San Francisco Tourist Accidents Lawyer
Legal Help if You Were Injured on Vacation in California
Sunny beaches, picturesque mountains and world-class amusement parks make California the perfect vacation destination for domestic and international tourists. Of the millions of tourists visiting the state every year, hundreds will suffer an injury while on vacation.
Tourists injured in California are usually hurt in car accidents in rental cars, in public transit accidents with taxis or tour buses, in pedestrian and bicycling accidents (sometimes with cable cars), and in recreational activities like boating, skiing and visiting amusement parks.
If you were injured or a family member died while on vacation in California, contact the tourist accident attorneys at the law office of Abramson Smith Waldsmith, LLP, for experienced legal counsel. We have been helping injured people for more than 30 years.
Representing Overseas Clients Effectively
We have represented clients from Europe and Asia.

Depositions of foreign doctors and witnesses can also be videotaped.
Staff at our firm speaks Spanish and French and we can obtain translators for other languages. Business can be conducted over the Internet or by phone. We have a toll-free number for your convenience: 888.745.2988.
Understanding Your Rights Under California Personal Injury Law
The U.S. legal system is unique in the world because it allows the injured person to seek justice in court without first having to pay a lawyer a large retainer to take a case.
In U.S. personal injury cases, the lawyer advances the costs of filing the lawsuit. The lawyer's fees are paid from the money the client receives as part of the settlement, arbitration or jury award. If the attorney is unsuccessful, he is paid nothing for the costs he has advanced or the time he has spent.
