PEDESTRIAN Accidents
We're the experts in Pedestrian Cases. We recovered $5 Million Dollars in Ponce v. AC Transit; $1.7 Million Dollars for the Martinez Family; $1 Million Dollars for Ms. Davis and $500,000.00 for Alison.
Please read how we recovered $250k for Tracy after the Daly City police determined that she was 100% at fault for dashing out into traffic. Our immediate investigation and top Accident Reconstruction Expert proved the police wrong!
bus accidents
Our expertise in bus accidents led to a record $5 million dollar settlement in Ponce v. AC Transit; a $1.85m settlement in White v. Super Sightseeing and a $300k recovery in Tate v. AC Transit.
Our firm was even hired to represent a homeowner's insurance company when an AC Transit bus lost control and crashed into a house. We recovered the entire Insurance Loss down to the penny! This was the one and only time we ever represented an insurance company, and we agreed to do so only because we were suing another insurance company.
TRUCK Accidents
Truck accident cases are very complex because they involve unique situations not seen in regular auto cases. Your attorney needs to be experienced in all the trucking regulations and be knowledgeable about "black box" data recording devices that are crucial pieces of evidence in commercial truck cases.
Our success in cases involing commercial trucks include:
$1 Million Dollars for Lisa. $750,000 for Jonathan; $630,000 for John Doe. We also recovered $450,000 for a big rig driver who was injured while loading a trailer.
And after a two week jury trial in San Francisco, we obtained a recovery of $373,000 from a trucking company in the case of
Benediktsson v. European Van Lines, Inc.
MOTORCYCLE & BICYCLE
Motorcycle and Bicycle cases have a lot in common. Visibility studies have shown that motorists have a difficult time seeing motorcycles and bicycles. Plus, data has shown many jurors are biased against motorcyclists and bicyclists and that must be overcome.
We represented the family of Mr. Lockett who was killed by a careless driver while riding a motorcycle. A $5 Million Dollar verdict was obtained in Lockett v. Budget.
We also recovered $1.25 Million Dollars for Mr. Cruz who was on his motorcycle when he was struck by a car; and $750,000 for a motorcyclist in the case of Jonathan v. Doe Companies.
We recovered
$100,000 for Manuel who was hit by a car while riding his
bike, and
$100,000 for Girmai who was riding his
bike when hit by a car.
highway Accidents
Highway accidents pose unique problems for attorneys because investigating a busy highway and taking measurements can be extremely difficult. Plus, unless our expert gets to the scene right away the crucial markings needed to determine speed, area of impact are often altered or erased by heavy traffic. Highway accidents are also complicated by involving multiple vehicles travelling at very high speeds.
Our firm has had tremendous success in many complicated highway accident cases involving multiple defendants including a $6 Million Dollar recovery in
Lisa v. State of California; a $630,000 recovery for
John Doe
and a $250,000 recovery in
Savage v. Friendly Cab.

Our office has helped many clients who were involved in accidents involving Lyft or Uber drivers, and also Lyft and Uber drivers injured by other careless drivers.
Lyft and Uber drivers have their own unique insurance coverages provided by the company that your attorney must be aware of.
