Yes--You do have a claim. If you are injured, you have a claim for your injuries and if you have property damage, you also have a claim for that. If you have any more questions, go ahead and contact me.

Re: rearend auto accident

Yes, based on the limited facts you presented, you would have a case, not just for the auto body damage to your vehicle, but also for any physical injuries suffered by you during the collision. Likewise, any injured passengers in your vehicle would likely also have valid claims against the driver(s) who caused the collision.

Please feel free to contact me for additional assistance.

Sincerely,
