Traffic Accidents in Torrance

There is a lot of traffic flowing in and through Torrance. In 2014, more than 2 million miles were driven on Torrance roads each day. That year, Torrance traffic accidents caused 889 injuries and deaths. Given Torrance’s inviting recreational atmosphere, it may not be surprising that more than 15% of these injuries and deaths were sustained by motorcyclists, pedestrians, and bicyclists. According to the Office of Traffic Safety, speeding was a significant factor in at least 185 of these accidents. Alcohol, cited as a contributing factor in at least 68 of these accidents, was also a significant component. In fact, more than 300 DUI arrests were made in Torrance that year.

Recovering Compensation You Deserve Following an Accident

We understand that the time following a Torrance accident can be incredibly stressful. This is even truer if you are recovering from a debilitating injury or grieving the loss of a loved one in a tragic accident. Unfortunately, the costs associated with a personal injury accident traditionally contribute to the already overwhelming situation.

According to a study by Bankrate.com, only 37% of Americans have enough in savings to pay for a $500 emergency. The majority of Americans are forced to make difficult decisions when faced with a financial emergency. Some may choose to rack up extraordinary credit card debt and others may have family who can step in with a loan. Following a Torrance personal injury accident, the costs you incur may even be too extraordinary to cover with credit cards and family assistance. A 2013 study found that the average cost of a car accident personal injury claim was $15,443.

You should not be forced into burdensome credit card debt to cover the expenses you have after an accident. How, then, can you pay for the costs associated with a Torrance injury-causing accident? The experienced accident injury attorneys at Citywide Law Group can help you get the compensation you need through a personal injury claim for damages. For the past 17 years, our skilled attorneys have helped thousands of accident victims recover millions in compensation. We can fight to get the negligent party and/or their insurance company to compensate you for your injuries, too. Compensation obtained through a personal injury claim for damages can help to diffuse an already stressful and overwhelming situation.

Why Should You Hire a Personal Injury Attorney?

Take Away the Insurance Company’s Advantage

Your chances of maximizing the settlement offer you receive increase when you hire an experienced Torrance personal injury attorney to represent you. Insurance companies will try to sweet-talk you into agreeing to an early settlement offer. They will not have your best interest at heart. They will hope that the stress of the situation and your inexperience with the law will be enough to get you to agree to an offer that is far too low. If you work directly with the insurance company you will be negotiating with professionals.

Hiring a personal injury attorney to represent you will put you on a level playing field. Insurance companies will not be able to prey on your lack of legal knowledge. Instead, they will be forced to negotiate with the tough negotiators at Citywide Law Group. We understand how these insurance companies operate and the ways in which they will try to minimize or deny your compensation. Having an experienced attorney on your side helps to ensure that your claim will not be undervalued or underpaid.

You’re Stressed Out

Again, accidents are incredibly overwhelming and stressful. You should be focused on your physical and emotional recovery after an accident. Hiring an attorney to represent you allows you to focus on yourself. Why take on the burden of trying to understand California’s complex personal injury laws when you can have an attorney do the work for you? We are your advocates, and we will fight to recover the compensation you need to get back on your feet.

You May Not Know How Much Your Claim Is Worth

Maybe you’re not fully aware of the extent of your injuries. Or, maybe you’re relying on a preliminary assessment given to you by an insurance company. Many personal accident victims underestimate the true value of their personal injury claims. This causes far too many accident victims to accept settlement offers that are insufficient to cover the costs associated with an accident.

When you hire a personal injury attorney you can be confident that your claim will be properly valued. At Citywide Law Group we have a team of experts who can help to analyze and explain the long-term consequences of your injuries. This will help you understand the true value of your personal injury claim.
