Legal Support After a Car Accident in Wisconsin: Your Rights, Your Recovery
Car Accident

A car accident can change everything in an instant. Suddenly, you’re facing medical bills, lost wages, and physical and emotional pain — all while trying to make sense of what just happened. Our firm is committed to fighting for victims of car crashes across Wisconsin.

The Real Cost of a Car Accident

While some damages are obvious — like a totaled vehicle — others are harder to calculate. Our attorneys look beyond surface-level costs to build a case that reflects your total losses:

  • Medical Bills: Hospital visits, surgeries, prescriptions, physical therapy.
  • Lost Wages: Time away from work, missed opportunities, long-term disability.
  • Pain and Suffering: Chronic pain, PTSD, emotional trauma, lifestyle changes.
  • Vehicle Damage: Repairs or full replacement of your car.
  • Future Costs: Ongoing care, diminished earning capacity, home adjustments.

Our job is to make sure nothing is left off the table when we fight for your settlement or trial verdict.

Understanding Wisconsin Car Accident Law

Wisconsin follows a comparative negligence model. That means you can recover compensation even if you were partly at fault — as long as you weren’t more than 50% responsible. The key is evidence. We gather police reports, witness statements, medical records, and expert testimony to build a solid claim that puts the blame where it belongs.

You also have only three years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim. That’s why we recommend contacting an attorney as soon as possible.

Common Causes of Car Accidents We Handle

Every car accident has a cause — and often, it’s someone else’s poor decision or carelessness. Some of the most common factors we investigate include:

  • Distracted driving (texting, eating, adjusting controls)
  • Speeding or reckless driving
  • Drunk or impaired driving
  • Driver fatigue or inexperience
  • Poor road maintenance or weather-related hazards
  • Defective auto parts or mechanical failures

Our firm conducts thorough investigations to identify the root cause and prove liability.

"I was referred to Mike Karp from my chiropractor and I couldn't have been more pleased. My case took almost five years to settle. Mike did all the work and walked me through all the steps. He was so helpful, insightful, and knowledgeable. I knew I was in good hands and trusted his judgment with my case. When it came time to settle he was able to reach the max amount without going to court. I would definitely recommend Mike and would use him again if needed. Dana was also wonderful! I know I was taken care of throughout the whole process. Five stars plus!!!"
Loni Cloutier
"My husband and I were hit by an uninsured motorist, and I want to start this review by stating that I wish I could give my experience with Attorney Michael Karp and his team higher than a five star review! His professionalism and passion for helping us were apparent from our very first conversation/consultation, as well as every one there after. He truly cared about our situation and advocating for us. Attorney Karp took time to explain the process and answer our questions, as this is the first time we were in a car accident and did not know our options. He put us at ease right from the beginning with his knowledge, experience and his ongoing compassion. The interactions with his team were also amazing. They were very prompt in their responses and did a great job checking in and keeping us posted along the way. I am so grateful that I was referred to Attorney Michael Karp, and am happy to continue to refer him going forward!"
