Skilled Attorneys Representing Victims Injured by Distracted Drivers
Imagine the power of a 90,000 lb. tractor-trailer hurtling down the road. Now imagine the driver of that 90,000 lb. rig listening to cell phone messages, getting directions off his or her GPS unit or texting while driving.
Distracted drivers cause countless accidents every year in Ohio, injuring drivers, passengers, bicyclists and pedestrians. The danger of texting while driving comes from dividing the attention of the driver's brain. According to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration or FMCSA, a driver who is texting for 6 seconds takes his or her eyes off the road for an average of 4.6 seconds. A lot can happen in 4.6 seconds, including serious personal injury and wrongful death.
If you have been injured by a driver who was texting while driving, you have the right to pursue money damages for your losses. The attorneys at Caravona & Czack, LLC. have more than 100 years of combined experience standing up for the wrongfully injured or killed, and achieving results.

Establishing Negligence in Texting While Driving Cases
When the attorneys at our firm accept a personal injury claim, we mount a thorough investigation to discover the facts of the case and to establish negligence. We have found that many drivers caught texting while driving are reluctant to own up to their responsibilities. Usually the fact that they WERE texting while driving does not emerge until we take the deposition of the offending driver. While under oath, they often admit that they were negligent and were texting when the crash happened.
We have helped many clients injured in car and truck accidents recover damages, even if the driver who hit them has no insurance or only minimal coverage. In that case, you can file a claim through your insurance policy IF you carry uninsured / underinsured motorist coverage.
Serious Cases with Serious Impact
If you have been injured by a driver who was texting while driving, we cannot make the injury or wrongful death go away, but we can actively pursue compensation for your losses.
