George County, AL- Two men were killed and two others seriously injured Saturday in a single vehicle accident in George County.

Police said the accident occurred around 5 p.m. on U.S. 98 when the driver of a Jeep left the roadway on the right side. The driver attempted to return to the road but over corrected, the Jeep then flipped over several times and came to rest on the left median. None of the four men in the vehicle were wearing safety belts.

Two men, Jordan Cooper, 15, and Richard Lee, 32, were ejected from the vehicle and died on the scene. Two other men, Benjamin Brewer, 35, and Kevin Ferguson, 24, were seriously injured and taken to University of Alabama hospital in Mobile.

Police are still investigating the accident and have not determined who was driving the car.

When an Alabama accident attorney can determine who is at fault for the accident, they will be able to build a case so that the family of the injured or deceased can seek compensation from the negligent party.

The victims of auto accidents often become temporarily or permanently disabled. While they recover from their injuries their medical costs will accumulate driving them deeper in debt. A highly-skilled Alabama accident lawyer is their best chance of recovering these costs so they don’t have to pay a dime out of their own pockets.

Along with personal injuries, auto accidents can also result in property damage. An Alabama accident attorney can work to make sure the auto accident victim receives a just settlement for their pain and suffering.
