Skilled Los Angeles Attorneys Advocating For Victims Of Taxi Cab Accidents
Last updated on February 14, 2025
Taxis are a common way to get around Los Angeles County. Whether you need a ride to or from the airport or around town while visiting, taxis can help you get where you need to go. Even though taxi cab drivers spend a lot of time driving as their profession, they can still make mistakes and can get into serious accidents – often, with passengers in the taxi.
If you suffered injuries in a crash — as a taxi passenger or in a collision with a taxi — contact a taxi cab accident lawyer in Los Angeles as soon as possible. Jalilvand Law is here to help. We recognize the difficult situation our clients are in after a serious accident, and we are here to keep things simple while seeking a swift resolution for them.
Determining Liability For Taxi Accidents And Injuries
Because taxi drivers are so accustomed to driving through Los Angeles, they can become overly confident and engage in risky driving behaviors. Such behaviors may include:
- Texting and driving
- Talking on the phone
- Aggressive driving
- Weaving in and out of traffic
- Fatigued driving
- Impaired driving
Determining who was responsible for your accident is necessary to ensure you file the right insurance claims. If a taxi driver was at fault, you and your Los Angeles taxi cab accident lawyer may be able to file a claim with the driver’s personal insurance policy. However, in some situations, the driver may also be considered an employee of the taxi company, which means the company may then be held strictly liable for the negligence of the driver. This is an important determination, as it may increase the amount of coverage available to cover your extensive losses.
