State appeals court ruled that the victims of the farmers markets tragedy in Santa Monica can sue the city of Santa Monica for railing to adequately provide protection to shoppers at the 3rd Street Promenade weekly market.
A Los Angeles Court Superior Judge had previously ruled that the city of Santa Monica had legal immunity from being sued.
The tragic accident left 10 people dead and 63 injured when George Weller, age 86 crashed his car into shoppers and pedestrians on July 16, 2003. His car plowed through wooden sawhorses which were used as barricades. The National Transportation Safety Board found that the sawhorses were inadequate and the city of Santa Monica did not meet the national, state or city guidelines.
Pedestrian accidents remain some of the most deadly accidents in the State. Often times, it is not only the recklessness of the drivers, that caused the accident, but also the failure of the city, county or state to properly and adequately provide protection and safety measures to all pedestrians.
If you or a loved one has been involved in a pedestrian accident, call today for a free consultation of your claim 888.222.8286.
On Friday October 12th, at least five big rigs were involved in a serious accident in Santa Clarita, California just 30 minutes north of downtown Los Angeles. While the cause of the accident is still under investigation, the Associated Press is reporting that several passenger vehicles were involved as well, with at least 3 deaths and 10 injuries. Trucking accidents remain some of the most dangerous accidents throughout California.
The pileup in a freeway tunnel resulted in an explosion which has had the 5 freeway shutdown since the accident.
Firefighters, police and rescue workers were still searching for victims on Sunday morning. Fire investigators said they suspect that two big rigs or tractor trailers crashed and burst into flames in the tunnel. Several passengers traveling in their cars were able to get out of the tunnel without any injuries.
It has been reported that the tunnel where the accident occurred is one of the most dangerous areas of the freeway because of the darkness and curves uncharacteristic of tunnels. Interstate 5 remains closed on Sunday.

Every day, thousands of victims are injured in a truck accident or truck involved accident on the freeways and streets. Los Angeles in particular remains home to the largest seaport (Long Beach) which means there are more trucks on the freeways, highways and streets throughout Southern California transporting goods than most other cities or states.
Accidents involving large trucks result in some of the most horrific injuries. Broken bones, amputations, brain damage and even deaths have resulted from accidents involving large commercial trucks and passenger vehicles.
Since the weight and speeds of trucks triple and quadruple those of the standard vehicles on the freeways, the majority of the damage and force is placed upon the smaller cars and their passengers.
Trucking accidents can often result in reckless truck driving, inattentive drivers, road construction and road hazards, defective brakes or other defective truck parts, tunnel construction, explosions as a result of transporting hazardous materials and other dangerous activities or reckless driving.

Every year, thousands of individuals are hurt or even fatally injured in construction site accidents. While construction companies are responsible for the safety of the workers and the work environment, in certain circumstances, a landowner or occupier may be liable for the dangerous conditions on the premises.
Since construction sites typically involve highly dangerous and potentially hazardous life-threatening conditions, these types of accidents may often result in very serious injuries and even wrongful death. Personal injuries suffered at construction sites can be among the most severe.
Some states have enacted laws that prevent an employee from suing his/her employee as a result of an injury at a construction site. Similar state laws and worker’s compensation laws have also placed limits as to the amount of compensation an employee may recover for injuries resulting from a work site accident. Since worker’s compensation typically does not provide the necessary compensation for personal injuries suffered while at work on a construction site, in order to recover compensation for additional damages such as pain and suffering, it is necessary to find a party other than the employer that was liable for the injuries.
Situations frequently arise where a party other than the employer is to blame for the injuries at the construction site. Construction equipment may be found to have been defective and/or dangerous both in design and manufacturing. While the construction company is responsible for providing a safe work environment, dangerous cranes, falling scaffolds, forklifts, conveyor belts, trucking equipment, drilling cranes, defective rock grinding machines, cement mixer, vehicle-mounted elevating machines, rotating work platforms, sawmills, tractors, welding machinery, chemical and biological materials may be found to have been the cause of the accident and resulting injury.
If you or a loved one has been injured while at work at a construction site and have been seriously injured, call today for a free consultation of your claim. 310.882.6810 or 888.222.8286 - Let our team of experienced trial lawyers help you seek the maximum recovery available.
