San Jose Personal Injury Attorneys To Win Your Case

Who doesn’t love living and working in San Jose? Even the venerable Forbes magazine waxed poetic over the many highlights of the city. From our cultural and economic opportunities to the area’s natural beauty and perfect climate, we have much to enjoy.

Unfortunately, we have to deal with some less attractive aspects of this area—one of which is the high rate of injury accidents we see every year in our city.

Traffic accident-related deaths are high and still rising, as are vehicle-pedestrian collisions. In fact, last year was the deadliest year for pedestrians in more than two decades. Electric scooter accidents are becoming more common by the day, as are bicycle, hit and run, and rideshare accidents from services like Uber and Lyft.

Commercial trucking accidents involving 18-wheelers, semi-trucks, and other heavy commercial vehicles pose an ever-present challenge in San Jose and throughout the Bay Area. Data from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) ranks California and the Bay Area as having some of the highest rates of large truck and bus crashes in the country.

No matter how careful you are when you get behind the wheel of your car, take a walk, or go out for a bike ride, you could fall victim to the reckless, careless, or negligent actions of someone else at any time. If you or a loved one does sustain injuries, you deserve to have work with one of the highest rated car accident lawyers in San Jose CA.

We are often asked how much the average personal injury settlement is. Unfortunately, that’s an impossible question to answer. What you really need to know if how much your personal injury claim value might be.

In personal injury cases, victims typically have the right to recover compensation for all of their physical, emotional, and financial damages. This could include compensation for your medical care costs, lost income, pain and suffering, disability, or disfigurement.

We can assist you no matter what type of injuries you or a loved one sustained, including:

• Trauma activation,
• Hospitalization,
• Air lifted / Flight for Life,
• Serious injury,
• Surgery, and
• Death.

If you are hospitalized or otherwise incapacitated, we will send someone to you, wherever you may be. We also have the ability to consult with you via secure video conferencing channels as well as by phone and email. This helps ensure your health and well-being and allows us to serve you whether you’re housebound or out of town.
