Auto Accident Attorney Los Angeles: Securing Compensation for Negligent Left Turn
November 2023
At Fassonaki Law Firm, P.C., a Los Angeles auto accident law firm, we recently represented a client who was driving in his lane on the road when another car collided with the front-left side of his vehicle while attempting to make a left turn. Our client suffered personal injuries and his vehicle was severely damaged.
Our legal team at Fassonaki Law Firm P.C. investigated the details of the accident and collected all the relevant evidence. In this case, the adverse driver engaged in dangerous and reckless behavior that put others at risk under California law and violated California Vehicle Code § 21801(a).
According to California Vehicle Code § 21801(a) a driver who intends to either turn left or make a legal U-turn must yield to all traffic traveling in the opposite direction and not initiate or continue the turn until such traffic is a safe enough distance away to negotiate the turn.
It was our team's effort and commitment that led us to a great victory, the adverse driver was at fault for the accident under California law and accepted the liability for the loss. Our client was entitled to compensation for his bodily injuries, including economic and non-economic damages.
