The days and months following a car collision are a difficult time. You’re dealing with injuries from the accident. Medication. Rehabilitation. You’re unable to carry out daily tasks and activities. You’re without a car. Most likely you’re unable to work and provide for you and your family. You’re relying more on others to take care of you. Often battling depression. Perhaps even PTSD if you keep replaying the accident over and over in your head. Medical bills pile up. As does the financial strain the longer you’re out of work.
It goes without saying, this is a very challenging time in someone’s life. One that shouldn’t be left in the hands of a claims adjuster at an insurance company.

Woodland Hills Attorneys for DUI Collisions
Were you or someone you love hit by a drunk driver in Woodland Hills? What follows this terrible act of negligence and reckless behavior can be devastating.
About one-third of fatalities on U.S. highways and roads are the result of drunk driving. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs isn’t just illegal, it’s a breach of moral conduct that endangers the lives of others. Someone driving under the influence has difficulty focusing, impaired muscle coordination, mental confusion, a lack of alertness, and a slowed reaction time.
Someone who survives being hit by a drunk driver often has severe injuries to deal with. This includes both physical pain and mental distress or emotional trauma.
A victim of a drunk driving accident can seek financial compensation. Not only can they seek standard compensation – things like medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering – but punitive damages may also be paid out. Jurors and judges can be hard on drunk drivers and compensation in DUI cases can be very significant.
If you’ve been hurt in a car wreck brought on by a drunk driver, contact the Woodland Hills drunk driving accident attorneys at M.R. Parker Law, PC for a free consultation.
WOODLAND HILLS LYFT & UBER CAR ACCIDENT ATTORNEYS
Woodland Hills Rideshare Car Accident Lawyers
If you or a member of your family has been hurt in a car wreck involving an Uber or Lyft driver, you can pursue financial compensation for your medical expenses, ongoing physical therapy, and lost income. The rideshare phenomenon has certainly made going from place to place in Woodland Hills much easier. Drinking and driving has decreased thanks in part to ridesharing's surge in popularity. It's also provided many people with a new source of income in the gig economy of today.
But as the ridesharing industry grows, so do the number of wrecks involving Uber and Lyft drivers. Worse yet, insurance companies often don't know the insured party has been using their vehicle for ridesharing. This means they might be unwilling to fully compensate victims.
Since ridesharing is a relatively new phenomenon, the legal waters when it comes to Lyft and Uber car crashes are still murky.
This is why you’ll need the Woodland Hills Lyft and Uber accident attorneys at M.R. Parker Law, PC in your corner. Uber and Lyft are huge publicly-traded companies pulling in billions of dollars. Unlike a lot of drivers carrying only the minimum-required liability coverage of $15,000 for injury or death on their auto insurance, Uber and Lyft drivers have a $1 million insurance policy. But rideshare companies will look at things like if their driver was or wasn't signed into the app and accepting rides when the collision took place.
Considering the amount of insurance covering Uber and Lyft drivers, anyone injured in a car wreck caused by a ridesharing driver could be entitled to more compensation for medical costs, lost income, and pain, suffering and emotional trauma resulting from the accident. This includes passengers injured in a rideshare vehicle, regardless of whether their driver was or wasn’t at-fault.
The car accident lawyers at M.R.Parker Law, PC specialize in Lyft and Uber accidents. Contact us today for a free consultation with one of our Lyft/Uber accident lawyers in Woodland Hills.

Speed increases the force of impact. The faster you drive at the time of the collision, the greater the force of the collision. This generally means more serious injuries and more fatalities. Speed also contributes to much more property damage.
When you get behind the wheel of a car you're taking a leap of faith. You're trusting those you're sharing the road with. You trust that they are responsible drivers and put forth enough reasonable care to avoid a wreck. A driver that speeds neglects this responsibility and puts everyone at risk - especially pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorcyclists.
If you’ve been hurt in a high-speed crash in Woodland Hills, and it can be proven the other party was speeding, you may be entitled to compensation.
Let the high-speed collision lawyers at M.R. Parker Law, PC fight to maximize your compensation for medical bills, rehabilitation costs, lost income, pain, suffering, and emotional distress.

WOODLAND HILLS ATTORNEYS FOR TEXTING & DRIVING CAR ACCIDENTS
Accidents Caused By Texting & Driving
A major cause of car accidents is distracted driving. Accidents caused by distracted driving range from very serious - there are many highway fatalities and wrongful death lawsuits linked to distracted driving - to minor rear-end accidents or fender-benders.
According to studies, sending or receiving a tex message raises the risk of a car crash by as much as 25 times.
Studies have also concluded that 4.6 seconds is the average time a driver takes their eyes off the road to send or read a text message. When driving 55 miles per hour, that equates to driving the length of a football field with your eyes covered.
In the state of California, it's against the law for someone driving a car to use their cell phones to make a call, talk without a hands-free setup, and read or type out a text message while driving.
Although texting and driving is what most immediately think of when a distracted driver is mentioned, there are other instances of distracted driving still prevalent. These include: following the directions on an electronic navigation system like GPS or Google Maps, talking on a handheld cell phone, fiddling around with a radio or CD player, doing makeup, smoking or vaping, taking selfies or recording a video. and eating as they are driving.
