What are the Most Common Causes of Car Accidents in Modesto?

Common car accident causes include:

Depending on the nature of the accident, you may suffer severe or minor injuries. In a head-on collision, for example, the driver might hit their head on the steering wheel and collide with the door. In this case, they could suffer a head injury, whiplash, and perhaps internal injuries or broken bones.

Each car accident is unique, and the resulting injuries can vary. In any case, if the accident was caused by someone else’s negligence or mistake, you should pursue legal action to obtain the compensation you deserve.

  • “Very knowledgeable in his craft.”
    I came to the Law Office of Dean Petrulakis after being referred from a friend. I was previously working with another firm who had done very little to help me, let alone communicate with me. Mr. Petrulakis took time to speak with me over the phone and after consideration of the difficulties related to my case, he agreed to take my case. I was very impressed and appreciative of the genuine concern and compassion he relayed. He is very knowledgeable in his craft, and equally kind and personable. He and his assistant Jennifer were amazing communicators who kept me well informed without delay. My case was handled quickly, professionally, and exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend the Law Offices of Dean Petrulakis to everyone/anyone who has been injured and needs representation.
