Frequent Accident Areas And Local Causes

Ocean Drive And Memorial Boulevard Collisions

Sharp turns, ocean winds, and heavy tourist traffic along Ocean Drive increase accident risk year-round. Memorial Boulevard sees congestion from hotel, beach, and restaurant traffic, leading to rear-end and lane-change crashes. Our team uses surveillance footage and local witness accounts to support liability claims.

Bridge And Highway Crashes Near Route 138

Accidents on or approaching the Newport Bridge often involve high-speed impact and sudden stops. These crashes can cause serious injuries such as fractures or head trauma. Inman & Tourgee works with medical and engineering experts to calculate damages and prove negligence.

Parking And Downtown Street Incidents

Narrow downtown streets like Thames Street and Broadway experience minor collisions and parking impacts. Even low-speed crashes may cause soft tissue injuries or long-term pain. We ensure every injury, no matter the size, is properly documented for full compensation.
