Car Accident Lawyer
Car accidents can lead to serious injuries, extensive property damage, and other life-changing consequences for all parties involved.
If you or a loved one were seriously injured in a car crash caused by a negligent or reckless driver, you may have a case.
Here's how car accident lawyer William R. Kendall in Reno, NV, can help you and your family recover from a serious car crash...
What to Do after an Auto Accident
The moments after an auto accident can be a blur, but if you know what to do immediately after a car crash, you can help your case. To protect yourself and your best interests following a car accident, you should:
Gather Evidence
Before you move the vehicles (assuming it is safe to do so), take photos of the damage to the vehicles and of the car accident scene. You will want to make note of the time of day, the location of the accident, the weather and road conditions, and the direction each vehicle was going prior to the accident.
Move Out of Traffic
Get out of traffic if you are able to do so. This will allow emergency vehicles a clear path to you and will also help prevent more damage from being done by oncoming traffic.
Document Your Injuries
Make note of your injuries, taking pictures if possible. Check on your passengers and the other driver if you are able. If there are any serious injuries, call 9-1-1 to get medical attention.
Get the Details
Get the contact information for all witnesses, including their names and phone numbers. In the coming days, your car accident attorney will need to take a statement from them and it is helpful to have their information close at hand. Also, get the name and the insurance information for the other driver. This helps to expedite making a claim for damages. Don't expect a police report to paint a complete picture of the incident; all supplemental evidence you have will be important in your case.
Be Mindful of Your Words
It is also important that you do not admit fault. The officer that arrives on scene will make a written report and you do not want any record of having taken responsibility for the accident. Most importantly, you need to contact a qualified car accident lawyer to help you get the compensation you deserve.
Call a Car Accident Lawyer
If your car accident occurred in Reno or the surrounding communities, contact Mr. Kendall as soon as possible. If you are seriously injured or hospitalized, Mr. Kendall can come to your home or hospital to talk to you about your auto accident. To protect your best interests, ensure that you contact a car accident lawyer before you make any agreements with an insurance company.

Bill Kendall is an amazing lawyer. Through my whole case he gave me the peace of mind knowing that someone was always there looking out for my best interests. Whenever I called, it was Bill that answered the phone, not an exchange, a clerk, or a receptionist. Not having to talk to clerks or receptionists, leave messages, then wait, is one of the things that made working with Bill so awesome. If I could leave 6 stars I would.

Common Types of Car Accidents
Single-Vehicle Accidents
In a single-car crash, typically the driver is considered at fault. It is possible that negligence on behalf of the municipality in which the car accident occurred was a contributing factor due to inadequate signage or poor road conditions. Mechanical failure may also be found to be the cause of the accident. In such cases, a thorough investigation by a car accident lawyer can help prove that the driver was not at fault for the incident.
Multiple Vehicle Accidents
When two or more vehicles are involved in a car crash determining fault can become complicated. Common causes include illegal left turns, drivers ignoring stop signs or red lights, and failure to brake in time to avoid an accident. Multiple vehicle accidents can include side-impact collisions, t-bone accidents, and rear-end crashes, resulting in significant injuries for drivers and any passengers involved in the collision. If you or a loved one has suffered an injury in a multiple vehicle accident in Reno, Bill Kendall can help secure the compensation you deserve.
Commercial Vehicle Accidents
Due to the size of commercial vehicles such as tractor-trailers, delivery vehicles, and buses, collisions with passenger cars can lead to significant injuries. Add to this the layers of complexity that arise when dealing with the relationship between a driver of a commercial vehicle and whether or not they are an independent contractor or an employee of a larger company, and the need to retain a car accident lawyer quickly becomes clear. Bill Kendall can help if you or a loved one has been injured in a commercial vehicle accident in Reno.
