Criminal Law

• Wrongful Death
  Pedestrians are completely vulnerable and therefore suffer a vastly disproportionate amount of severe injuries and wrongful death when an accident involving a motor vehicle occurs. Approximately 4,743 pedestrians were killed (14% of all traffic fatalities), and 76,000 pedestrians suffered injuries, in U.S. traffic accidents in 2012, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Pedestrian accidents raise unique issues, and may involve pedestrians or joggers who are struck in a crosswalk, sideswiped by a motor vehicle, struck while in a parking lot, struck while exiting a bus or car, or otherwise injured or killed by a driver who is at fault. All too often, drivers are inattentive to the presence of pedestrians and don't sufficiently look in the direction their car is traveling.

Property Law

• Premises Liability
  If a person is injured on the property of another, a court will impose liability on the property owner or possessor under premises liability law if (1) the property owner or possessor owed the injured person a duty of care and (2) the property owner or possessor breached that duty of care. Whether the property owner or possessor owed the injured person a duty of care, as well as the extent of care owed, depends on the relationship between the person owning or holding the property and the injured person.
• Property Damage
  Special Damages include any quantifiable damages that can be added up such as medical bills, lost wages, property damage, impairment to earning capacity.

Health Law

• Personal Injury
  Two years. That’s the amount of time you generally have under California Law from the date of your injury to file a lawsuit. In addition to the general two year California Statute of Limitations, there may be additional notification deadlines if, for example, your personal injury claim is against the State of California, a California state agency or a Public Entity. That’s why it’s important to hire an attorney as soon as possible when you have been seriously injured as a result of someone else’s negligence.
