California’s freeways are among the most traveled in the country. The 405, 101, and I-5 are major routes for commuters, commercial drivers, and tourists. Unfortunately, they are also frequent sites of serious car accidents. If you were injured in a crash on one of these highways, it is important to understand your legal options. At LA Injury Attorneys, we have helped clients across California get the compensation they deserve after high-speed collisions on these dangerous roads.
Why Freeway Accidents Are More Complicated
Accidents on the 405, 101, and I-5 often involve multiple vehicles, commercial trucks, or rideshare drivers. These crashes may occur at high speeds, increasing the risk of serious injuries such as broken bones, spinal injuries, or traumatic brain injuries. Determining fault can be difficult when several parties are involved.
In many cases, freeway crashes are caused by distracted driving, speeding, tailgating, or reckless lane changes. Commercial vehicles and rideshare drivers may also be on tight schedules, which can lead to unsafe behavior behind the wheel. Our experienced car accident attorneys work with investigators, accident reconstruction experts, and medical professionals to uncover the facts and build strong cases for our clients.
Steps to Take After a Highway Crash
After an accident on the freeway, the most important step is to get medical care. Even if you feel fine, you may have internal injuries or symptoms that appear later. Be sure to call 911, file a police report, and gather as much information as possible at the scene. Take photos of the vehicles, road conditions, and your injuries, if you can.
Do not speak to insurance companies before consulting with a lawyer. Insurance adjusters often contact victims quickly, offering settlements that are far below what your case is worth. At LA Injury Attorneys, we serve clients in Los Angeles, Burbank, and Glendale, and we are ready to step in immediately to protect your rights.
Our team also helps accident victims in Long Beach, Pasadena, and Rancho Cucamonga. No matter where the accident occurred, we work fast to preserve evidence and handle all communication with the insurance companies.
What You May Be Entitled To
If you were hurt in a freeway accident, you may be eligible to recover compensation for:
- Current and future medical expenses
- Lost wages and loss of future earning ability
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Vehicle repairs or replacement

We also represent clients in more complex cases involving truck accidents, rideshare accidents, and wrongful death. Our legal team understands the unique challenges these cases bring and knows how to fight back when insurance companies try to deny or delay your claim.
