Introduction<\/h2>\n

Each year there are millions of auto accidents throughout the United States and these accidents on average have caused more than 33,700 deaths and $871 billion<\/a> dollars in damages and fees. Sadly, the number of accidents seem to be on the rise as the National Highway and Transportation Administration (NHTSA) is reporting that there are approximately 15,913 accidents occurring every day across the United States.<\/p>\n

To put this in perspective, in 2010 there were 5,338,000 reported accidents and in 2015 that number increased to 6,296,000. This means that in less than 5 years we have seen an increase of close to one million more accidents per year across the United States and these numbers will continue to grow.<\/p>\n

Auto accidents are no longer a \u201cwhat if\u201d scenario, rather they are a \u201cwhen\u201d and this means that you need to be prepared to act appropriately and efficiently following your accident.<\/p>\n
