• In 2017 there were more than 3,500 fatalities on
  California roads and a significantly higher
  number of injuries sustained in motor vehicle
  accidents. Fontana car accident attorneys know
  that car accident injuries can be disruptive and
  life changing and if someone else caused the
  accident, innocent injury victims deserve to be
  compensated.

• It is important for injured car accident victims
  to have experienced car accident attorneys
  advocating on their behalf in order to protect
  their rights and secure a full and fair financial
  recovery.

PERSONAL INJURY AND WRONGFUL DEATH CLAIMS

• Depending on the injuries and damages sustained,
  car accident plaintiffs may be entitled to
  compensation under a personal injury claim or if
  the accident injuries were fatal, under a
  wrongful death claim.
• Personal injury compensation may include pain and
  suffering, lost wages, loss of earning capacity,
  medical expenses, future medical expenses, and
  property damage.
• Wrongful death recovery may include, but is not
  limited to damages such as funeral and burial
  expenses, loss of financial support, loss of
  gifts or benefits, the value of household
  services that the deceased would have provided,
  loss of love and companionship, loss of care, and
  loss of guidance.

PUNITIVE DAMAGES

• Under California law, punitive damages may
  sometimes be awarded in car accident cases. The
  purpose of punitive damages is to punish the
  defendant and discourage that type of conduct
  from happening again.
• Punitive damages are only awarded when the
  defendant acted with malice, oppression, or
  fraud. In car accident cases, it will generally
  be necessary to show that the defendants conduct
  was despicable and that he or she acted with a
  knowing disregard of the rights or safety of
  others.

5
INSURANCE SETTLEMENTS

• Especially when liability is clear, defendant
  insurance companies are known to contact injured
  parties right after car accidents with what seems
  like an urgent settlement agreement.
• There is no real reason for that urgency other
  than they want to get plaintiffs locked into a
  settlement agreement and waiver of liability
  before they have a chance to speak with an
  attorney or discover the full extent of their
  injuries and damages.
• Insurance companies make offers that seem very
  generous and fair, covering medical bills,
  property damage, and incidentals, but they are
  not plaintiffs advocates and they have no duty
  to tell plaintiffs what their claims are actually
  worth.
