Orange County Taxi Accident Lawyer
TABLE OF CONTENTS
Despite heavy competition from Uber, Lyft, and other rideshare services, taxis remain an important part of the transportation picture in Orange County.
Hardworking taxi drivers are trying their best to make a living and transport people safely, but dwindling profit margins often entice them to work longer hours than they should. Couple this with multitasking calls for rides, running other businesses from their car, and troubleshooting family events from their taxi while they drive and it’s no wonder that taxi accidents are on the rise. Distracted driving and other types of accidents that are common for taxis, often cause severe or even catastrophic injuries for victims, so it’s important to hire the best Orange County taxi accident lawyers that can get you the large amount of monetary damages you need as compensation for your medical costs, rehabilitation expenses, lost earnings, pain, suffering, and mental anguish. The Text Kevin Accident Attorneys has a top-notch team of personal injury attorneys that successfully collected large amounts of money for people injured in taxi accidents. Call (888) 965-3827 to schedule a free consultation.

What Causes Taxi Accidents?
One of the leading causes of motor vehicle accidents in Orange County, and throughout the United States, is driver fatigue. It’s well established that drivers that don’t have enough sleep have slower reflexes and can even fall asleep at the wheel. Federal law prohibits commercial passenger drivers such as taxi drivers, bus drivers, and train operators from working longer than ten hours shifts, but many taxi drivers do not adhere to this restriction. That’s why taxi accidents are more likely to cause severe or catastrophic injuries than accidents with regular passenger cars. This is due, at least in part, to the fact that passengers in taxis are less likely to wear seatbelts than passengers in private cars. The gig economy has also had an impact on taxi accidents, with new or part-time taxi drivers more than five times as likely to commit traffic violations and cause accidents than experienced drivers. These are some of the major causes of taxi accidents in Orange County:
- Driver Fatigue and Inattention
- Driving Aggressively
- Violation of Traffic Rules and Regulations
- Excessive Speed
- Use of Mobile Devices
- Drug and Alcohol Involvement
If you’ve been injured in a taxi accident, it’s important to contact experienced Orange County taxi accident lawyers as soon as possible after the crash. The Text Kevin Accident Attorneys top-notch legal team has successfully collected large amounts of money for people injured in taxi accidents. Call (888) 965-3827 to schedule a free consultation.
Compensation For People Injured In Taxi Accidents
If you’ve been seriously injured in a taxi accident, the cost of out-of-pocket medical expenses and rehabilitation can be daunting, especially in conjunction with the lost earnings due to your inability to work. That’s why it’s important to collect the compensation you’re entitled to from the responsible parties. These are some of the types of compensation that are available to victims of taxi accidents: Compensatory Damages are available to compensate injured victims of negligence and recklessness for their losses. There are two basic types of compensatory damages: special damages and general damages. Special Damages are compensation for monetary losses that are caused by an injury such as:
- Medical expenses for hospitals, surgery, prosthetics, testing, physical therapy, rehabilitation, prescription medicines, and other types of medical care.
- Lost income from your inability to work due to your injuries either from the inability to work at your place of employment or lost revenue from your business. You can also be reimbursed for hiring somebody to replace you at your business for the time you’re unable to work. If your injuries permanently prohibit you from doing the work you were doing and, as a result, you are not able to earn as much money, you can be compensated for this lost earning capacity. For example, a model with a scar on her face or a professional athlete that’s suffered a severe orthopedic injury could collect millions of dollars for lost earning capacity.
General damages are sometimes called “subjective damages” or “non-economic” damages. They are intended to compensate victims for the pain, suffering, and mental anguish that they’ve suffered as a result of their injuries. For victims with severe or catastrophic injuries, settlements and verdicts can be in the millions of dollars.
In order to collect the largest possible amount of monetary compensation for injuries sustained in a taxi accident, it’s important to hire Orange County taxi accident lawyers that have successfully handled many similar cases. The Text Kevin Accident Attorneys are Orange County’s leading taxi accident attorneys, with a top-notch legal team that successfully collected large amounts of money for people injured in taxi accidents.

Common Injuries From Taxi Accidents
Injuries from taxi accidents span the range from mild to catastrophic, with specific types of injuries that are more likely than others. Here are some examples of injuries caused by taxi accidents:
- Soft Tissue Injuries are injuries are strains, sprains, bruising, and other types of injuries to the tendons, muscles, and ligaments. Some doctors refer to all orthopedic injuries that aren’t fractures as soft tissue injuries. Some types of torn ligaments and back injuries may cause long-term disability and require multiple surgeries to repair. Soft tissue injuries are not necessarily minor.
- Broken Bones can range from mild hairline fractures that heal on their own, to compound fractures where the skin is pierced by broken bone and comminuted fractures where the bone shatters into three or more pieces. Severe fractures can require multiple surgeries to repair and cause long-term disability.
- Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI’s) are when the brain suffers damage due to an impact or object piercing into the brain through the skull. The brain does not feel pain, so the extent of the injury may not be apparent from the early symptoms, so medical attention is imperative for all head injuries.
- Back Injuries are soft tissue injuries to the spine that can generally be treated with physical therapy and chiropractic care, but may sometimes require surgery to relieve pain.
- Spinal Cord Injuries (SCI’s) are fractures and dislocations of the spinal cord that can cause loss of function and sensation. Some spinal cord injuries cause paralysis from the site of the injury down such as paraplegia and quadriplegia.
- Burns occur when vehicles catch on fire or explode after a collision due to contact with hot surfaces, hot liquids, steam, or chemicals. They range from first-degree burns that heal on their own to fourth-degree burns that can cause internal injuries and death.
- Disfigurement occurs when lacerations, burns, or other injuries cause prominent scarring on the face or other cosmetically sensitive areas. It also occurs when a body part is amputated traumatically or surgically.
It might not be possible to tell how severe your injuries are right after an accident, so it’s always a good idea to go to the emergency room from the scene of an accident to get checked out. Some head injuries and internal injuries can be asymptomatic or have very mild symptoms early on, and failure to get treatment could be fatal.
