What We Do for You After a Car Accident
Dealing with the aftermath of a crash can feel overwhelming. From insurance companies to legal paperwork, it’s easy to get lost in the process. Our attorneys step in to:
✅ Explain Your Rights and Legal Options
Idaho law can be complex—especially when dealing with comparative negligence or determining liability. We'll help you understand how the law applies to your situation and advise you on the strongest course of action.
✅ Negotiate the Best Possible Settlement
Insurance companies often try to settle quickly—and for far less than you deserve. Our team has years of experience negotiating fair settlements that fully account for medical expenses, property damage, and the long-term impact of your injuries.
✅ Investigate and Build a Strong Case
We gather evidence, including police reports, witness statements, photos, and expert evaluations to prove the other driver’s negligence. You don’t have to do this alone—we know what it takes to build a strong claim.
✅ File a Lawsuit, If Necessary
If the insurance company refuses to offer a fair settlement, we’re fully prepared to take your case to trial. Our attorneys are seasoned litigators with a strong record of results in Idaho courts.
✅ Help You Recover Full Compensation
- You may be entitled to damages beyond your hospital bills. We pursue compensation for:
- Medical treatment and rehabilitation
- Lost wages or reduced earning capacity
- Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
- Long-term or permanent disability
- Passenger injuries and damage to other property
Motor Vehicle Personal Injury Laws in Idaho
Below is a summary of the key points regarding motor vehicle accident liability and civil action laws in Idaho. Every car accident incident and scenario is unique. You should consult an attorney for advice regarding your individual situation.
- Fault-Based Insurance System: Idaho operates under a traditional fault-based motor vehicle insurance system. If you're injured in an accident that was the other driver's fault, you can file an insurance claim or a lawsuit against the at-fault driver to recover compensation for your injuries and losses. This compensation can include both special (economic) damages, such as medical bills and lost income, and general (noneconomic) damages, like pain and suffering, and emotional distress.
- Statute of Limitations: For most personal injury claims in Idaho, you have two years from the date you were injured to file a lawsuit in court. There are exceptions and special time limits that apply in certain circumstances, such as when the injured party is a minor or when the responsible party leaves the state.
- Claims Against the Government: Special time limits apply to personal injury claims against Idaho, its political subdivisions, and their employees. Before you can sue Idaho or its employees in court for your personal injury claim, you must file your notice of tort claim within 180 days after the date you were injured.
- Comparative Negligence Rule: Idaho has a "modified comparative negligence" rule. You can recover some damages for your injuries, as long as you aren't found to be 50% or more to blame for the accident. If you're found to be 50% or more at fault, Idaho law bars you from collecting any damages.
- Damage Caps: Idaho law puts a $250,000 cap on noneconomic damages, such as pain and suffering and emotional distress except in certain cases involving willful or reckless misconduct. This cap is adjusted annually for inflation. As of July 1, 2022, the adjusted cap amount was $430,740.
Frequently Asked Questions About Car Accidents in Boise, ID
After a crash, your first priority is safety. Call 911, seek medical care, and report the collision. If possible, document the scene (take photos) and gather witness statements. Then consider contacting a car accident attorney to protect your rights and help you file a vehicle accident claim.
Even if your injuries seem minor at first, like whiplash, bruising, or muscle strain, it’s important to seek medical attention right away. Some injuries don’t show symptoms immediately but can worsen over time. Be sure to document everything — including photographs of visible injuries and detailed medical records — as this evidence is critical when pursuing compensation. Insurance companies often minimize soft tissue injuries, so having a lawyer can help ensure your condition is properly recognized and valued.
We’ve represented clients with a range of injuries resulting from automobile accidents. We can help with injuries involving traumatic brain injuries (TBI), spinal cord damage, broken bones, and long-term disabilities. No matter how severe, we will fight for the full value of your personal injury claim.
Idaho follows a modified comparative negligence rule. If you’re less than 50% at fault, you can still recover compensation—though your payout is reduced by your percentage of fault. We can help gather evidence that can reduce your liability.
In most cases, you have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, the sooner you act, the easier it is to gather crucial evidence and witness accounts.
