Woman Killed in Hit-and-run Crash on Don Julian Road

BALDWIN PARK, Calif. (Jan. 8, 2018) — Junrong Li, 81, of La Puente, was killed in a hit-and-run pedestrian accident Saturday on Don Julian Road, just west of Pamela Kay Lane, according to the Los Angeles County Coroner.

The crash took place about 6:50 p.m. as Li walked northbound across Don Julian Road. She was struck by a driver in a black or tan sedan that was heading westbound. The driver failed to stop and help the woman, instead they turned onto Workman Mill Road and kept driving.

Responding firefighters pronounced Li dead at the scene, the CHP said.

Witnesses may contact the Baldwin Park CHP Office at (626) 338-1164.

Those of us at Johnson Attorneys Group offer our condolences to the family of Junrong Li as they cope with this tragedy.

Typically, a pedestrian has the right-of-way when crossing a street and vehicles must yield to them. A driver who is speeding, distracted or driving recklessly, may not see a pedestrian if they are outside of a marked crosswalk.

A driver who strikes down a pedestrian and fails to stop, may also face criminal charges once they are located. At that time, the victim’s family may have grounds to file a civil lawsuit seeking compensation for all the medical expenses, lost wages, property damage and pain and suffering.

If you, or your loved one, have been hurt in a car accident such as this one, we urge you to contact Johnson Attorneys Group today and speak with one of our experienced personal injury lawyers to help you. We will bring our expertise to your case and guide you every step of the way. Give us a call at 800-235-6801 for a free consultation. – sks

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.
