Driving is an activity that requires full and complete attention at all times. Unfortunately, it is all too common for drivers to become distracted, even if only for a brief moment. A severe accident can occur in a split-second resulting in serious injuries. At Ventura, Ribeiro & Smith, our auto accident lawyers in Danbury and other locations fight to get compensation for the victims of inattentive drivers. We will help you pick up the pieces so you can move forward with your life.
Inattentive Driving Can Take Many Forms

- Cellphone use
- Eating and drinking
- Changing radio stations
