Distracted Driving Accidents

Honolulu Distracted Driving Accidents Lawyer

Honolulu Distracted Driving Accidents Attorney

Distracted driving caused nearly 6,000 deaths and more than 500,000 injuries on America's highways in 2008, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Texting while driving takes the driver's attention away from the road, as does cell phone use, changing radio stations or applying makeup.

Hawaii does not yet have a statewide ban on calling or texting while driving, but various counties do. It is a traffic violation to use a handheld cell phone while driving in Honolulu or on Big Island.

If you or a loved one has been injured in a distracted driving accident, contact a skilled personal injury lawyer at Trecker & Fritz in Honolulu. Our attorneys serve clients throughout Hawaii, including Oahu, Kauai, Maui and the Big Island.

Pursuing Compensation After a Distracted Driving Accident

If your injuries have resulted from the actions of a negligent driver, you may be entitled to compensation or money damages for your losses. A car accident injury such as a broken bone or a spinal injury can keep you out of work for months. We believe that you deserve compensation for medical expenses and pain and suffering, which would not have happened if you hadn't been injured by careless driving. If you have lost a loved one in a fatal accident, you have lost their companionship, emotional support and economic support, and deserve compensation for your losses.

Experienced Distracted Driving Attorneys · Call us at 866.457.2861

We have more than 30 years of experience in truck accident injuries, and know how to investigate your distracted driving accident. If you or a witness saw the driver talking or texting while driving, we can subpoena the carrier's records to prove your claim, or ask the driver about it during the deposition.

We have found that juries frown on careless driving, especially accidents caused by careless texting. Our goal is to recover maximum compensation in your wrongful death, or injury claim, so you and your family have adequate income and resources for the future.

"Both my wife and I have Doctorates. I work with the Department of Defense. When my wife was improperly treated by a doctor and suffered devastating injuries, we needed someone with experience and skill to help us pursue our claim. I went to my son who was a lawyer who represents doctors in malpractice cases. He found Trecker & Fritz. They were creative, intelligent and highly professional in obtaining a very good result for us."

"My original lawyer wanted me to settle for the first offer from the insurance company. It was really a low offer since I had surgery and was unable to go back to my old job. Fortunately, Trecker & Fritz was willing to take over my case. I was really happy with the result and their handling of my case."
