Liability In Los Angeles Rental Car Accidents

Rental Car Accident Lawyers Los Angeles

Each day, thousands of people come to Los Angeles for business, school, socializing work and vacation. Many travelers use rental cars to get to and from their destinations. In doing so, they may be involved in an auto accident that causes serious injuries. Accidents involving rental cars are especially complex because there are usually multiple liable parties. If you have been injured in a rental car accident in Los Angeles County, and the accident was caused by the negligence of another, then it’s in your best interest to call a lawyer who handles rental car accidents.

Liability In A Rental Car Accident

Typically the rental car company is held liable for any accidents involving cars in their fleet. This is true even if the driver was not listed on the rental agreement. To make things more complicated, rental car companies are also limited by state statutes.

Because rental cars are so frequently picked up and dropped off at various locations, they may not always be properly maintained. Sometimes rental car companies are not up-to-date on auto part recalls, which places renters in danger, and can make the company responsible for your injuries.

In addition to the rental car company, other liable parties may include:

  • The driver
  • The drivers insurance company
  • The drivers employer (if they were working when the accident occurred)
  • The city, county, or state that you were injured in
  • The auto manufacturer
