Common Causes of Personal Injuries in Torrance

Our law firm specializes solely on personal injury cases, meaning you can expect exceptional service in areas in which we fully understand how to navigate the legal process. If you’re dealing with devastating injuries and/or losses, and have expensive medical bills while struggling to pay the rent and for daily expenses, you don’t want an attorney with a generalized practice. Instead, you need a lawyer who has years of experience and a long list of clients who have been duly compensated for injuries and damages.

Jacob Emrani is highly experienced with following types of claims:

Car Accidents

A car accident that wasn’t your fault can leave you severely injured. Yet insurance adjusters will try to pin liability on you to reduce payout. Our attorney fights for your rights to prove liabilities such as driver negligence, excessive speed, distracted driving, failure to signal or yield right of way, or driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. These are common causes of accidents in Torrance. Sometimes drivers follow too closely, causing unsafe conditions, or there may be a vehicle malfunction due to a defective part.

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists are at an especially high risk of injury because their vehicles lack protection. There is no automobile frame or airbags to buffer the impact. Often thrown from their motorcycles, riders injured in a crash often deal with road rash, broken bones, and severe internal injuries. A head injury can have lifelong consequences. Drivers often don’t notice motorcycles for many reasons, while defective parts and road defects such as potholes can trigger an accident. Still, many insurance companies try to put the blame on motorcyclists for careless lane changing or lane-splitting, but we have the resources to prove whether such actions occurred or not.

Truck Accidents

Big rigs and 18-wheelers are much larger than the average vehicle, which puts other motorists at a higher risk of injury or death. Unsafe lane changes, jackknife accidents, rollovers, and underride accidents have had catastrophic results throughout the Los Angeles area. Sudden braking and negligent driving can cause a truck cab to swerve into another lane. Oftentimes the causes include lack of maintenance, overloading, speeding, driver fatigue, and insufficient training. If the driver wasn’t properly trained, someone else loaded the cargo, or there was an equipment malfunction, multiple parties may be held liable.

Workplace

Accidents at work include slip and fall, burn, and impact injuries, just to name a few. The lasting effects can leave you unable to perform your job duties, and include back pain, neck injuries, broken bones, paralysis, loss of limbs, internal bleeding, and whiplash. Spinal cord and traumatic brain injuries occur as well on jobsites. The most complex of construction accident cases require experienced Torrance personal injury attorneys to sort out what led to an injury, and whether an employer may be responsible for hazardous conditions that caused a fall or other accident.

Bicycle

The number of bicyclists on Torrance roads continues to increase. In many places, transportation infrastructure does not support so many bicycle riders, but motorists are often unaware bicycle riders are present. Bicycles are used for recreation and commuting. Helmet laws (for riders under 18), lights (for nighttime riding), and other legal requirements are designed to protect bicyclists, who must follow the same rules of the road as motorists. Still, there are many risks on Torrance’s busy streets, and many motorists are simply not good at sharing the road.

Pedestrian

Pedestrians are unprotected and vulnerable. Although they can contribute to accidents by texting or not crossing at crosswalks, oftentimes a motorist is speeding or distracted. Poor visibility at night contributes to the accident risk. Driving under the influence, driver fatigue, and aggression and impatience also put pedestrians in danger. Sometimes, determining fault is challenging. Complicating matters are situations such as when a crosswalk is poorly marked or a construction zone blocks a public sidewalk, forcing a pedestrian to walk in the street.

Types of Compensation Available for Personal Injury

There are three types of damages you may be entitle to.

  1. Compensatory damages pay you for costs incurred as a result of the injury, including medical bills, missed pay, and lost future income. One can seek damages for specific issues such as pain or high blood pressure, which have prevented them from enjoying normal activities, while payment for repairs or destroyed property may also fall into this category.
  2. General damages, on the other hand, include monetary compensation for mental anguish, pain and suffering, and loss of consortium or companionship. The value of such damages are not easily quantified as a dollar amount, but estimated by your legal team or a judge.
  3. Punitive damages are intended to punish the defendant for their alleged involvement or contribution to the accident. They’re awarded when the defendant is found guilty of malicious acts, fraudulent behavior causing financial harm, or manufacturing a defective product.

Statute of Limitations in Torrance

In California, a statute of limitations of two years applies to most personal injury cases. That means you have 24 months from the date the injury took place to file a claim for your losses. If you weren’t aware of the injury immediately after the accident, you have one year from when you discovered the injury to file your claim. The statute of limitations may be altered if the defendant declares bankruptcy, a minor is injured (the two-year period will start when they reach 18), or the defendant is out of state, in prison, or insane.
