Helping People Across Indiana Who Have Been Injured by Distracted Drivers
It is simple: A person cannot safely operate a vehicle while multitasking. Drivers must give their full concentration to the road. Unfortunately, too many people take the act of driving a car for granted. When people do not pay enough attention to the road, they can commit horrendous accidents that cause life-altering injuries. One of the most common distractions on the road today involves sending or receiving text messages while driving. This is incredibly reckless behavior. Studies have indicated that texting while driving causes greater impairment to a driver's reaction time than drunk driving.
In July 2011, Indiana instituted a ban on texting while driving. Further, Indiana has laws on the books preventing drivers under the age of 18 from using cell phones while driving.
If you or a loved one has been injured by a distracted driver, you have every right to demand full compensation for your medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering. It is important that you enlist a lawyer who knows how to help you reach the full value of your claim. We are the Indianapolis personal injury attorneys of Jacobs Law LLC. Our law firm has helped many people injured by another driver's negligence.
Devoted Legal Representation During a Difficult Time
We will make a complete investigation of your accident in order to prove the liability of the other driver. While we are going about establishing liability, we will also work with you and your doctors to establish the full extent of your injuries. Most of our client's cases do settle prior to trial.

We hope you enjoy your stay in Indianapolis for the 2012 Super Bowl. While you visit our city, there will be LOTS to do and see -- but -- please be careful! Accidents can happen at the most unexpected times and places. Car accidents caused by drunk drivers (or drivers who disobey Indiana's law against texting while driving!), trips or slip and fall accidents in hotels, bars, and restaurants--- are just a few of the unfortunate accidents that can occur at any time, and personal injury risks go up whenever you throw alcohol into the mix! Wherever there are big crowds, people can get injured. The attorneys at Jacobs Law LLC have represented many out-of-state visitors to our city, and have handled cases involving some of Indiana's biggest venues, including Conseco Fieldhouse (now Bankers Life Fieldhouse), the Indiana Convention Center, Verizon Wireless Music Center (now Klipsch Music Center), and the Pepsi Coliseum. If you receive injuries because of someone else's carelessness during your stay in our city, we'd like to help. We wish you a safe and fun-filled Super Bowl experience, and we will be here for you if the unexpected happens.
