Danger Zones on the 101 Freeway: What You Need to Know

By Car Accident

Crash Statistics on US 101

In 2022, there were approximately 1,050 accidents reported on the 101 Freeway in the Los Angeles and San Fernando Valley areas. Of those, 743 involved injuries, and two were fatal. Around 60% of those crashes were rear-end collisions, which is significantly higher than California’s average. Other common crash types included sideswipes and vehicles hitting fixed objects.

These numbers highlight how frequently serious accidents occur on this busy stretch of highway and the unique risks drivers face.

Crash Hotspots Along US 101

Certain locations along the 101 are known for frequent and severe crashes. One of the most dangerous intersections is at US 101 and Wellsona Road in northern San Luis Obispo County. In just five years, this stretch saw 16 crashes, 14 multi-vehicle incidents, and 3 fatalities. Caltrans has since approved an undercrossing project at this intersection to prevent further loss of life.

Santa Clara County, especially around San Jose, is home to one of the deadliest segments of the 101 in the country. In southern California, dangerous stretches include the downtown Los Angeles corridor and the Hollywood area, particularly near the 405 and 134 merge points.

These crash zones are often characterized by high-speed traffic, sudden lane changes, and limited visibility during peak hours or foggy mornings.

Why These Locations Are So Dangerous

Several factors contribute to the danger along the 101 Freeway:

  • Rush-hour congestion, especially Friday afternoons

  • Frequent merging and lane changes near interchanges

  • Coastal fog and low visibility, particularly in northern or coastal regions

  • Construction zones that cause sudden slowdowns or confusion

  • Distracted and fatigued drivers commuting long distances

Each of these increases the chance of a high-speed, multi-vehicle collision—often with life-changing consequences.

What This Means for You as an Injured Freeway Crash Victim

If you have been hurt in a 101 Freeway accident, your case may involve multiple drivers, disputed fault, and complex insurance negotiations. These crashes often involve:

  • Chain-reaction collisions

  • Commercial vehicles or rideshare drivers

  • Speeding or aggressive lane changes

  • Delayed medical symptoms like whiplash or head trauma

Your claim may include compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and future care needs. But to recover fully, you will need strong evidence and someone who understands the unique nature of freeway crashes.

Why Hire Fielding Law

At Fielding Law, we have experience handling complex freeway crash claims, including those involving high-speed collisions, multiple vehicles, and difficult insurance negotiations. We know how to secure and preserve the evidence that matters, work with experts to reconstruct accidents, and fight back when insurance companies try to shift blame.

Arizona Drivers and Dangerously Dark Window Tint

By Car Accident, Motorcycle Accident, Pedestrian Accident, Truck Accident, Wrongful Death

Why Dark Tint Is a Real Danger

Arizona’s sunny skies make tinted windows a popular choice for drivers. While legal tint offers comfort and protection from the sun, overly dark or illegal tint can become a serious safety hazard. When tint blocks too much visibility, it can lead to preventable crashes, especially at night or in low-light situations.

If you were injured in a crash and believe that dark tint played a role, Fielding Law is here to help. We represent injury victims across Arizona and know how to hold negligent drivers accountable.

How Dark Tint Causes Accidents

Excessively dark tint can reduce a driver’s ability to clearly see their surroundings. It can also make it harder for others to anticipate what the driver will do. Some common dangers include:

  • Difficulty seeing pedestrians or cyclists, especially in crosswalks

  • Blind spots when changing lanes or backing up

  • Delayed reaction times due to limited visibility

  • Inability for others to make eye contact with the driver

  • Poor night visibility leading to swerving or late braking

Even small lapses in visibility can lead to life-changing injuries when drivers cannot react in time.

Arizona Window Tint Laws

Arizona law allows for window tint, but only within certain limits. The law focuses on how much visible light must pass through the glass, which is known as visible light transmission (VLT).

  • Front side windows must allow at least 33% of light in

  • Windshields may only have non-reflective tint above the AS-1 line

  • Rear side and rear windows can be darker but must not be overly reflective

  • Reflective tint must reflect less than 35% of light

If a driver violates these laws and causes an accident, the tint violation may be used as evidence of negligence.

Can You Sue After a Tint-Related Crash in Arizona?

Yes. If another driver’s excessively dark or illegal tint contributed to the crash, you may have a valid personal injury claim. Examples include:

  • A driver did not see you while making a turn

  • A driver backed out and hit your vehicle or bike due to blocked rear visibility

  • A driver ran a red light or failed to yield because their side view was obstructed

Any of these situations could point to tinted windows as a contributing factor.

