Following a car accident, staying calm and taking the right steps can make a significant difference:
Remember: Don’t admit fault, discuss the accident with anyone except law enforcement or your attorney, or accept a settlement offer without legal advice.
Hawaii’s hybrid no-fault/tort system is a key point to understand. PIP insurance covers some medical expenses initially, but for more significant injuries, the tort system based on fault determination comes into play.
Hawaii follows a modified comparative negligence system. The percentage of fault assigned to you directly impacts the amount of compensation you receive.
In Hawaii, you generally have two years from the accident date to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, it’s crucial to consult with an attorney as soon as possible to ensure you meet all deadlines.
At Legal Giant, we understand the physical, emotional, and financial toll a car accident can take. We've helped countless clients on the Hawaiian Islands achieve positive outcomes. Here are a glimpse into some of our success stories:
Maui Motorcyclist: Our client, a motorcyclist seriously injured by a distracted driver, received a substantial settlement to cover medical expenses and lost wages.
The Big Island Collision: We represented a family whose car was hit by a speeding vehicle, resulting in multiple injuries. We secured a fair compensation package for their medical needs and future care through skilled negotiation.
These are just a few examples. Every case is unique, and we are dedicated to fighting for the rights of all our clients.
