Local Auto Accident Attorneys
-Experienced Car Accident Lawyers-
With over 70% of the U.S. population licensed to drive, a car accident is almost inevitable in our lifetime. All parties involved in an accident, as well as their families, can be deeply affected by an injury. In Orange County and Los Angeles vehicle collisions are also very common due to the high concentration of people, access to automobiles, gridlock and long commutes. Many accident victims will suffer debilitating injuries that restrict their daily lives, and others will lose their lives. A majority of these people will require ongoing therapy and long-term care. With serious injuries, victims lose essential income from missed work and family responsibilities may become stressed.
If you or a loved one has been involved in a vehicle collision, the experienced car accident lawyers of Ledger Law can help. Our team strives to help take some of the pressure off you and your family, which allows you to concentrate on recovery. At Ledger Law & Associates our lawyers aim to get you the financial compensation you deserve and to help you through the legal process as simply as possible. While enduring a car accident can be mentally and physically excruciating, the resulting events unrelated to the immediate harm caused by the accident can add even more physical and economic hardships onto both parties’ recovery efforts. Ideally, if the accident was not your fault, you should take action to settle your accident claims fairly, accurately, and quickly. Oftentimes insurance companies will try to settle a victim’s car accident claims to the insurance companies’ advantage. If you were unfortunately at fault in a car accident, you should let an experienced personal injury law firm guide you through the legal process. You should protect yourself against car accident claims that are potentially unfair, and you should settle such claims in a proper and timely fashion. Regardless of who is at fault, both parties involved in vehicle collisions must deal with the legal issues that will arise from the accident. Unfamiliarity with personal injury laws can place both parties at undeserved disadvantages and hinder their rights to a fair resolution.
It is to your best interest to hire a law firm experienced in handling traffic accident cases to protect you from unknown legal issues that might hinder your recovery effort. Lessen the consequences of a car accident’s long-term physical and economic ramifications by seeking help from the experienced personal injury lawyers at Ledger Law & Associates. We make sure your rights are protected.
Types of Collisions
A low speed impact crash occurs at a speed of 10 miles an hour or less. While these tend to be less destructive, bodily injury can and does occur even at slow speeds.
A side impact collision occurs when one car’s front collides with another’s side. A driver or passenger, depending on which side is hit, can suffer serious injury or death from a devastating side impact collision. With the side movement, there is little to block the thrown weight, and severe brain, neck, and back injuries are common. Dislocations, broken bones, bruising and fractures are also probable in side impact accidents.
A frontal collision, perhaps the most serious type, results when two cars hit each other head-on. Depending on the speed and the size of the vehicles, frontal collisions can cause numerous severe and fatal injuries, including damaging internal injuries.
Insurance companies spend much time and money preventing high dollar payouts. Their representatives might attempt to pay out as little as possible, despite the fact that it may be your right to collect more. Most accident victims are not knowledgeable about the law, and may be unsure about how to negotiate with the insurance company. That’s where The Ledger Law Firm comes in.

Our experienced car accident lawyers represent clients suffering from major injuries and know how to negotiate fair settlements.
