Finding Crash Footage in the DOT Database

Harnessing Technology for Top Compensation

When securing top compensation in personal injury cases, having the right tools can make all the difference. Recent technological advancements have provided personal injury lawyers with an invaluable asset: video footage of accidents. Here’s how video evidence reshapes the legal landscape for truck accident victims in Kentucky.

In personal injury cases, having the best evidence can make all the difference in securing a favorable outcome for clients. At Sam Aguiar Injury Lawyers, we leverage innovative tools such as the Department of Transportation (DOT) camera footage database to find and pull crucial crash footage. Our team can access historical footage from Kentucky’s statewide network of approximately 275 DOT cameras. This allows us to gather evidence from the accident scene, showing what transpired. This technology allows us to provide undeniable proof in cases where eyewitness accounts and police reports may fall short.

The Importance of Crash Footage

Video evidence can be a game changer in vehicle accidents. It provides an objective view of the incident, eliminating ambiguities often arising from conflicting stories. This is particularly vital in high-stakes cases involving commercial vehicles like semi-trucks. Once we obtain the footage, our legal team analyzes it to build a strong case.

In a recent case, our firm acquired video footage from a wreck involving a semi-truck and our client. This evidence supported our client’s account and revealed critical details that the truck driver neglected to disclose. The video shows the impact and the driver’s reaction after the accident. He is seen on his Bluetooth, failing to check on our client, who is trapped in her vehicle. This evidence is invaluable and can significantly influence the outcome of the case. The footage we secured in this case is projected to be worth tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of dollars in added case value for our client. By providing clear evidence of negligence, we can advocate for our clients more effectively, ensuring they receive the compensation they deserve for their injuries and damages.

Commitment to Our Clients

Using DOT camera footage is just one of the many tools in our arsenal at Sam Aguiar Injury Lawyers. It enhances our ability to present a compelling case, ensuring that justice is served and our clients are protected.

Great experience with the Team here! This was the first time I sought legal assistance for an accident and I was not sure what to expect or how the process worked. Peyton and Cheymez were wonderful and took time to explain every part of the process and answer any questions I had along the way. They got me a great settlement and I would recommend them to anyone needing a professional and dependable attorney.

I highly recommend Sam Agiar and his law firm for their exceptional service and results. After my accident, Sam fought relentlessly to secure the largest possible settlement while also negotiating significant reductions in my medical bills. Even when I was wrongfully found 30% at fault—which could have drastically reduced my compensation—Sam demonstrated incredible integrity by voluntarily lowering his firm’s fee by 30% to ensure I received fair treatment.

What truly impressed me was Sam’s personal commitment to his clients. Unlike many law firms where you have to navigate a maze of receptionists or automated systems, Sam answers his phone directly. This level of accessibility made me feel valued and reassured throughout the entire process. He was always available to answer questions, provide updates, and offer support.

If you want a lawyer who combines aggressive advocacy with genuine care for his clients, Sam Agiar is the best choice. Thank you, Sam and team, for your dedication and outstanding results!
