From rear-end collisions to multi-vehicle pileups, car accidents are the most common type of case we handle. These crashes often involve disputes over fault, insurance company pushback, and hidden injuries that appear days later. Our Santa Ana car accident lawyers fight to ensure you receive full compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Pedestrians and cyclists are the most vulnerable on the road, often suffering severe injuries when struck by vehicles. Police reports frequently place blame on pedestrians or cyclists, but those opinions aren’t admissible in court. With expert reconstruction and decades of experience, we’ve proven time and again that negligent drivers are at fault.
Truck accidents are among the most devastating and complex cases. They often involve catastrophic injuries, multiple liable parties, and overlapping federal and state regulations. At Traut Firm, we have the specialized knowledge, resources, and trial experience to take on trucking companies and secure justice for victims.
Nearly one in three California drivers is either uninsured or underinsured. If you’re hit by one of them or involved in a hit-and-run, your UM/UIM coverage may be your only source of recovery. Our attorneys have successfully handled hundreds of UM/UIM claims, forcing insurers to honor their obligations and pay what’s fair.
With Uber and Lyft now a staple of transportation, accidents involving rideshare drivers are increasingly common. Liability depends on whether the driver was logged into the app, waiting for a ride, or transporting a passenger, each with different insurance coverage. We know how to navigate these complexities.
Motorcyclists face unique risks on the road, and when drivers fail to watch for them, the consequences can be devastating. Without the protection of a vehicle frame, riders are far more likely to suffer catastrophic injuries such as traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, or fractures. At Traut Firm, our Santa Ana motorcycle accident lawyers fight aggressively to hold negligent drivers accountable and recover compensation for medical care, lost income, and long-term needs.
With the growing popularity of e-bikes in Orange County, collisions involving cars, trucks, and even pedestrians are on the rise. E-bike accidents often result in serious injuries due to higher speeds and limited rider protection. Our experienced attorneys understand the complexities of California’s e-bike laws and help injured riders pursue compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and the impact on quality of life.
No matter what type of accident you’ve been involved in, car, truck, pedestrian, bike, rideshare, or uninsured motorist, the experienced attorneys at Traut Firm are here to fight for you.
