RIDE SHARE INJURIES
The ride-sharing industry continues to expand across the country, becoming a staple of the modern American economy. Rideshare services can offer passengers a more convenient, and often times, more affordable alternative to the traditional taxi cab model. Ride-sharing companies, such as Uber and Lyft, use Smartphone and GPS technology to provide passengers with streamlined and efficient access to their services. However, ride-share drivers are often times not trained, professional drivers, but rather everyday citizens trying to earn a living. This lack of expertise and distractions from cell phones and GPS devices can lead to tragic accidents. Rideshare accidents have different laws and insurance policy coverage rules that can make the process daunting and confusing. Owili has handled dozens of ride-share accident cases, and has the experience and expertise to help you navigate this process.
PREMISES LIABILITY
Under California's legal doctrine of premises liability, property owners and occupiers owe a duty of care to keep their property in a reasonably safe condition. A property owner or occupier who fails to keep their property in a reasonably safe condition or fails to warn of a dangerous condition on the property may be liable for injuries sustained on the property. If you have been injured at a home, apartment or business, and you believe that the injury could have been prevented, you may have a premises liability claim.

WRONGFUL DEATH
Wrongful death claims are brought against a defendant who has caused someone's death, either through their negligent conduct or as a result of some intentional action. Wrongful death claims allow the decedent's estate and/or rightful family members to file a lawsuit against the party who legally caused the death. Though every state's wrongful death laws are unique, in California, these wrongful death lawsuits are usually brought by a representative of the deceased person's estate, typically on behalf of surviving family members impacted by the death.
