Each day, thousands of auto accidents occur throughout the states. Whether reported to the police or not, these accidents can create thousands of dollars in personal injury or property damage. Because of this, auto accidents are one of the most commonly litigated types of lawsuits in courts today. In response to this, many states have enacted rules requiring accident parties to participate in mediation prior to proceeding to court.

The first step of any auto accident is identifying the party responsible for causing the accident. In many states, this identification will determine who has to pay for the damage or personal injury caused by the accident. Other states, however, have identified themselves as 'no fault' states. In these states it is irrelevant who caused the auto accident.

There are two main types of compensation available for parties injured in an auto crash. The first is referred to as economic damages. This type of damage compensates often called the injured party for any financial losses he or she incurred as a result of the auto accident. The amount of economic damages awarded to a party is often the exact amount he or she has spent for medical care or to fix property damage. The second type of compensation award is referred to as non-economic damages. This award compensates an injured party for the costs of the accident that are not easily calculable. Examples of damages included in non-economic damage awards include pain and suffering, mental distress and future medical expenses.

Auto accidents can be resolved in many different ways. Typically, an individual will first file a claim with his or the other party's auto insurance company. A party driving without auto insurance may be violating the law. If an individual is involved in an auto crash with uninsured driver, the individual may have to file a claim with his own insurance company.

If the resolution of the claim does not fully compensate the injured party, the parties can then proceed to mediation or court. Mediation is an out-of-court legal proceeding in which a neutral third party attempts to negotiate a deal acceptable to both parties. If an agreement is reached and a document containing the agreement typed up by the mediator and signed, the parties are bound to that agreement. Typically, a mediation agreement awards money to an injured party. If mediation fails, the parties may proceed to court and litigate the issue. Many states require parties involved in an auto accident dispute to attempt mediation before filing a court case. If, however, the case proceeds to court, the judge or jury will calculate the amount of damages, if any, and award the amount to the injured party.
