Vehicle Accidents in California
Unfortunately, the reason why thousands of people are seriously injured or lose their lives every year in vehicle accidents is due to driver’s error. All it takes is for a driver to be on their cell phone for a few seconds before a serious accident occurs. Other causes include driving under the influence, speeding, conversing with passengers, malfunctioning auto-parts, and more.
Once the police finalize what caused this accident and who will be held liable, it’s likely that personal injury lawsuits and a wrongful death lawsuit will get filed with the help of a California attorney.
