Video Call with a Lawyer — Roseville, CA — Frank Penney Injury Lawyers

Although we’re all still under the stay-at-home order in California, accidents and personal injury cases are still as prevalent as ever. Unfortunately, just because the world has slowed down and been forced to take a pause doesn’t mean that accidents and injuries have, too.


So, what if you’re involved in an accident during the COVID-19 pandemic? Can you still call a California injury lawyer?


The answer is yes! And we’re going to walk you through how to hire a personal injury lawyer remotely and still receive the same care, attention, and justice that you would by seeking counsel in office.

Navigating Our New Normal

There’s no question that the global COVID-19 pandemic has forced us all into changes that we never saw coming. From lost jobs and wages to all of a sudden playing teacher to our kids, times are tough and uncertain.


As we all work to navigate and adjust to our new normal, there’s still the threat of accidents and injuries. In fact, California and other states around the country have reported a severe uptick in speeding drivers on the now less busy roadways.


As the crisis prolongs and the spring months are upon us, we’re all looking for ways to get outside of our homes, whether that be a car ride with the family, a walk through the neighborhood, or a bike ride. While we’re out and about, the risk for accidents and injuries is still there, so it’s important to be mindful of your surroundings at all times.

What to Do After a Car Accident

Even the most prepared and cautious motorist can experience an accident out on the road. And when it comes to what steps you should take immediately following an accident, nothing has changed.


It’s vital that you contact a California injury lawyer ASAP. After you alert the proper authorities, your next phone call should be to a personal injury attorney, even before you contact your insurance company.


When it comes to auto accidents and personal injury cases, there’s no time to waste and your swift action can make or break your case.

How to Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer During COVID-19

You may be wondering if you even have access to a qualified attorney to help you file a case during the pandemic, and the answer is yes, you absolutely do. Although we may not be able to meet you in our offices right now, our services are still available for you just as they always have been.


Attorneys have shifted their practices, just as many other businesses have, to a remote-based environment in order to keep everyone safe from contamination while still providing essential services. Thanks to video conferencing software and chat technology, you can feel like you’re in the same room with someone anywhere in the world, making the transition smoother than anyone thought possible.


If you experience an accident during the COVID-19 pandemic, don’t panic. We’re here to take your call and provide you with the same personalized service and dedication that we would if you were to walk into our office.


We’re able to continue to serve our clients by utilizing telephone and video conferencing software to provide comprehensive consultations without putting anyone at risk and while abiding by the law.

A tragic accident on State Route 32 claimed the life of a motorcyclist on Sunday evening. The crash happened around 6:30 p.m. near Sacramento Avenue when a 40-year-old Hamilton City man driving a 2022 Tesla attempted to make a left turn. At the same time, a 43-year-old man from Forest Ranch was riding his 2022 Harley Davidson eastbound on SR-32. The Tesla driver, failing to see the oncoming motorcycle, turned directly into its path, causing a devastating collision. The impact sent the motorcyclist forward, where he struck a stop sign before being ejected from his bike. Sadly, he did not survive his injuries. The Tesla driver remained at the scene, and authorities do not believe drugs or alcohol played a role in the crash. The identities of those involved have not yet been released.

A motorcyclist lost his life in a devastating crash on the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge Friday afternoon, according to the California Highway Patrol. The accident happened around 2:11 p.m. on eastbound Interstate 80, just west of the bridge's toll plaza. The 30-year-old rider was traveling on a Triumph motorcycle when he collided with a Toyota Corolla. The impact threw him from his bike, leaving him vulnerable in one of the traffic lanes. Moments later, another vehicle struck him and fled the scene without stopping. Meanwhile, the Toyota driver remained at the crash site and cooperated with authorities. Emergency responders arrived quickly, but the motorcyclist was pronounced dead at 2:35 p.m. His identity has not yet been released, and the Alameda County Coroner’s Office will determine the official cause of death. Police continue to investigate the hit-and-run, urging anyone with information to come forward.

A devastating car accident in Sacramento County claimed the life of a high school student on Sunday evening. According to the California Highway Patrol, the crash occurred around 7 p.m. on Twin Cities Road, just west of Alta Mesa Road. The teen driver lost control of the vehicle, slammed on the brakes, and flipped over before crashing into a tree. Tragically, the impact impaled the young driver, who was rushed to the hospital but did not survive. Authorities have not yet released the student's identity, but Lodi High School confirmed the loss in a heartfelt statement on Monday. "It is with profound sadness that we inform you of the tragic loss of one of our students who passed away yesterday,” the school shared. “Our hearts go out to the family and friends affected by this loss. We know this will create a deep void in the lives of many.” A passenger in the vehicle sustained lacerations and was also transported to a local hospital, though their current condition remains unknown. Investigators do not believe drugs or alcohol played a role in the crash, but the incident is still under investigation.
