Car Accident Lawyer Serving All of Mobile County
Mobile County stretches from the Port of Mobile at the bay up through Saraland, Citronelle, and Mount Vernon in the north, and from Eight Mile and Chickasaw in the west to the industrial corridors along Theodore-Dawes Road in the south. When a car accident happens anywhere in this county, Simmons Law is the firm Mobile County residents call.
Chris Simmons personally handles every case. Not a paralegal, not a junior associate — Chris reviews your file, takes your calls, and works your case from start to finish.
The Clock Starts the Day of Your Crash
Alabama Code § 6-2-38 gives car accident victims two years from the date of the crash to file a personal injury lawsuit. Two years sounds like a long time. It is not.
Insurance adjusters for the at-fault driver know exactly when your deadline is. Their strategy is simple: delay, devalue, deny. They run out the clock while you're focused on recovering. When your two-year window closes, your case closes with it — permanently. No exceptions.
At Simmons Law, the first call triggers an immediate investigation. Accident reports from the Mobile Police Department and Mobile County Sheriff's Office, witness statements, intersection camera footage from Airport Boulevard and Government Street, black box data from the at-fault vehicle — all of it has a shelf life. The sooner it gets preserved, the stronger the case.
Mobile County's Most Dangerous Roads
Mobile County has some of the most heavily traveled corridors in South Alabama. I-10 through the Bayway carries an average of over 100,000 vehicles daily, including a substantial mix of commercial trucks moving cargo in and out of the Port of Mobile. When a crash happens on the Bayway, it is not just dangerous — it is catastrophic, with limited escape routes and water on both sides.
Airport Boulevard sees high-speed rear-end collisions and intersection crashes throughout the day. Government Street, Springhill Avenue, Old Shell Road, and Dauphin Street handle heavy residential and commercial traffic through the heart of Mobile. I-65 through the county carries interstate truck traffic north and south. Schillinger Road in west Mobile and Theodore-Dawes Road through the industrial south corridor generate consistent crash volumes tied to commercial and delivery vehicle activity.
During Mardi Gras season — February through March — downtown Mobile adds pedestrian congestion, alcohol-related accidents, and event-night traffic patterns that dramatically increase crash risk on Dauphin Street and the surrounding corridors.
What Happens After a Mobile County Car Accident
If you were hurt in a car crash anywhere in Mobile County, your case will be filed in the Mobile County Circuit Court at 205 Government Street, Mobile, AL 36644. Chris Simmons knows that courthouse, those judges, and that jury pool. Local knowledge matters in litigation.
Injuries from serious Mobile County car accidents are typically treated at the University of South Alabama Medical Center, Mobile Infirmary on Springhill Avenue, or Springhill Medical Center. If your medical bills are already piling up and you haven't spoken to an attorney, that is a problem that needs to be fixed today.
Insurance companies will contact you quickly after a crash — sometimes within hours. They will sound helpful. They are building a file to minimize what they pay you. Do not give a recorded statement, do not accept a settlement, and do not sign anything without speaking to a lawyer first.
