Whittier, like many Southern California communities, experiences its share of traffic accidents. According to the California Office of Traffic Safety, Los Angeles County consistently ranks high in accident rates across the state.

Research from the California Highway Patrol's Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS) shows that intersection collisions and freeway accidents account for a significant percentage of Whittier's traffic incidents. A 2023 report from the Transportation Injury Mapping System (TIMS) at UC Berkeley identified several high-risk corridors in and around Whittier where accident rates exceed state averages.

Whittier's proximity to major thoroughfares including Interstate 605 (the San Gabriel River Freeway) and State Route 72 (Whittier Boulevard) creates unique traffic patterns that can increase accident risk. Local streets such as Philadelphia Street, Painter Avenue, and Greenleaf Avenue also see frequent collision incidents, particularly during rush hours.

After a collision, insurance companies often move quickly to minimize their financial responsibility. Our team at Moseley Collins Law handles all communication with insurance adjusters, ensuring your rights are protected throughout the claims process.

Establishing fault in California requires careful investigation. We work with accident reconstruction experts to document crash scenes, gather witness statements, and collect evidence necessary to build a compelling case.

Many car accident survivors underestimate the full impact of their injuries and property damage. Our experienced team ensures all current and future costs are properly calculated, including:

• Vehicle repair or replacement costs
• Current and future medical expenses
• Lost wages and diminished earning capacity
• Pain and suffering
• Rehabilitation needs

If a fair settlement cannot be reached through negotiation, we are fully prepared to take your case to court. With decades of litigation experience, our team advocates vigorously for your interests before judges and juries.
