San Francisco Personal Injury Lawyers

Our law firm here at BD&J is a full-scale law firm which means in addition to being accident attorneys for car, truck, motorcycle, pedestrian, and bicycle crashes, we also handle and manage other types of accidents causing personal injury. These types of injury accidents typically stem from the negligence of a third party who owed a duty and failed to perform that duty, causing you direct physical harm. Other accidents may rise to the level of recklessness, giving way to make a claim for significant punitive and monetary damages. Punitive damages seek to punish and deter the specific behavior that caused the harm to begin with.

BD&J lawyers are exceptional in the sense that their knowledge of the law combined with their experience of litigating complex cases, as well as their negotiating ability can create a desired successful settlement outcome for your case and to your benefit.

Accidents that occur in San Francisco County must be properly filed. Your attorney will determine the proper venue for bringing a lawsuit which includes where the accident occurred, where a contract was entered into or broken, or where the person you are suing does business or lives. If you were for example, at a nightclub in San Francisco, and slipped and fell on the premises due to the negligence of the nightclub’s owner’s staff, failing to timely clean up a spilled drink, the suit would be against the tenant- the club owner. If the landlord would also have a reason to know about a dangerous condition, depending on the circumstances, the landlord could be sued and held liable as well if other conditions are met. This would probably not occur in the nightclub scenario. To establish liability under California law against a property owner, we must establish the property owner had a duty of care to the injured party, that duty was breached, and such breach caused the injured plaintiff direct harm.

Other types of personal injury claims that may arise include the use of products, specifically defects in design, manufacturing, and safety concerns that come with using a product for its intended use. Many of these defect cases occur for baby and infant products which pose a significant safety risk to the intended user- a child. Product defect claims specifically stem from 3 categories which are manufacturing defects, design defects, and warning defects (a failure to warn or label properly).
