Using a Cell Phone While Driving Around New Haven? Read This.
March 15, 2017As New Haven auto accident attorneys, we see this everyday: an accident caused by a driver who was fidgeting with cell phone while driving their car. These injuries can be quite serious leaving victims with exorbitant medical bills and loss of income.

We obtain cell phone data from driver’s service provider, medical records, police reports, and look into whether there are any other parties that might be liable for the accident. We are prepared when dealing with the insurance company.
