Napa County Attorneys

 

Napa County is one of the nine counties that make up the San Francisco Bay area. It is also one of the four North Bay counties. It has one of the smallest populations of the counties in the Bay area, with around 136,000 residents. The county seat is Napa. Napa County is probably best known today for its wine production, with over 400 wineries that grow many different varieties of grapes. Tourism is also a huge industry for the area, with over five million people visiting the county each year.

Over five million visitors, as well as year-round residents, can mean a lot of traffic, particularly at peak seasons. In 2011, there were 642 automobile accidents involving injuries, and there were eight fatalities. Two of the fatal accidents involved alcohol, and 91 of the injury-accidents involved alcohol. There were also injured pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorcyclists, as well as one fatal pedestrian accident.

Fortunately, for those involved in automobile accidents in Napa County, help is available. Automobile accident victims may choose to pursue compensation for their injuries. Types of compensation available include compensation for property damage to a vehicle, medical expenses (which can be significant), lost wages, wrongful death, diminished earning capacity, and more. Some accident victims choose to pursue a settlement themselves directly with the other driver’s insurance company. However, this is rarely a good idea – studies have shown that client with attorneys on average end up with more money than those without attorneys, even after the fees are subtracted.
