Palms Springs Car Accident Downs Power Lines at Arenas and Belardo, October 26

PALM SPRINGS (October 26, 2017) – A multi-vehicle collision occurred at the intersection of Arenas and Belardo roads on Thursday afternoon, according to the Desert Sun.

As per the article, the accident happened around 4 p.m. when a vehicle passing in the area crashed into a parked blue car for an unknown reason. The impact caused a power pole to snap almost in half, and power lines to fall into the nearby trees.

The owner of the parked vehicle, Joe Vasquez, was unharmed in the crash. He was reportedly working in a nearby business at the time of the collision.

Meanwhile, authorities said they are still looking into the condition of all the parties affected in the incident. It was not immediately clear if there were injuries reported, and how many vehicles were actually involved.

Police officers were still on scene as of 5:30 p.m. and the area was still closed for the investigation. Tow-trucks were called in to remove damaged vehicles.

Based on this news report, it is still unclear what exactly caused the accident. The investigators are still looking into several factors that often play a role in the occurrence of injury traffic incidents–driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, speeding, distracted driving or negligence. If the investigation proves that one of the involved motorist was negligent in any form and caused the crash, the injured parties may have the right to pursue a personal injury case against the at-fault person.

You have Questions. We have Answers.

What is My
Case Worth?

Your Answer

Every personal injury case is unique and many factors are used to value each case. The losses from your claim include the amount of the medical bills, lost wages, pain, and suffering, etc. The most important factor is your life change resulting from the injury. Typically, the larger the injury and life change, the larger the settlement. We discuss your personal injury claim’s worth during your free consultation.

Should I talk to
Insurance Company

Your Answer

The first thing you should do is contact an attorney. Without the representation of a lawyer, insurance companies might make contact with you directly, and since they are trained to protect their best interests, this could mean a loss of rights on your behalf, especially if you unknowingly sign something that they didn't completely explain to you.

How Long will
it Take?

Your Answer

The length of a personal injury case depends on many factors including the evaluation and treatment of the injury. The bigger the injury, the longer it takes to treat. Attorney James Johnson helps you be aggressive with the treatment, so the average case normally takes between two and five months. Those who have serious injuries and need surgery may take several months longer. Call for a free consultation 800-208-3538, or complete the form below >

What if I'm
Not Insured?

Your Answer

Many victims believe if you don't have health insurance you don't have a case - this NOT true. In fact, those with health insurance usually don't use it since there are so many restrictions and steps to overcome to receive authorization for treatment. Johnson Attorneys Group assists you in finding the best doctors to help. Most of them even wait until a settlement for payment.

Can I Do It
Myself?

Your Answers

Handling a personal injury claim by yourself is very difficult. You will deal directly with the insurance adjuster who is often trained to obtain the information they are not entitled to use. This information can negatively impact and de-value your case. Once your case is damaged, it is very difficult to repair it and usually costs you thousands of dollars less in a settlement.

How Much
Does it Cost?

Your Answers

You do not pay anything unless you win. We work on a contingency-fee-basis, so we’re only paid if we win your case. When the case is settled, our fee is a percentage, as previously agreed, of the final settlement. These fees are described in full detail in our signed contract before work begins on the case. We cover the case upfront costs including everything from copying and court filing fees to hiring experts - so all your focus can be on getting well.
