T-bone collisions – The T-bone accident involves one motor vehicle striking the side of another vehicle, and the point of impact can also determine injury severity.
Head-on collisions – Any head-on collision will involve two motor vehicles colliding head-on, and injuries are frequently serious in most cases.

Causes of Roseville Car Accidents

Car crashes in Roseville occur for a variety of possible reasons. Under the guidance of Arash Khorsandi, Esq., our Roseville auto accident lawyers at Arash Law will know how to completely evaluate all of the circumstances surrounding an accident to determine whether your case involves one of the following common causes of motor vehicle accidents:

Driver Error – Many drivers in Roseville commit certain negligent acts, such as texting while driving, DUI, or reckless driving. Drivers who cause accidents are typically liable for damages in these cases.
Defective Equipment – People can cause accidents when their motor vehicle does not perform as it is supposed to in certain situations. Mechanical failures, such as blown tires or brake failure can lead to a possible claim against a parts manufacturer or repair company in some cases.
Road Conditions – In some cases, it may be possible that a governmental entity is to blame for an accident for not creating a safe roadway. Dangerous road conditions like excessive potholes can make a government accountable.
Pedestrian or Bicyclist Error – There are certain situations in which a negligent bicyclist or pedestrian is to blame for causing an accident, and these situations can be very difficult for people to handle.

Possible Responsible Parties for Car Accidents

Determining liability for a car accident is not always easy, as it may be possible that multiple other parties share blame for a crash. While one driver can have all of the blame put directly on them, there are many other cases in which liability ends up being shared between drivers.

Common liable parties in the cases our Roseville auto accident lawyers handle include:

The at-fault driver
A driver’s employer when an accident occurred while a driver was on the job
Manufacturers of defective products contributing to an accident
The municipality where an accident occurred

Kinds of Auto Accident Injuries

All people involved in car accidents in Roseville need to be sure to seek medical attention as soon as possible because many severe injuries can involve delayed symptoms. You do not want to wait and run the risk of a doctor diagnosing you with an injury several days or weeks after your accident because it will only cause problems with an insurance company.

The simple truth of the matter is that all car crashes have the potential to cause serious injuries to all people involved, even in minor collisions. Some of the types of injuries Roseville auto accident lawyers at Arash Law see most frequently and help people recover compensation for include but are not limited to:

Bone Fractures
Bone Dislocations
Severe Puncture Wounds or Lacerations
Road Rash
Traumatic Brain Injuries
Concussions
Whiplash
Spinal Cord Trauma
Significant Bruising
Internal Bleeding

Arash Law, spearheaded by Arash Khorsandi, Esq., understands that physical injuries are, in reality, only one part of a much bigger picture. Our Roseville auto accident lawyers know that people who suffer severe injuries are going to be dealing with multiple medical checkups to follow up on their care while dealing with many other psychological and emotional harms caused by these accidents.

We will help people pursue adequate compensation that can cover the costs of dealing with their injuries. Arash Law’s Roseville auto accident lawyers regularly help people all over California recover as much compensation as possible for their car accident cases.

Possible Damages in a Personal Injury Case

The money that people seek after a car accident is better known as damages, and California allows every single person involved in a car accident to seek damages for their case. The one catch to the California system is that a person can have their damages reduced by their share of negligence in connection with an accident, meaning a person who is awarded $100,000 for an automobile accident they were found to be 60 percent responsible for will have their award reduced by $60,000 and ultimately receive $40,000.

Our Roseville auto accident lawyers at Arash Law, managed by Arash Khorsandi, Esq., typically help people recover all of the different damages they are entitled to, and the three most common kinds of damages in car accident cases often include:

Medical Bills – According to the National Safety Council (NSC), calculable costs of motor-vehicle crashes by injury severity were $1,778,000 for death, $155,000 for a disabling injury, $40,000 for an evident injury, $24,000 for a possible injury, $6,700 when no injury is observed, and $5,700 for property damage only. Average comprehensive costs by injury severity were $12,474,000 for death, $1,016,000 for a disabling injury, $221,000 for an evident injury, $120,000 for a possible injury, and $17,000 when no injury is observed.
Lost Income – People can be entitled to recover all compensation they lose from an employer because of their inability to return to work after a car accident. It is important to note that a liable party may have to pay lost income even when a person has paid sick time or vacation time to cover their losses. These claims can also involve lost earning capacity claims if a person cannot make the same amount of money they were making before an accident.
Pain and Suffering – Pain and suffering is the most common kind of non-economic damage awarded in many car accident cases because virtually every single car crash will involve a certain degree of pain and suffering. Pain and suffering can be calculated through a multiplier method, under which all damages in a case are multiplied by a figure, or a per diem method that allocates a certain amount for every day a person is in recovery.

Are Punitive Damages Possible?

California Civil Code 3294 establishes that a person can be eligible for punitive damages when they prove by clear and convincing evidence that a defendant was guilty of oppression, fraud, or malice. Malice is defined as conduct that is intended by a defendant to cause injury to a plaintiff or despicable conduct that is carried on by a defendant with a willful and conscious disregard for the rights or safety of others.

Oppression means despicable conduct that subjects a person to cruel and unjust hardship in conscious disregard of that person’s rights. Lastly, Fraud means an intentional misrepresentation, deceit, or concealment of a material fact known to the defendant with the intention on the part of the defendant of thereby depriving a person of property or legal rights or otherwise causing injury.

