San Fernando Valley is home to 1.7 million people and many car accidents:
The San Fernando Valley is home to nearly two million people. Five major freeways plus Interstate Highway 5 run across it. Like just everywhere else in Los Angeles, automobiles remain the primary form of transportation. While it is rich with tourist attractions, winding roads, glorious views, it is also home to many types of car accidents.
Many of the car accidents in the valley occur at our intersections. Someone may be trying to beat the red light or squeeze in the last left hand turn. Or, maybe they were distracted by a text message or other social media app notification. Due to this, many of the accidents in the valley we encounter are rear-end accidents and t-bone accidents.
Here are a few of the intersections which we have heard about more than a couple of times. You may want to pay close attention to these intersections when driving, biking, or walking through them:
- Balboa and Devonshire
- Coldwater Canyon Avenue and Vanowen Street
- Sherman Way and Woodman Avenue
- Devonshire Street and Reseda Boulevard
- De Soto Avenue and Nordhoff Street
- Roscoe Boulevard and Winnetka Avenue
- Reseda Boulevard and Victory Boulevard
Damages that can be claimed after a car accident
Even with crumple zones, air bags and seat belts, no part of the body is fully protected from injury in a car crash. Victims can suffer traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries, disc herniations, fractures and hyperextension-hyperflexion injuries. Some of these injuries can be debilitating and painful. They could require a lifetime of medical care and treatment. There's no question that some people don't survive their car accident injuries either.
If you were severely injured in a motor vehicle accident that resulted from the carelessness and negligence of somebody else, or if a family member died in such a crash, you're likely entitled to compensation for your injuries or the wrongful death of that family member. That compensation might consist of:
- Past medical bills and medical bills reasonably expected to be incurred in the future
- Past lost earnings and earnings reasonably expected to be incurred in the future
- Any permanent disfigurement
- Any permanent disability
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of a normal life
- Funeral and burial costs in the event of a wrongful death
Do I need a San Fernando Valley Car Accident Lawyer?
One of the biggest problems people face when trying to obtain compensation from an insurer is proving negligence. That's why in most instances when we accept a case you will obtain more compensation for an injury than you would receive without an attorney.
When you attempt to work against the opposing insurance company on your own, that insurer has you right where it wants you. They will attempt to take control of the case, and try to obtain a recorded statement as to your version of events or a medical authorization to pull every medical record in existence that pertains to you since your birth. You do not have to give these, and if you do, the insurer will use both your recorded statement and your medical authorization against you in the future.
Our professional training and experience in civil procedure and evidence is extensive. We know how to properly protect and invoke your rights. We're certainly not going to prejudice them like most people are likely to do if they try and tackle that insurance company on their own. Remember that no matter how concerned that insurance adjuster sounds, his or her job is to pay as little as possible or nothing at all on your claim. Full and fair compensation requires legal arm twisting.
