Big-Rig Ignites — Southbound 5 Freeway in Sun Valley Closes


A vehicle accident that involved a big-rig caused the truck to combust on the southbound 5 freeway near Sun Valley. To protect other drivers from the combusted truck, officials closed all lanes on the freeway on Friday morning, January 26, 2018. The crash happened at around 3:40 a.m. on Friday near Sunland Blvd. when the driver lost control of the big-rig and crashed into a center divider. The truck ignited and caught on fire, according to the California Highway Patrol’s traffic incident log. The violent impact created a massive fire and split the big-rig in two pieces. Firefighters responded and between twenty-nine of them, they extinguished the flames 26 minutes. The big-rig’s cargo was exclusively cheese. The crash and the fire left the cheese all over the highway, and the cheese near the truck was converted into fondue on the street rather than in a dining room. The driver was taken to the hospital in good condition. Investigators have not yet talked to the driver and have not yet figured out what caused the accident. Two lanes of the freeway reopened at 9 a.m. DTLA Law Group Truck accidents can be incredibly dangerous, and when you are involved in one you have to contact a personal injury attorney to help you recover compensation for the damages you incurred following the accident. Our attorneys are here for you and want to help you get right restitution for your personal injuries after you get in an accident with a big-rig.
  • Hospital Bills — Hospital and medical treatment is incredibly expensive, and can (and has) bankrupted many people who sought care. Our attorneys will make sure that you get enough compensation to pay off those expensive medical bills you get after you receive treatment — whether it be medication, MRIs, X-rays, surgery, and so on. Furthermore, our attorneys can assure you get the right compensation for any future procedures you may need, including physical therapy.
  • Lost Wages — When you don’t work, you don’t get paid. Sometimes, your injuries may make it impossible for you to do the necessary tasks you need to do your job. When this happens, you may have the right to collect lost wages. When you collect lost wages gives you back the money you could have made at your regular hourly wage. If you were permanently disabled, you can get compensated for lost potential wages.
  • Pain & Suffering — Violent incidents can evoke physical changes in our brain and induce mental illnesses that were never there before. The disorders include things like anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder. It requires a medical professional to testify that you are suffering from these mental disorders, and our attorneys can get the right physician to prove without a doubt you’re suffering from psychological illnesses.
Free Legal Consultation Our law offices at DTLA Law Group offer all clients free legal consultation. This means that you can sit down with one of our attorneys and explain the details of your case. Our qualified attorney will listen to what you have to say and offer their initial thoughts and opinions on it. This comes to you at no cost whatsoever. The reason we are willing to do this is because we want our clients to be as informed as possible before they make a decision on legal representation. In addition, we offer the zero-fee guarantee. What does this mean? The zero-fee guarantee means that from the moment you sign with us to the very last day of your case, you will not pay us a penny. We will not charge you for our legal services if we are unable to prove your case and get you the compensation you deserve. We only charge our clients when we are able to do our job and prove their cases. We do this because we know it is unethical to charge clients who seek restitution.
