As Inland Empire personal injury attorneys, we have been serving San Bernardino and Riverside Counties for over 2 decades. We have helped people injured or the families of persons killed by negligent or wrongful acts from Barstow and Victorville to Temecula and all parts in between. The Inland Empire is unique in its geographic diversity from the mountains of Big Bear to the deserts of Death Valley and with this diverse landscape, unfortunately, comes chances for mishaps that can result in personal injury or wrongful death. Some of the more common scenarios we have seen in our 20 plus years as lawyers helping accident victims are as follows:
Auto Accidents Going to and From Las Vegas: Las Vegas is a great destination for fun and relaxation but getting to and from Vegas is sometimes fraught with peril. Interstate 15 (also known as State Road 15 [SR15] or the 15 Freeway is a road that stretches from San Diego County through Riverside and San Bernardino Counties and into Nevada. Anyone who has driven this thoroughfare knows that the highway 15 is a road that widens and narrows, has turns and changes in elevation and upon which the speed limit varies. All of these factors and the fact that there is extremely high traffic volume especially during holiday weekends like Memorial Day or Labor Day, creates an environment for major traffic accidents. The route is also used heavily by big rig tractor trailer and other commercial vehicles to transport freight and these large motor vehicles operate side by side with smaller cars, trucks and SUVs. It only takes a moment of someone traveling too fast or making unsafe lane changes to cause a major traffic accident including multi-vehicle pile ups. Our attorneys have represented hundreds of car accident victims recover monetary compensation after a major crash going to or coming from Las Vegas on the 15.
Motor Vehicle Accidents in Desert or High Desert Communities: The desert and high desert areas like the Coachella Valley in Riverside County, Death Valley, Joshua Tree and the high desert communities of the Inland Empire are great places to get out and enjoy recreational activities like off roading or four wheeling. Unfortunately, this sometimes leads to crashes caused by negligence or sometimes even reckless driving. In addition, desert roads are often only two lanes and people trying to pass (sometimes over a double yellow line or without properly observing oncoming traffic) can cause head on collisions with major injuries or fatalities. We have helped many accident victims obtain compensation for medical expenses, lost income and pain and suffering related to these types of motor vehicle accidents.
Car Accidents in the San Bernardino Mountains: In the winter, it is great that we have ski resorts and other winter activities in Big Bear and Lake Arrowhead. The San Bernardino Mountains also provide a great place for outdoor recreation and boating in the summer months. With all this activity and weather factors such as icy roads and snow reducing visibility comes car accidents. In addition, boating accidents happen on Lake Arrowhead and other bodies of water. These incidents are sometimes due to negligent driving or even drunk driving or boating. We have represented accident victims in these scenarios many times in the past 20 plus years.
Dangerous Property Conditions Causing Slip or Trip and Falls: Again, given the diversity of terrain, elevation and weather conditions that can happen in the desert and high desert regions of the Inland Empire, slip and falls and other incidents occur which cause personal injury. When these result from a residential or commercial property owner negligently inspecting or maintaining their premises, a legal claim may lie. We have recovered money for these accident victims many times over the years including a million dollar plus settlement for a death related to improper property maintenance.
Dog Bites: From people dwelling in the cities of San Bernardino or Riverside to suburban areas like Rancho Cucamonga or Redlands to more rural areas, people love dogs. As pets and companions they can be great but, sometimes dog owners allow their animals to roam freely. This often causes confrontations between dogs and people out jogging or even walking their own dog. California law provides that a dog owner is strictly liable for their pet biting someone even if the dog hadn’t shown a propensity to be aggressive. We have helped many dog bite victims in the Inland Empire recover money for doctor bills and emotional trauma related to these types of animal attacks.
