Highway 41 Accident West of Fresno County

I am Attorney John Rozier, a personal injury lawyer, serving Tulare County, Fresno County, Kern County, Kings County and all of the Central San Joaquin Valley.  I have more than 25 years of experience, and have had many successful case results.  Here is an example of one such case.

A family was traveling on their way to their house in Cambria, California, when their vehicle hydroplaned across Highway 41, and struck two other vehicles.  The driver witnessed the wrongful death of her niece, and also shattered her foot.

Our law firm was able to show that Caltrans, (California Department of Transportation), was liable for the accident, because of an improper slope in the roadway, which had been noted in their documents.  We were able to get the family $582,500 for the collision, from Caltrans.
