Fresno Auto Accidents Attorney
Fresno Car Accident
As California’s population continues to grow, traffic volume is steadily increasing throughout the state. An increase in motor vehicle traffic usually means an increase in the number of auto accidents. According to the California Highway Patrol (CHP), at least a thousand auto accidents occur in California on a daily basis, and although vehicle occupant injuries and deaths have decreased in recent years, preventable crashes still occur.
The Fresno traffic accident attorneys at Estey Bomberger give each and every case the attention it deserves to ensure a high settlement is obtained. Each case is approached as a team, with every auto collision attorney on our team contributing to the preparation of a case. Because we approach each case as a team and with a clear vision, we are able to present powerful cases to insurance companies, opposing lawyers, and if a fair settlement cannot be negotiated, to a judge and jury. The success we have had in Fresno auto accident cases is unmatched by any other personal injury law firm in the state (see case results). Millions of dollars have been recovered for our clients’ damages, including health care costs, lost wages, disfigurement, shortened life expectancy, physical pain and emotional anguish.
