FEARLESS REPRESENTATION

Orange County roadway
Accident Attorney

Not all car accidents involve negligent or reckless driving. In fact, some of the most devastating accidents are caused by poorly designed roads, hazardous conditions or poor road maintenance.

Accidents caused by these conditions, known as “roadway cases,” can result in traumatic brain injury, paralysis, broken bones - even death. The road to physical recovery can take years, and trauma can last a lifetime. In these situations, making a full financial recovery is critical to covering your medical bills, lost wages and compensating for pain and suffering.

Unfortunately, roadway cases must be litigated against large governmental agencies. Roadway lawsuits are complex, and often require expert testimony. The lawyer you hire may be one of the most important decisions you make after your accident.

  • Construction zones
  • Drainage defects
