Vallejo Car Accident Attorneys
The skilled and experienced Vallejo car accident attorneys at Eason & Tambornini have been helping people win maximum settlements arising from car accident claims for over thirty years.
As a “fault” state, California law dictates that the person or people responsible for causing a car accident are also legally responsible for damages caused by the accident. But how do you know who is responsible for the cause of a car accident? The simple answer is that it isn’t always clear whose fault it is. There can be more than one party or person held responsible in varying degrees.
One thing is clear: You need an aggressive attorney fighting on your behalf to ensure the most favorable outcome possible following a car accident. Our car accident attorneys in Vallejo have a combined 100 years of experience helping car accident victims get the maximum compensation they deserve.
We are proud members of the California State Bar and hold top honors from Martindale-Hubbard, a nationwide peer-review system that rates legal professionals. Our attorneys know the Vallejo region, and we are ready to help.

What does a car accident attorney do?
Our Vallejo car accident attorneys pursue maximum settlements for people hurt or have property damage from a car accident. As your legal representation, we will communicate with insurance companies, other attorneys, and the court system if your case goes to trial. This includes negotiating on your behalf with insurance adjusters who are only looking out for their bottom line.
How soon should I hire a car accident attorney after a wreck?
Are you hurt? How badly? Is there significant property damage? Is the other driver insured? Is the accident 100% the other driver’s fault? Could you be partially at fault? The answer to these questions can vary widely depending on many factors. The easiest and safest path forward is to call one of our car accident lawyers in Vallejo as soon as possible after an accident.
Hiring the Right Car Accident Attorney in Vallejo
Attorneys are not in short supply, but attorneys with over three decades of experience representing car accident victims, who are widely respected by their peers, who have consistently highly positive client reviews, and who are skilled communicators, are not so common.
The final important factor to consider when hiring an attorney is compatibility. You should feel listened to and respected at your free consultation with one of our Vallejo car accident attorneys. You can always call references (which we are happy to provide), but it should feel like a good fit at the end of the day. Our Vallejo car accident attorneys bring all these desirable elements to every case we accept, and we are confident that you will see it the same way.
No Fees Until You Win
Our contingency fee structure means that clients pay nothing until they win. There is no fine print, no catches, and no tricks. Therefore, we only take cases we are highly confident will result in a maximum settlement. After you win your settlement, we get paid. If you don’t win, you owe nothing.
When a Car Accident Claim Goes to Trial
We will pursue a lawsuit as your legal representative if negotiations do not result in a fair, maximum settlement offer. If this happens, you only pay fees once you win. If you don’t win, you don’t pay a dime.
Free Consultations to Evaluate Your Case
Our Vallejo car accident lawyers offer a free consultation to discuss the facts of your situation. This appointment can be in person or virtual and is entirely free. Once we listen to your story, you will have an opportunity to ask any questions you have.
Am I required to hire a lawyer at a “free consultation”?
Our free consultation offer is standard for every potential client. You are not obligated to hire us; there is no fee even if we say “yes” and you say “no.” Additionally, if we don’t think you have a case, we will be honest with you, and there is still no fee for our time.
Types of Compensation You May Be Entitled to After a Car Accident
There are two main types of damages you may be entitled to, which your Vallejo car accident attorney can explain at your free consultation: compensatory and punitive. Standard compensatory damages compensate victims for property damage, medical expenses, lost wages (including future earnings), and pain and suffering.
Punitive damages are rare, meaning they may or may not be awarded. Unlike compensatory damages, punitive damages are designed to punish the responsible (at-fault) party for their apparent misconduct and deter future similar behavior.
Determining Fault in Car Accident Claims
Several factors are used to determine fault in a car accident. Often, the main factors include details of the police report (the official recording document of an incident), witness statements, and surveillance footage. The traffic laws and regulations will also govern where the accident can be used as guidelines.
Common Causes of Car Accidents in Vallejo
