Los Angeles Distracted Driving Accident Attorneys
Arshakyan Law Firm Advocates for Victims of Distracted Driving
Driving is a complex task, requiring your full attention and focus. Unfortunately, many drivers today are not paying enough attention to the road, instead choosing to use their cellphones to talk, text, or send messages. In some cases, drivers are using their cellphones to look at maps or use social media, all of which take their eyes off the road and their hands off the wheel. These behaviors can lead to distracted driving accidents, which can cause serious injuries.
At the Arshakyan Law Firm, we believe no one should suffer due to someone else's negligence. If you or a loved one has been injured in a distracted driving accident, we can help.

What Is Considered Distracted Driving in California?
In California, distracted driving is considered any activity that diverts attention from driving, including using a mobile device for calling, reading or writing text messages. Other distractions include reaching for an object inside the vehicle, looking at an event outside of the vehicle, or eating while driving. The state has stringent laws against the use of cell phones while operating a vehicle.
Remember, safe driving requires full attention on the road. Distracted driving not only puts you at risk but others as well. Stay safe and abide by the laws.
Who Is Liable in a California Distracted Driving Accident?
In California, the party at fault for a distracted driving accident is typically the driver who was distracted. This can include activities such as texting, eating, or interacting with passengers that divert the driver's attention from the road. Even if the distraction seems minor, any form of inattention that leads to an accident can result in the driver being held financially responsible for the resulting losses, such as injuries and property damage. However, in certain circumstances, passengers who knowingly distract the driver could also share some liability.
Common Serious Injuries Caused by Distracted Driving:
Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs): These can range from mild concussions to severe brain damage, often resulting from the sudden jolt of a car crash.
Spinal Cord Injuries: These can lead to partial or complete paralysis, depending on the severity and location of the injury.
Broken Bones: High-impact crashes can cause fractures in the arms, legs, ribs, and other parts of the body.
Internal Injuries: The force of a collision can damage internal organs, leading to life-threatening conditions.
Cuts and Lacerations: Broken glass and metal can cause serious cuts, which can lead to significant blood loss or infection.
Burns: If a car catches fire or explodes after a crash, occupants can suffer severe burn injuries.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD): Apart from physical injuries, victims of distracted driving accidents can also suffer from PTSD, anxiety, and other psychological issues.
The extent of your injuries will determine whether you require time off work, treatment, specialized equipment, or modifications to your home. Emotional trauma and physical pain are also potential consequences. It is important to recognize that these losses are legitimate and deserving of compensation. At the Arshakyan Law Firm, we possess the expertise to substantiate these losses, ensuring you receive full and equitable compensation.
