Introduction
More than $750 million recovered for truck accident victims across California and Nevada, that figure comes from the three-attorney team at Rafii and Associates, P.C., operating from 9100 Wilshire Blvd., Suite 465E in Beverly Hills. The firm combines over 100 years of combined attorney experience with a network of 11 locations to serve injured motorists wherever in the state a commercial vehicle collision occurred. Cases include a $9.8 million carrier-bus rollover settlement and a $4.6 million trucking accident recovery among the firm’s documented results.
Practice Areas
Rafii and Associates concentrates exclusively on commercial truck accident litigation. Cases involve tractor-trailers, semi-trucks, and 18-wheelers operating on California and Nevada highways and city roads. The firm investigates accidents that occur in construction zones, which present distinct liability questions involving multiple contractors and public agencies, as well as crashes caused by jackknifing, rollover events, and sudden tire blowouts.
Causation investigation is a defining feature of the firm’s case-building process. Driver fatigue, including violations of federal hours-of-service regulations that limit how long commercial drivers can operate without rest, is a common cause that the firm specifically pursues. Employer negligence in hiring, supervising, and training drivers is a separate basis for liability that can extend accountability beyond the driver to the trucking company. Impaired driving and improper vehicle maintenance are additional causation theories the firm develops.
Delivery truck accidents, which increasingly involve independent contractor arrangements creating complex liability chains between delivery platforms, logistics companies, and individual drivers, are also within scope. The multi-party nature of delivery accident liability requires an analysis that goes well beyond a standard two-car collision.
Compensation pursued for clients includes medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering damages, and property damage. The breadth of liable parties the firm pursues, truck drivers, their employing trucking companies, vehicle manufacturers when defective equipment contributes to a crash, and maintenance contractors responsible for keeping trucks roadworthy, reflects the firm’s comprehensive approach to establishing full accountability.