Punitive damages are much more difficult to recover in California because they are not intended to compensate people. The purpose of punitive damages is to punish a party for abhorrent conduct. Punitive damages will be much more common in automobile accidents involving drunk or drugged driving. Our Roseville auto accident lawyers will help you understand the legal process and maximaze the compensation you will receive.

How Much Liability Insurance Does a Person Need in California?

As the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) notes, evidence of car insurance must be in a person’s motor vehicle at all times and be provided when it is requested by law enforcement, a person is renewing their vehicle registration, or a motor vehicle is involved in a traffic collision. Acceptable forms of insurance in California include a motor vehicle liability insurance policy, a cash deposit of $35,000 with the DMV, a DMV-issued self-insurance certificate, or a surety bond for $35,000 from a company licensed to do business in California.

The minimum liability insurance requirements under California Insurance Code § 11580.1b include the following:

$15,000 for injury or death to one perso
$30,000 for injury or death to more than one person

$5,000 for property damage

When the DMV does not receive proof of insurance for a vehicle, it will suspend the vehicle’s registration, and the vehicle cannot be operated or parked on public roadways until proof of insurance is submitted. California’s Low-Cost Automobile Insurance Program (CLCA) exists pursuant to California Insurance Code § 11629.7 to provide income-eligible people with liability insurance protection at affordable rates and meet California’s financial responsibility laws.

Why Is It Important to Have Higher Liability Insurance Limits?

People should not play it too safe when it comes to automobile insurance because the cost of doubling your policy protection does not necessarily mean you will have to pay twice the cost. Under the Protect California Drivers Act that Governor Gavin Newsom signed into law in 2022, California Vehicle Code 16056 is amended effective January 1, 2025, such that minimum liability coverage required under the law increases to the following amounts:

$30,000 for injury or death to one person
$60,000 for injury or death to more than one person

$15,000 for property damage

These limits will be in effect until January 1, 2035, when the mandatory minimum liability will increase to:

$50,000 for injury or death to one person
$100,000 for injury or death to more than one person

$25,000 for property damage

How Much Automobile Insurance Coverage Should a Person Have?

Our Roseville auto accident lawyers at Arash Law generally recommends that people carry at least $100,000 in uninsured (UM) and underinsured (UIM) motorist protection. These are two common policies that many people do not learn more about until after an accident with an uninsured or underinsured driver, but both policies can be beneficial for the many situations in which another driver is not properly insured.

Both UM and UIM coverage will be optional, but people should certainly take advantage of these policies. It is important to remember that an insurance company only pays up to the limits of a given policy, and they do not pay anything when there is not an appropriate policy in place.

How Does the California Fault Law Work?

While some states have different rules relating to fault for motor vehicle accidents, California is among the majority of states that have a no-fault policy. A no-fault policy means that the person who is responsible for causing a motor vehicle accident also becomes liable for all damages stemming from the crash.

Under this system, all drivers involved in a car accident caused by one driver’s negligence will file claims with the negligent driver’s insurance company. Timing can be critical in these cases because insurance limits can be hit very quickly.

Insurance policies may differ depending on the party you are filing an action against, as a driver’s employer, a defective part manufacturer, or a road owner can have a different insurance company. The Roseville auto accident lawyers at Arash Law, headed by Arash Khorsandi, Esq., can investigate your accident for causation and help you bring the right claim against the at-fault party.

What You Should Do After a Car Accident?

When any person is involved in an automobile accident in Roseville, there will be several important steps for them to take, including contacting experienced Roseville auto accident lawyers. All people should try to make sure they do all of the following after any crash:

Call the police – The DMV states that people should immediately report collisions to the local police or California Highway Patrol (CHP). An accident report will need to be completed within 24 hours if a crash involves injury or death. A person must also report a collision by completing a Report of Traffic Accident Occurring in California (SR 1) to the DMV within 10 days when there is over $1,000 in damage to the property of any person or person suffers an injury or is killed.
Go to a doctor – All people need to seek medical attention after a car accident, regardless of whether they believe they suffered an injury. Many injuries will involve delayed symptoms, and you do not want to risk seeing a physician several days or weeks after an accident originally occurred. As soon as a person receives medical attention, they will create an important medical record connecting their injuries to their accident.
Preserve all available evidence – While the police report will certainly be important to your case, you can also do some things to help collect other forms of evidence. Use the camera on your cell phone to take photographs or videos of your crash scene, being sure to get shots from different angles and distances. Also, look for any potential witnesses to your accident and seek their contact information.
Call an attorney – Do not wait too long to get in touch with skilled Roseville auto accident lawyers because you are only going to have a limited amount of time to take appropriate legal action. People who delay can run the risk of a lawyer being unable to accept the case because of a lack of time to perform an investigation. The sooner you get legal help in your case, the sooner you can start getting answers to your legal questions.
Contact your insurer – Even when another driver is at fault for a crash, you will still need to notify your own insurance company about the accident. These conversations should not be difficult or contentious, so you should feel free to report your accident to your insurer without too much concern.
Continue recommended medical treatment – People should always adhere to whatever treatment guidelines their medical care providers place on them. It is important to comply with all guidelines because deviations may be counted against people, and insurance companies may decline to compensate people who do not fulfill their treatment obligations.
