Motor Vehicle Accidents

Representing Auto Accident Victims

If you have been involved in a motor vehicle accident, you may be dealing with major injuries. These sorts of injuries can cause you to rack up huge medical expenses over time, as well as interfering temporarily or permanently with your ability to work and earn money.

It’s worth your time to find out whether someone owes you compensation for your injuries, and if so, to pursue it with the help of a skilled personal injury lawyer who is familiar with the legal system in Lake County and Mendocino County. Contact me, Lakeport motor vehicle accident attorney for a free consultation to discuss your case.

Going Up Against the Insurance Companies

Everyone who drives a motor vehicle in California is supposed to carry auto insurance, in part so that people injured in accidents can be compensated. Insurance companies, however, are in the business of making money and will always try to avoid or reduce payouts.

I used to work at a law firm that does insurance defense, so I understand what the insurance companies are thinking and how they make decisions. I will work hard to get you what you deserve from these companies. Learn more about these specific motor vehicle accidents:

  • Car accidents
  • Truck accidents
  • Motorcycle accidents

I also represent individuals who have been injured in boating accidents, bicycle and pedestrian accidents, drunk driving accidents, hit-and-run accidents, and other auto accidents.

Driving Accident

More than 2 million people were injured in auto accidents in 2010 according to a recent report from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that 16 percent of all fatal auto crashes and 21 percent of all auto crashes causing injury were the result of distracted driving.

One of the most common types of distracted driving is texting and driving. Studies show that drivers who are typing, sending or reading texts are at a much higher risk of causing auto accidents.

If you or a family member has been injured in a motor vehicle accident that was caused by a distracted driver, I encourage you to contact me. I represent clients in all distracted driving claims, including those involving:

  • Texting and driving
  • Negligent use of a cell phone
  • Eating or drinking
  • Arguing with passengers
  • Grooming or applying makeup
  • Use of GPS and other electronic devices

I am committed to helping people who have been injured due to the negligence and wrongdoing of others. To schedule a free consultation, contact my law office in Lakeport, California.

Put My Experience To Work For You

I have more than a decade of experience in personal injury law. I have represented clients who have sustained a wide range of injuries, including back and neck injuries, broken bones, knee and shoulder injuries, head trauma and other serious injuries. I also have experience advocating on behalf of family members in wrongful death claims.

As a former prosecutor and a former insurance defense lawyer, I have considerable trial experience and strong negotiation skills. I take time to prepare cases for trial and negotiate with a firm resolve. I vigorously pursue maximum compensation on behalf of accident victims. As a client of my firm, you will have a strong advocate on your side.
