Legal Malpractice

Not every lawyer delivers the representation clients deserve. When attorneys fail to meet deadlines, provide inadequate advice, mishandle cases, or create conflicts of interest, the consequences can be severe. At Traut Firm, we are among the few firms in Orange County that specialize in legal malpractice litigation. We hold negligent lawyers accountable, helping clients recover damages for the harm caused.

Vehicle Accidents

From busy freeways to local streets, Orange County sees thousands of serious collisions each year. Our attorneys represent victims of all types of motor vehicle accidents, including:

  • Car Accidents – Fighting for compensation after distracted, drunk, or reckless driving crashes.
  • Motorcycle Accidents – Protecting riders from the unique risks they face on California roads.
  • Truck Accidents – Handling complex claims involving commercial trucks, federal regulations, and catastrophic injuries.
  • Rideshare Accidents – Navigating Uber and Lyft insurance coverage for passengers, pedestrians, and other drivers.
  • Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Claims – Helping victims recover even when the at-fault driver lacks sufficient coverage.

Dangerous Property Conditions

Property owners are legally obligated to maintain a safe environment on their premises. When they fail, people get hurt. Our premises liability attorneys represent victims injured by hazards such as:

  • Slip and fall accidents
  • Defective stairs, steps, and handrails
  • Electrical and gas fires or explosions
  • Dog Bites

These cases often involve complex building codes and expert testimony, and we have the experience to prove liability and get justice for you.

Wrongful Death
