We take extra precautions when traveling in the car with our children. From car safety seats that graduate with our young passengers’ growth to sunshades, and snacks, we do everything to make sure our kids are primarily safe, and secondly, comfortable.

On the road, there are a multitude of motor vehicle laws that require we take very specific actions in order to protect children. For example, if a child passenger is under the age of 2, they must be riding in a rear-facing car seat, unless and until they reach 40-inches in height, or 40-pounds in weight.

Auto Accidents and Our Young Passengers

Sadly, despite the steps we take personally, and the protections intended by our laws, children are injured in motor vehicle crashes. Tragically, it’s the leading cause of death in children ages one to 14.

Whether the accident was due, for example, to a distracted driver, a driver under the influence, or an overly-aggressive drive, the result is a devastating experience for every family.

If your family has been impacted in this way, it’s in your best interest to ensure their economic recovery is equitably represented in a court of law by experienced, trusted legal representation. Among all the issues that you will have to contend with, you don’t want to be in a position of having to worry whether or not your family’s needs are being prioritized­. We represent your best interests, from insurance companies to court we are there, on your side.

At Tiemann Law Firm, we understand the devastation this type of accident can cause. We see the consequences of a serious car accident almost every day. That’s why our Sacramento car accident lawyers are dedicated to helping families like yours recover following a serious car accident.

If you or a loved one has been involved in a car accident in Sacramento or the surrounding areas, including Folsom, Citrus Heights, or Rocklin, contact Tiemann Law Firm today to discuss your legal rights. Call (916) 999-9000 or toll-free: (800) 712-2000, and we will schedule a free case evaluation to review your claim.

From the very start of my case the Tiemann Law Firm was wonderful. Perter came all the way to my home to sit down and talk to me about my options. He made me and my partner feel very comfortable and promised us he would take the very best care of my case. Peter kept me informed every step of the way and was always on top of things. everything was done in a timely manor and I always felt like I was the only case he was working on because he was so fast. In the end Peter got me back way more money than I ever expected. I would recommend this law firm to everyone. I am very happy with the outcome of my case thanks to the Tiemann Law Firm! Thank you!

I just saw my lawyer Jelena Tiemann on a t.v ad, which reminded me how much she helped when I was in a desperate situation. I just love her! That is why I feel a need to tell everyone. I had a situation that happened & didn’t know what to do, our where to go. I didn’t even know if she could help me or if any lawyer could. All I wanted was it to go away & was afraid most lawyers wanted to drag it out & possibly go to court. For one she was very professional but was very personable (maybe b.c she’s a lady). She didn’t make me feel embarrassed or self-conscious that I did something wrong or was the cause of the situation. She immediately said we should try our best before going to court. Let me handle some paperwork, if at the last we do go to court we have documents. She gave me all the details, pros and cons but reassured me she deals with these cases all the time. She came through and made it as painless as possible. I now have my life back.
