Car Accident Attorneys In El Segundo

Bordered by the Pacific Ocean to the west, Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) to the north, and the Chevron refinery to the south, the city of El Segundo is somewhat isolated from the surrounding South Bay area of Los Angeles. The roughly 17,000 people who live there enjoy the city’s quaint, beach town feel while remaining surrounded by industry on all sides.

While El Segundo is a fairly small city—roughly 11 square miles—heavy traffic through the area during rush hour leads to a significant amount of car accidents. In 2018, there were 102 traffic accidents in El Segundo resulting in pain or injuries. Six of these caused severe injuries, and one led to a person’s death.

A Track Record You Can Trust

When someone you love has been badly injured in an accident, hiring a car accident attorney is not a task you take lightly. You’ll need an attorney you can trust to get the result you need—a firm that practices what it preaches.

At PARRIS Law Firm, we let our results for our clients speak for themselves. Here are some of our clients’ stories.

  • One of our clients was badly injured when a distracted driver ran a stop sign and T-boned his truck, causing it to flip over multiple times. Despite our client’s horrific situation, the at-fault driver’s insurance company refused to cooperate with our investigation. The judge reprimanded the defense counsel multiple times for failing to turn over evidence, which revealed the at-fault driver was on her cell phone when the crash occurred. Though the road to his recovery was not easy, PARRIS fought for him every step of the way, eventually securing a $120 million jury verdict on his behalf.
  • Another PARRIS client, a CHP officer, was riding his motorcycle on duty when a distracted driver rear-ended him, ejecting him from his motorcycle. His subsequent injuries changed the course of his career and caused great pain for him and his family. After a significant legal battle and lengthy trial, the jury awarded our client and his family an incredible $49.6 million verdict.
  • Three family members were driving in Palmdale, CA when a drunk driver slammed into their car. Though all three occupants were injured, the at-fault driver’s insurance company failed to offer the policy limit amount to the plaintiffs in a reasonable time. The case made it all the way to trial, where the PARRIS team secured a $21 million verdict on their behalf.
  • One PARRIS client, an 11-year-old girl, was tragically struck by a car while crossing the street in the desert. There were no stop signs, traffic signals, or crosswalks for several miles leading up to the intersection where the accident occurred, forcing her to cross six lanes of traffic without any traffic controls. The accident put our client in the hospital for five months after she suffered a severe brain injury, a punctured lung, and multiple fractures. After battling with the at-fault driver’s insurance company, PARRIS attorneys secured a $14.8 million settlement on her behalf.

 

Each of these preventable accidents brought unspeakable tragedy to our clients and their families. At PARRIS, we’re committed to restoring justice and balance in our clients’ lives by fighting for the compensation they deserve.

Let us fight for you, too. Speak to our legal team about your case.
