Rear-End Collisions Attorney in Los Angeles, California

One vehicle crashing into another from behind is one of the most common types of car accidents. While most of these collisions are minor fender-benders that lead to damage to the vehicle’s frame, some can be more serious and result in severe consequences and life-changing injuries.  

As a rear-end collision attorney in Los Angeles, California, I know that even if a traffic accident seems relatively minor, it can still lead to substantial medical bills, costly vehicle repairs, and other losses.

At Antaramian Law, APC, I am dedicated to protecting the rights of those involved in rear-end crashes in Los Angeles and other parts of California, including Riverside County, Orange County, Kern County, San Bernardino County, and Ventura County. Reach out today to schedule a free consultation.  

What Is Considered a Rear-End Collision?

Rear-end collisions occur when one vehicle crashes into the back of another. These incidents are among the most common types of car accidents. A study by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) showed that these collisions account for nearly 30% of all traffic accidents on U.S. roads.  

The Dynamics of Rear-End Collisions

Rear-end crashes generally involve a chain reaction where the force of impact travels through the vehicles involved. This force can cause significant damage to both cars and severe injuries to vehicle occupants.

When handling these cases, I focus on the dynamics to establish the extent of damage and the likely cause. Knowing how these accidents unfold allows me to help my clients build a stronger case for pursuing damages and compensation.

Possible Causes of Rear-End Collisions

Rear-end collisions can happen for various reasons. Some of the most common causes include:

  • Distracted driving 

  • Speeding 

  • Tailgating 

  • Sudden stops 

  • Poor weather conditions 

  • Driver fatigue 

  • Mechanical failure 

These factors often interplay, making it essential to dig deep into the specifics of each incident to determine how the crash occurred and who could be held liable.  

Common Types of Injuries in Rear-End Collisions

Injuries from rear-end collisions can range from minor to severe. Some of the most common include: 

  • Whiplash 

  • Back injuries 

  • Head injuries 

  • Broken bones 

  • Bruises and cuts 

  • Soft tissue injuries 

Understanding the types of injuries involved allows me to help my clients provide the necessary medical evidence to support their claim for compensation. Without understanding the nature and severity of your injuries, you risk settling your claim for less than it might be worth.  

Determining Fault and Negligence in Rear-End Collisions in California

Determining fault in rear-end collisions is typically more straightforward than in other types of crashes – the driver who hit the other vehicle from behind is usually at fault. However, California's comparative negligence law (Civil Code § 1431.2) can complicate matters.

Under this law, your compensation can be reduced in proportion to your degree of fault. However, even if you share some responsibility for the accident, you may still be entitled to compensation. My role is to analyze the circumstances meticulously and advocate for your rightful claims under California law.
