Top Car Accident Lawyers in Richmond, CA

A car crash can happen anywhere at any time in Richmond. Many people are hurt in speeding-related crashes on one of the highways in the area, such as I-80, I-580, the Richmond Parkway, and CA-123. Some are injured in accidents with distracted drivers on Carlson Boulevard or Ohio Avenue. Others suffer in T-bone accidents at a dangerous intersection, such as:

• 21st St & Barrett Ave
• 23rd St & Roosevelt Ave
• W Ohio Ave & Canal Blvd
• Cutting Blvd & Carlson Blvd
• Cutting Blvd & S 49th St

You may have been going out to eat or to do some shopping, or you may have been coming back from a day at Rosie the Riveter-World War II Home Front National Historic Park, Point Pinole Regional Shoreline, or Wildcat Canyon Regional Park. Then a negligent driver turned your trip into a nightmare.
 

Recovering compensation after an accident is a complicated process. One reason is that negligent drivers often won’t admit to doing anything wrong – even if they were speeding, texting, or falling asleep at the wheel. That puts you in the position of having to prove the other driver was responsible for the crash. Another reason is that insurance companies really aren’t interested in paying you for all of the damage you suffered. They are interested in paying you as little as possible to help protect their bottom line. How do they do this? They’ll question the seriousness of your injuries. They’ll say your injuries happened before the crash. They’ll make you a lowball settlement offer. Or they’ll blame you for what happened.
 

A lawyer knows how to build a strong case built on facts, using information from the accident report completed by the Richmond Police Department or California Highway Patrol. A lawyer will determine the full extent of your injuries, using information from your medical records at the facility that treated you – such as Richmond Medical Center, LifeLong Immediate/Urgent Care, RotaCare Richmond Free Clinic, or Alta Bates Summit Medical Center. Your attorney can also deal directly with the insurance company so you can focus on getting better.
