Cape Cod Passenger Accident Attorney

Helping passengers get the compensation they deserve

When you are a passenger in another person’s car or riding on their motorcycle, you are putting your trust and safety in their hands. However, no matter how safely they may drive, the risk of getting into an accident is still present. As a passenger, you too have the right to hire an attorney to seek compensation for your injuries.

At the Law Offices of Steven T. Snow, we represent people throughout Cape Cod and Southeastern Massachusetts who have suffered injuries as passengers in car, truck, motorcycle or boating accidents. Attorney Steven Snow has 20 years of experience representing clients in bodily or personal injury claims and wrongful death lawsuits, and has the expertise and ability to provide you with the best possible results in your case.

The experience you need. The results you want.

Injured passengers have several options when pursuing compensation in bodily or personal injury claims. Unless that passenger caused the accident, he or she can seek compensation from either at-fault driver or from his own policy. If any party’s negligence contributed to your injuries, you may be entitled to compensation for:

  • Current medical expenses
  • Future medical expenses
  • Lost wages
  • Loss of earnings capacity
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional trauma
  • Permanent partial disability
  • Physical disfigurement

If you are married, your spouse may possess a loss of consortium claim.

Uninsured and underinsured motorist claims

Although an injured passenger can pursue multiple sources of compensation, that does not necessarily mean that the case will proceed without complications. Many drivers are either uninsured or underinsured, and lack the coverage or financial ability to compensate you for your injuries. However, many passengers also have their own vehicles and may have uninsured/underinsured motorist benefits as part of their policies. In these cases, Attorney Steven Snow can help you file a claim against your own insurance company to recover for your damages.

Making insurance companies pay what they owe

Insurance companies are notorious for fighting tooth and nail to avoid paying accident victims. However, Attorney Steven Snow has extensive experience dealing with insurance companies. Before opening his own personal injury firm, Attorney Snow represented insurance companies in cases involving their insureds. He relies on the knowledge he derived from that experience to gain an advantage for his clients during settlement negotiations and in closing arguments at jury trial.
