A serious injury raises hard questions, and getting clear answers early protects your claim.
A Leading Cause of Preventable Crashes
Distracted driving — texting, phone use, eating, or fiddling with controls — takes a driver's eyes and attention off the road. West Virginia restricts handheld phone use and texting while driving, and a violation can support a negligence claim.
Proving Distraction
Phone records, witness accounts, dashcam or surveillance video, and the driver's own statements can establish that distraction caused the crash. An attorney can subpoena records that an unrepresented victim could never obtain.
Strengthening Your Claim
Evidence of distraction not only helps prove fault but can support a claim for punitive damages where the conduct was especially reckless. Preserving that evidence early is key.
