehicle design and/or parts. Some of the more common manufacturing-related vehicle problems include faulty brakes and tires, defective seatbelts and malfunctioning air bags. When victims suffer injury or death due to defects in their vehicles, the manufacturers may be liable for failing to provide safe consumer products. Mr. Cleary has many years' experience negotiating and litigating motor vehicle accident cases whereby victims have sustained personal injury due to wrongful behavior of other drivers, faulty vehicles or both.
