Practice Areas

Car Accidents

We apply a trial-ready philosophy to every car accident claim, navigating the complexities of the California Vehicle Code to hold negligent drivers accountable. By preserving evidence immediately after a crash, we protect your right to maximum compensation for medical bills and lost wages.

Trucking Accidents

Trucking litigation requires expertise in FMCSA “Hours of Service” (HOS) violations and “Black Box” (EDR) data recovery. We perform immediate investigations into trucking company logs and maintenance records to prove liability in catastrophic commercial collisions.

Motorcycle Accidents

California’s lane-splitting laws (AB 51) and helmet requirements are often used by insurance companies to devalue claims. We counter this bias with aggressive advocacy, focusing on the technical mechanics of the crash and the specific rights of San Diego riders.

Rideshare:
(Uber/Lyft) Accidents

Rideshare claims are governed by the complex “Three-Period” insurance coverage model. Whether you were an injured passenger, pedestrian, or third-party driver, we navigate these commercial policy layers to secure the recovery you deserve.

Wrongful Death

Litigating E-bike accidents requires understanding the legal distinctions between Class 1, 2, and 3 classifications. We handle claims involving throttle malfunctions, battery fires, and sidewalk collisions involving Bird or Lime scooters.

Catastrophic Injuries

Claims against the San Diego Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) or the North County Transit District (NCTD) involve “Common Carrier” duty-of-care standards. We navigate the strict 6-month government claim deadlines required to sue transit agencies.

Hit-and-Run Accidents

Medical Malpractice

We navigate the technical complexities of MICRA and California’s medical negligence statutes to secure justice for patients. Our firm prioritizes the long-term recovery and financial security of families, holding healthcare providers accountable for professional errors that result in permanent disability or wrongful death.

Workplace & Industrial Accidents

Boating accidents in Mission Bay or San Diego Harbor involve a specialized intersection of maritime law and state negligence. We investigate operator intoxication, equipment failure, and navigational errors to protect injured passengers.

Injuries (TBI & Spine)

High-stakes claims for Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) and spinal damage require a lawyer who understands the lifetime cost of care. We prepare these cases for trial from day one to ensure insurance companies acknowledge future medical and vocational needs.

DUI & Impaired Driving Accidents

We pursue maximum damages, including potential punitive awards, against drunk or drug-impaired drivers. Our firm monitors criminal proceedings to strengthen your civil case for negligence and reckless disregard for safety.

Delivery Van & Fleet Accidents

Collisions involving Amazon, FedEx, or UPS drivers involve “Last-Mile” delivery liability and vicarious liability for fleet owners. We investigate negligent hiring and improper cargo loading that often leads to rollover or jackknife accidents.

T-Bone & Intersection Crashes

Proving fault in intersection accidents requires expert analysis of red-light footage and “failure to yield” violations. We focus on the physics of side-impact collisions to demonstrate the severity of occupant injuries.

Rear-End Collisions

While often viewed as “simple” claims, whiplash and soft-tissue injuries can have life-altering consequences. We combat “low-impact” defenses used by insurance adjusters to ensure your medical treatment is fully covered.

Lane-Splitting & Lane-Sharing

We represent motorcyclists in lane-sharing disputes, utilizing AB 51 compliance to prove that the rider was operating safely within the law. We investigate merging vehicle negligence that often causes these high-speed collisions.

Premises Liability (Slip & Fall)

Property owners have a duty to maintain safe conditions. We litigate claims involving slip and fall hazards, negligent security, and dangerous conditions in commercial or municipal San Diego properties.

Construction Site Accidents

Injuries on construction sites often involve multiple liable parties, from subcontractors to equipment manufacturers. We investigate OSHA violations and safety failure to secure compensation beyond traditional workers’ comp.

Product Liability (Defective Vehicles)

When a defective airbag, brake system, or tire blowout causes an injury, we hold the manufacturer accountable. We focus on the strict liability standards that govern defective products and mechanical failures.

Rideshare Assault & Misconduct

We represent victims of sexual assault or physical misconduct involving Uber and Lyft drivers. These cases require a specialized focus on negligent hiring, driver vetting processes, and the specific safety protocols rideshare companies fail to enforce.

Soft Tissue Injuries

Soft tissue” doesn’t mean minor. We secure objective proof of neck & spine trauma to neutralize the “low-impact” defense. Trial-ready files for San Diego Superior Court.

Autonomous & Self-Driving Vehicle Testing

As self-driving vehicle testing expands in California, so do unique liability questions. We litigate accidents involving autonomous sensor failures and software glitches, holding tech companies accountable for “beta-testing” on public roads.

E-Bike Battery Fires & Thermal Events

Beyond collisions, E-bike owners face risks from defective lithium-ion batteries. We handle product liability claims involving spontaneous fires and explosions, focusing on manufacturing defects and inadequate safety warnings.

Bird & Lime Scooter Sidewalk Injuries

Electric scooters abandoned on sidewalks create significant trip-and-fall hazards for pedestrians. We hold scooter companies and negligent riders accountable for injuries caused by sidewalk clutter and improper scooter operation.

Government Entity Claims (MTS & City)

Suing the City of San Diego or the State of California involves a strict 6-month statute of limitations. We navigate the “Sovereign Immunity” exceptions and the specific procedural requirements of the California Tort Claims Act.

Uninsured Motorist (UM) “Phantom Vehicle” Claims

If you were forced off the road by a driver who didn’t make contact and fled, we can still recover damages. We specialize in the “Corroborating Evidence” rule in California to secure UM/UIM benefits in no-contact hit-and-runs.

Emotional Distress

Emotional distress is a measurable disruption of your life and well-being. By anchoring your claim in 2026 California standards for non-economic damages, we ensure your settlement reflects the true psychological toll, holding negligent parties accountable for the internal scars they’ve left behind.
