Why Burbank pedestrian accidents cases are different
Burbank's studio traffic, Hollywood Burbank Airport, and the 5/134 interchange combine to produce thousands of injury collisions a year in just a few square miles.
Local context we account for
- Studio-area commuter crashes near Warner Bros, Disney, and Universal
- Airport-pickup and rideshare incidents at Hollywood Burbank Airport
- 5/134 interchange and Olive Avenue rear-end collisions
- Cases filed at Burbank Courthouse or Pasadena Courthouse depending on venue
California law that governs your claim
- Filing deadline. Two years from the date of injury under Code of Civil Procedure §335.1. Claims against a city, county, Caltrans, or other public entity require a six-month government claim under §911.2.
- Fault rule. California is a pure comparative negligence state. Even at significant fault, an injured person can still recover — the award is reduced by their share of responsibility.
- Damages. Recovery includes past and future medical care, lost income and earning capacity, property damage, and pain and suffering.
