Head-on collisions cause roughly 10% or more of traffic fatalities and an untold number of injuries every year, making them a significant risk for everybody on the road.

If you or your loved one suffered serious injuries in a head-on collision here in New Jersey, you have every right to expect fair compensation for your losses. At Fedele & Honschke Attorneys at Law, LLC, our head-on collision lawyers have been advocating for victims of motor vehicle crashes from our offices in Toms River, Brick and Forked River since 1986. Our focused approach has allowed us to collect more than $100 million for our clients.

Why Are Head-On Collisions So Dangerous And Deadly?

Several factors significantly increase the likelihood of severe injuries and fatalities in head-on crashes, including the combined speed and force of impact from two cars colliding in opposite directions. The kinetic forces involved in the crash and the rapid deceleration of the vehicles increase the possibility of the vehicle’s front-end crumpling right where drivers and passengers sit.

Common injuries associated with head-on collisions include:

  • Head injuries, including traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) and skull fractures
  • Spinal cord injuries, including herniated discs, broken vertebrae and paralysis
  • Chest injuries, including rib fractures, bruised hearts and internal bleeding
  • Abdominal injuries, including damage to the liver, spleen or kidneys
  • Orthopedic injuries, including broken limbs or a broken pelvis

The reality is that negligent drivers are almost always behind head-on collisions, but insurance companies are reluctant to accept responsibility. Our head-on collision lawyers can use your medical records, statements from witnesses, photographic evidence and accident reconstruction experts to establish fault, calculate your losses and get you the compensation you deserve.
