PROTECTING THE LEGAL INTERESTS OF INJURED HAWAII RESIDENTS AND VISITORS SINCE 1973

Experienced Hawaii Car Accident Lawyers Assisting Injured Residents And Visitors

Have you been injured in a motor vehicle accident on Oahu or a neighboring island? Did someone stop suddenly in front of you on the highway to look at something, causing a multicar crash? Was a road construction project inadequately marked, leading you to take a nasty spill on your motorcycle? Were you simply in the wrong place at the wrong time while vacationing?

Traffic in Hawaii can be bad whether you are downtown, commuting to or from work, heading to the North Shore to watch the surfers or just seeing the sights. Honolulu has been ranked as having some of the worst traffic among major American cities, making it a hazardous place for visitors to drive. Sadly, automobile accidents are far too common in the Aloha State. If you have suffered an injury due to another’s negligence or mistake, seek the help of an experienced personal injury attorney.
