Every day, drivers find themselves in dangerous situations simply because they can’t see what’s beside them. Blind spots are areas around a vehicle that are invisible to the driver without properly positioned mirrors, and they exist in nearly every type of vehicle—cars, trucks, boats, and even aircraft. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports that nearly 840,000 blind spot accidents happen each year, resulting in 300 tragic fatalities.
But beyond the physical risks, these accidents carry serious legal and financial consequences. If you’ve been involved in a blind spot accident, you need someone who understands the legal landscape and can advocate for your rights. That’s where Herrman and Herrman Personal Injury Lawyers come in.

We can help you if you have been harmed by the following:
- Car accidents – Our lawyers have extensive experience handling car accident cases.

Our personal injury lawyers will work to cut through the bias and stigma against motorcycle riders. Our goal is to seek the financial compensation that you’ll need to recover from a serious motorcycle accident and injuries such as bone fractures, road rash, or traumatic brain injury.
- Product liability – Product manufacturers have a legal obligation to make products that are safe for their intended uses and to warn consumers of any risks that may come with the product. When products have design or manufacturing defects or undisclosed dangers, the product manufacturer may be legally responsible for injuries suffered by consumers. Our attorneys can help you evaluate whether you have a valid product liability claim.
- Brain injury – Brain injuries can leave accident victims with disabilities that leave them unable to work or perform many tasks of daily living. Seeking compensation for a brain injury in an accident often proves incredibly complex. The brain injury survivor may seek compensation for anticipated future medical care and the medical care already provided. Our personal injury lawyers can help you through the difficult recovery process following a brain injury and will fight to make sure you have the resources you need.

Our attorney can help you determine whether you may be entitled to claim compensation for your injury and expenses related to living with the disability, such as making a home more accessible.
