Quickly changing weather and heavy rainfalls both catch the attention of our San Francisco inclement weather collision law firm. After all, an inattentive driver is dangerous at any time, but the likelihood of that driver causing injury or death rises dramatically during bad weather. This leads to an increased risk…
In this blog, we have examined the relationship between age and accident rates, with a focus on teens and seniors. Our Santa Rosa car accident law firm has noticed another trend involving age: a disproportionate number of crashes caused by twenty-something drivers. While this group has had time to master…
While driving safety is without question a multi-faceted affair, there is often one “trendy” topic capturing headlines. The importance of seatbelts and the danger of drinking and driving are two topics that led safety discussions for a period before becoming a given, accepted, almost assumed part of safe driving.

As a Sacramento injury lawyer, Attorney Greg Brod knows that every car accident has its own unique story. Some stories are particularly upsetting, including those cases that include a hit-and-run driver. Often the police are able to identify the driver and each has his or her own “excuse” for leaving…
