Our Fontana personal injury law firm represents accident victims in motor vehicle and traffic collision cases throughout the Inland Empire. Fontana is a major hub in the San Bernardino County region, positioned along the I-10 and I-15 interchange — one of Southern California's busiest trucking corridors. Our personal injury lawyers fight for maximum compensation.
Car accidents are the most common personal injury claims our Fontana lawyers handle. Auto accidents on the I-10 and I-15 corridors through Fontana involve rear-end collisions, reckless driving, and distracted driving from cell phone use. Our car accident attorneys pursue full compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. We handle every auto accident insurance claim and lawsuit from investigation through settlement or trial. Call (909) 915-0181 after any car accident in Fontana.
Fontana sits along one of Southern California's busiest trucking corridors. Truck accidents involving commercial vehicles and 18-wheelers cause catastrophic injuries due to the massive size and weight of these motor vehicles. Our personal injury lawyers investigate Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration violations, truck driver fatigue, drowsy driving, commercial vehicle hours-of-service violations, and drowsy driving behind the wheel of heavy trucks, and electronic logging device data. Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration regulations require trucking companies to maintain strict safety records and commercial vehicle maintenance logs. When a truck driver or trucking company violates these federal standards, vicarious liability may hold the employer responsible for the truck driver's negligence. Our attorneys retain expert witness testimony and accident reconstruction specialists to build the strongest case. Call our Fontana truck accident lawyer at (909) 915-0181.
Motorcycle accidents in Fontana often result in severe injuries — spinal cord damage, traumatic brain injury, road rash, and broken bones — because motorcycle riders lack the structural protection of a motor vehicle. Even with a helmet, motorcycle accident victims face life-altering consequences. Our motorcycle accident attorneys represent riders injured by negligent drivers who fail to check blind spots, make unsafe left turns, or violate lane-splitting laws. Insurance companies often try to assign unfair fault to motorcycle riders. Our personal injury lawyer fights this bias using accident reconstruction evidence and medical records to protect your right to full compensation after a motorcycle accident.
When a traffic collision or negligent act causes the wrongful death of a loved one, surviving family members face devastating grief alongside mounting financial pressure. A wrongful death claim allows spouses, children, and parents to recover damages for funeral expenses, lost financial support, loss of companionship, and emotional suffering. Our Fontana wrongful death attorneys handle wrongful death cases involving drunk driving, truck accidents, and other fatal accidents with compassion and aggressive legal advocacy. In cases involving driving under the influence or extreme recklessness, punitive damages under Civil Code §3294 may be available in wrongful death cases. The statute of limitations for a wrongful death claim in California is two years from the date of death. Call (909) 915-0181 for a free wrongful death case evaluation.
Pedestrian accidents and bicycle accidents in Fontana result in catastrophic injuries because these vulnerable road users have no protection against a motor vehicle at speed. Our personal injury attorneys represent injured pedestrians and bicycle riders against negligent drivers, including cases involving drunk driving, reckless driving, and failure to yield at crosswalks. We pursue the defendant for full damages including medical bills and pain and suffering.
California imposes strict liability on dog owners under Civil Code §3342. If a dog bite causes injury in Fontana, the owner is liable for your medical bills, pain and suffering, and lost wages regardless of the animal's prior behavior. Our personal injury lawyer handles dog bite cases throughout Fontana and San Bernardino County. Call (909) 915-0181.

Call (909) 915-0181 — Free ConsultationUnder California's pure comparative negligence law, you can still recover damages even if you were partially at fault for the accident. If you were 30% at fault in a motor vehicle collision and the defendant was 70% at fault, you recover 70% of your total damages. Insurance companies aggressively try to assign more fault to the injured plaintiff to reduce their payout under this comparative negligence rule.
Our Fontana personal injury attorneys challenge inflated fault assessments using evidence — accident reconstruction, medical records, expert witness testimony, and traffic camera footage — to prove the defendant breached their duty of care. Whether the accident involved reckless driving, drunk driving, or distracted driving, we fight to minimize your fault percentage and maximize your compensation. Call our Fontana personal injury lawyer at (909) 915-0181 to discuss how comparative negligence may affect your personal injury claim.

We work on a contingency fee basis. You pay nothing upfront, and we only get paid if we recover compensation for your injuries. Our fees typically range from 25% to 40% of your settlement or verdict, depending on case complexity. There are no hidden costs or surprise bills.
Most personal injury lawsuits have a 2-year statute of limitations from the injury date. Wrongful death cases also have 2 years from the date of death. DUI cases and driving under the influence accidents have the same deadline. Missing this deadline means you lose your right to sue. Contact us immediately.
Call 911 if anyone is injured. Get the other driver's contact and insurance information. Take photos of vehicle damage, the accident scene, and visible injuries. Get witness contact information. Seek medical attention promptly, even for minor injuries. The other driver has a duty of care to operate safely. Do not admit fault. Contact our office for free legal guidance before speaking with insurance adjusters.
Case value depends on injury severity, medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and liability strength. Minor accidents might settle for a few thousand dollars; catastrophic injuries can recover hundreds of thousands. We review your medical records, wage loss, and evidence to calculate fair compensation. Most cases settle within 6-18 months.
Our Fontana personal injury law firm handles car accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle accidents, pedestrian accidents, bicycle accidents, wrongful death claims, dog bite injuries, traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, and other catastrophic injury cases. We focus on vehicle-related and catastrophic injuries throughout Fontana and the Inland Empire. If your case involves a slip-and-fall, defective product, or workplace injury, we will connect you with trusted counsel who specializes in those areas. Call (909) 915-0181 for a free consultation.
Most personal injury cases settle through negotiation without going to trial — approximately 90-95% of personal injury claims are resolved through settlement. However, if the insurance company refuses fair compensation, our personal injury lawyers are fully prepared to take your lawsuit to trial at the San Bernardino County Superior Court. Our trial-ready reputation often results in higher settlement offers because insurance carriers know we will not accept lowball amounts.
If the at-fault driver is uninsured or underinsured, you may still recover compensation through your own uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage under your insurance policy. California law requires insurance companies to offer UM/UIM coverage. Our personal injury attorneys investigate every avenue of recovery, including the defendant's personal assets, employer liability if the driver was working, and other potentially liable parties. Call (909) 915-0181 for a free consultation about your options.
A wrongful death claim allows surviving family members to recover damages when a loved one dies due to another person's negligence in a traffic collision or other accident. Under California law (CCP §377.60), spouses, domestic partners, and children of the deceased may file a wrongful death claim. Damages in wrongful death cases cover funeral and burial expenses, loss of financial support, loss of companionship and guidance, and emotional distress. In drunk driving wrongful death cases, punitive damages may also be available. The statute of limitations for a wrongful death claim is two years from the date of death. Call our Fontana wrongful death attorney at (909) 915-0181.
California's pure comparative negligence rule allows you to recover damages even if partially at fault. If you were 30% at fault and the defendant 70% at fault, you recover 70% of total damages.
