Los Angeles Rear-End Accident Lawyers

One of the most common accident types is a rear-end collision accident.

REAR-END CRASHES CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURIES

Rear-end crashes have the potential to be serious, especially when they occur at high speeds. In fact, rear-end crashes can even be fatal. Serious injuries that may result from a rear-end collision include:

• Whiplash;
• Soft tissue injuries;
• Back and neck injuries;
• Facial injuries;
• Bone fracture injuries;
• Internal injuries;
• Seat belt injuries; and
• Traumatic brain injuries.

This list is not inclusive, nor does it speak to the psychological injuries that a person harmed in a rear-end collision may incur post-crash, including depression, anxiety, or post-traumatic stress disorder.

WHO’S LIABLE FOR DAMAGES AFTER A REAR-END CRASH?

In order to recover compensation after a rear-end crash, you will need to prove the fault of the responsible driver. There is an incorrect assumption made about rear-end crashes that the driver in the rear who hits the driver in the vehicle in the front is always at fault and that rear-end crashes are only ever a result of following too closely. But this is hardly true; other causes of rear-end crashes include improper and sudden stopping, defective brake lights, illegal lane changes, intentionally tapping brakes, distracted driving, and more.

Our Los Angeles car accident lawyers will thoroughly investigate your crash to determine the precise cause of your accident and assist you in your claim for damages. If you have been blamed for the accident by virtue of being the rear driver, we can help you to fight this accusation and present evidence to the contrary.

In addition to investigating your crash and proving fault (including hiring experts and paying for all up-front experts’ fees), we will also build your claim, organize documentation, determine the value of your claim, send a demand letter to the appropriate party, review and negotiate your settlement, and even take your case to court if necessary.
