Traffic Accidents in California 

According to statistics, more than 300,000 car accidents occur annually in California. While no one ever expects to be involved in an accident, the reality is that hundreds of collisions occur every day on our local roadways. Drivers can take certain steps in order to reduce their risk of a crash but the risk can never be eliminated entirely. This is due to the fact that negligent drivers are very prevalent in California. It is estimated that more than 80% of all collisions are caused by driver negligence. In other words, the large majority of crashes could have been prevented through the use of ordinary care and caution.

Following a crash, you are likely to have questions regarding your legal rights and your future. This may seem like an uncertain and difficult time and your future can seem bleak. While the road to recovery is often long and daunting, there is help available. Under California’s personal injury laws, accident victims could be entitled to compensation for their losses.
