🚗💥 WHO'S AT FAULT? CAR A OR CAR B?

Two vehicles. One intersection. One collision.

Take a close look at the accident scene. Which driver do YOU think is responsible?

🔵 CAR A
🔴 CAR B
🤔 BOTH DRIVERS

Drop your answer in the comments before reading further!

Here's what makes intersection accidents complicated: determining fault isn't always as simple as looking at where the vehicles collided.

Investigators may need to consider traffic signs, right-of-way rules, vehicle positioning, driver behavior, witness accounts, and available video evidence.

In some situations, both drivers may share responsibility.

At Tapalian Law, we understand how important a thorough investigation can be when determining liability after a Rhode Island or Massachusetts car accident.

🚨 MYTH OR FACT: No police report means no injury claim?

MYTH! A police report can be valuable evidence after a car accident, but not having one does not automatically prevent you from pursuing a personal injury claim.

Other evidence may help establish what happened, including:

🚗 Photographs of the accident scene and vehicle damage
📹 Dashcam or surveillance footage
👥 Witness statements
🏥 Medical records documenting your injuries
📱 Communications and other relevant documentation

While reporting an accident is important—and may be legally required depending on the circumstances—a missing police report doesn't necessarily mean you have no options.

At Tapalian Law, we help injured individuals throughout Rhode Island and Massachusetts understand their rights and evaluate the evidence supporting their claims.

An injury at work can affect far more than your ability to finish a shift.

Suddenly, you may be facing medical treatment, time away from work, reduced income, physical limitations, and uncertainty about when—or whether—you'll be able to return to the job you were doing before.

And then come the questions:

Who pays for my medical care? What happens to my lost wages? What benefits may be available? What if my injury keeps me from returning to the same work?

You don't have to figure everything out by yourself.

Workers' compensation and workplace injury matters can involve important rights, procedures, and deadlines. Depending on how an accident happened, there may also be circumstances involving parties other than your employer that should be evaluated.

If you've been injured on the job, understanding your rights is an important first step.

⚖️ Know your rights. Understand your options. Get experienced legal guidance.

Meet David Tapalian ⚖️

For Attorney David Tapalian, representing injured people isn't simply an area of practice—it has been the focus of a legal career spanning more than 20 years.

David's Rhode Island roots run deep. He earned his bachelor's degree from Brown University in Providence, concentrating in Public Policy and American Institutions, before earning his Juris Doctor from Roger Williams University School of Law. After graduating, passing the bar examinations, and becoming an attorney, David did something that says a great deal about the way he approaches his career: he opened his own law practice and has continued building it ever since. Tapalian Law

But David's professional background extends beyond the courtroom. According to his firm biography, he has also owned and managed his own business enterprises for approximately 20 years. That experience brings another perspective to his work—understanding responsibility, communication, problem-solving, and what it means when an unexpected injury disrupts someone's ability to work, earn a living, or take care of a family. Tapalian Law

Today, David concentrates his practice on representing people who have been injured in accidents, including motor vehicle crashes, motorcycle and bicycle accidents, slip and falls, pedestrian accidents, dog bites, workplace injuries, and other personal injury matters. His biography notes that he personally prepares and works on his clients' individual cases rather than treating them as simply another file. Tapalian Law

And his experience isn't limited to one state. David is admitted to practice in Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Florida, as well as the U.S. District Courts for Rhode Island and Massachusetts. That multi-state experience requires staying familiar with different laws, procedures, deadlines, and insurance issues that can affect an injury claim. Tapalian Law

Over the course of his career, David has helped injured clients and their families pursue compensation after serious accidents. He is a member of the Rhode Island Association for Justice and American Association for Justice, has been recognized as a Top 100 Trial Lawyer by The National Trial Lawyers, and has received multiple Avvo Clients' Choice Awards. Tapalian Law

But credentials only tell part of the story.

At Tapalian Law, the philosophy is personal representation and responsiveness. When someone is dealing with an injury, medical appointments, lost income, insurance calls, and uncertainty about what happens next, David understands that they need more than paperwork—they need someone willing to listen, explain the process, and advocate for their interests. Tapalian Law

More than two decades of experience. Local roots. Personal representation.

That's the attorney behind Tapalian Law.

“This is our best offer.”

It can sound final — especially when you're dealing with medical bills, missed work, vehicle expenses, and the stress that follows an accident.

But before accepting a settlement, it's important to understand exactly what the offer is intended to resolve and what you may be giving up by accepting it.

An injury claim may involve more than the medical bills sitting on your desk today. Depending on the case, considerations may include lost wages, ongoing treatment, future medical needs, pain and suffering, and the longer-term effect an injury has on someone's ability to work and live normally.

And once a claim is settled and the appropriate release is signed, reopening the matter may not be possible simply because additional expenses or problems arise later.

So rather than focusing only on whether an offer sounds substantial, ask a different question:

Does the offer appropriately account for the full impact of the injury and the specific facts of the claim?

You don't have to make that determination based solely on what an insurance adjuster tells you.

Before signing a settlement, get answers.

Two accidents can look almost identical and still involve very different legal issues.

So, what can make a personal injury case more complicated?

Multiple vehicles or potentially responsible parties can create questions about how fault should be allocated. Commercial or company vehicles may introduce additional parties and insurance coverage. Disputed fault can require a closer look at photographs, reports, witness accounts, video, and other evidence.

Other complications can arise when injuries develop over time, there are questions about prior medical conditions, insurance coverage is limited or disputed, or the accident affects someone's ability to return to the same work they performed before being injured.

That's why an injury claim shouldn't be evaluated solely by looking at a damaged vehicle or one medical bill. The circumstances surrounding the accident and its impact on the injured person's life matter.

Have questions about your particular situation? Tapalian Law can review the facts and help you better understand your legal options.

A car accident can leave you shaken and unsure what to do next. Having a simple checklist saved on your phone can make it easier to gather important information while you're still at the scene.

When it is safe to do so, consider documenting:

✔ Full names and contact information
✔ Driver's license information
✔ Insurance company and policy information
✔ Vehicle make, model and license plate
✔ Date, time and location of the crash
✔ Witness names and contact information
✔ Photos or video of the vehicles, damage and scene
✔ Police report information, if officers respond

Also consider photographing the surrounding area, traffic signals, road conditions, debris, skid marks, and anything else that may help preserve what the scene looked like at the time.

And remember: your health comes first. If you're injured or experiencing symptoms, seek appropriate medical attention.

SAVE this post now so you have the checklist when you need it — and share it with someone who drives.
