Located in the South Bay region of Los Angeles County, adjacent to LAX Airport, lies the city of Inglewood. It was incorporated as a city in 1908 and is known for its rich history and great climate.
But, as a city with over 100,000 people, it has its share of accidents, often caused by the negligent behavior of others.
For example, according to the latest annual OTS Crash Ranking Results, Inglewood ranks #6 out of 59 cities for the number of pedestrians killed or injured every year.
Note: The OTS Crash Ranking Results compare a city’s traffic safety statistics to those of other cities with similar-sized populations.

Personal Injuries
“Personal injury” is a legal term used where an individual suffers physical, emotional, or reputational damage caused by another person or entity.
The three grounds for filing personal injury claims are:
- Negligence (the most common)
- Strict Liability
- Intentional Wrongs
Negligence is any act or omission (failure to act) by the other party that results in a breach of their duty of care that could likely cause injuries to others.
Contact a personal injury lawyer at Cohen & Marzban for a more detailed explanation based on your unique case.
Events that might lead to a personal injury claim include:
Car Accidents – One of the leading causes of personal injuries in Inglewood and Los Angeles County. Car accidents typically occur due to speeding, fatigue, aggressive driving, mechanical defects, DUI, distracted driving, and improper turning.
Truck Accidents – You don’t stand a chance against a large truck that weighs between 20 and 30 times more than your car. Statistics published by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) show that about 97% of vehicle occupants killed in two-vehicle crashes involving a passenger vehicle and a large truck are occupants of the passenger vehicles.
Motorcycle Accidents – Riding a motorcycle is a great way to travel in Inglewood. But, as a rider or passenger, you stand a much higher chance of sustaining injuries in a motorcycle accident. Other motorists are often not observant enough to avoid an accident with a motorcycle they did not see coming.
Uber and Lyft Accidents – In most cities, including Inglewood, many residents depend on ride-hailing services, such as Uber and Lyft. It is a convenient way to travel, especially if you’re meeting friends or family for drinks. However, with the surge in popularity of ride-hailing services comes an increase in Uber and Lyft accidents and personal injury claims.
Slip and Fall Accidents – Falls are the second leading cause of unintentional injury deaths worldwide. Millions of people are injured in slip and fall accidents across the United States every year. And Inglewood is no exception. Many residents suffer injuries from slipping on wet floors, uneven pavements, etc.
