San Francisco Taxicab Accident

San Francisco Lawsuit Verdicts & Settlements
 
Pedestrian v. Taxicab -- $735,000 Settlement

Our team achieved a $735,000 recovery on behalf of a 42-year-old woman struck by a DeSoto taxi cab while she was crossing The Embarcadero in a marked crosswalk in downtown San Francisco. Our attorneys hired accident reconstruction engineers who were able to prove that the cab was exceeding 50 miles per hour when it struck our client. The cab driver originally claimed that a "phantom" car ahead of it actually struck our client first, thereafter knocking her into the cab. The cab driver also claimed that the injured plaintiff was crossing against a red light. Our attorneys proved otherwise.

If you were injured because of taxicab driver negligence, you have a right to seek financial compensation. Our San Francisco taxcab accident attorneys can help. Contact us today for a free consultation to discuss your Muni claim.