How Fielding Law Investigates These Cases

When dark tint causes an accident, our team at Fielding Law acts quickly to preserve and examine all evidence. We may:

We build a case that shows the full impact of the other driver’s choices.

Why Hire Fielding Law

At Fielding Law, we know that even small vehicle modifications—like overly dark tint—can lead to serious consequences. When you are injured, you need a legal team that treats you like a person, not a file number. Our attorneys are kind, professional, and relentless in protecting your rights.

If you believe dark tint caused or contributed to your injuries, we are ready to help.

Labor Day Safety Matters

By Bicycle Accident, Boating Accident, Burn Injury, Car Accident, Catastrophic Injury, Dog / Animal Bite, Pedestrian Accident, Personal Injury, Personal Watercraft (PWC) Accident, Slip or Trip and Fall, Wrongful Death

Injuries on Labor Day Weekend

Labor Day should be a time of rest and celebration. Families in California and Arizona often attend parades, host backyard barbecues, or travel for a last summer getaway. Unfortunately, holiday festivities can create dangerous conditions. When people act carelessly, serious accidents may occur. Labor Day safety is important, but if you were injured because someone else was negligent, you may need legal support.

Common Holiday-Related Accidents

Road Trips and Travel

Holiday weekends often bring heavier traffic. Distracted or impaired drivers increase the risk of serious car, truck, or motorcycle crashes.

Rideshare Accidents

With more people using services like Uber and Lyft during the holiday, rideshare accidents may occur. Victims can face complex insurance issues when injured as a passenger or in another vehicle.

Boating Accidents

Holiday weekends fill lakes and rivers with recreational boaters. Operator inexperience, intoxication, and overcrowded waterways often lead to serious boating collisions.

Personal Watercraft (PWC) Accidents

Jet skis and other PWCs are popular on long weekends. High speeds and reckless operation can cause severe injuries in collisions or ejections.

Parades and Public Gatherings

Large crowds can create unsafe conditions. Pedestrian accidents, trampling, or slip and fall injuries may happen when safety measures are not followed.

Barbecues and Backyard Parties

Premises liability accidents can occur at private gatherings. Guests may suffer burns, slip and fall injuries, or dog bites when property owners fail to provide a safe environment.

Firework Incidents

Fireworks are a tradition during Labor Day weekend. Mishandling them can cause severe burns, vision damage, or traumatic injuries.

Pools and Water Activities

Drownings and near-drowning accidents are a tragic risk at parties or community pools. Lack of supervision or safety equipment often contributes to these accidents.

Labor Day Safety Tips

Even with the risks, there are ways to reduce the chance of an accident.

Driving Safety

Use a designated driver, stay alert on the road, and allow extra time for traffic.

Hosting Safety

If you are hosting, secure walkways, monitor grills and fire pits, and provide a safe space for guests.

Firework and Pool Safety

Follow local firework regulations, supervise children near water, and require life jackets during boating or pool activities.

Why Hire Fielding Law

If your holiday weekend ended with an injury, you do not need to face the aftermath alone. Fielding Law is here to provide guidance, support, and advocacy. Our team listens to your story, investigates the cause of your accident, and works to hold the negligent party accountable. We understand the physical, emotional, and financial toll an injury brings, and we are committed to standing by your side.

Can AI Replace Lawyers?

Can You Replace a Lawyer With AI?

Artificial intelligence tools like Chat GPT are gaining popularity. They can draft documents, explain legal concepts, and summarize laws. Some people now believe they can replace a lawyer with AI and handle legal issues on their own. This is misleading and risky. Legal cases require human advocacy, judgment, and compassion that AI cannot provide.

What AI Can and Cannot Do

AI Can:

  • Explain general legal ideas and procedures

  • Summarize statutes and regulations

  • Draft basic templates or documents

  • Suggest broad next steps

AI Cannot:

  • Provide personalized advice specific to your case

  • Investigate evidence or interview witnesses

  • Navigate complex California or Arizona laws

  • Represent you in court or negotiate with insurers

  • Offer strategy, empathy, or advocacy

Attempting to replace a lawyer with AI may result in missed deadlines, weak claims, or reduced compensation.

What Fielding Law Provides That AI Cannot

Personalized Legal Guidance

Our attorneys study every detail of your case and create strategies tailored to your circumstances.

Thorough Investigation

We gather evidence, interview witnesses, and build strong claims that AI tools cannot manage.

Negotiation and Advocacy

We handle insurance companies and opposing parties with proven negotiation skills and legal experience.

Courtroom Representation

If needed, we fight for you in court, file motions, and adjust strategies in real time.

Compassionate Support

We understand how stressful injuries are. Our team provides clear communication and empathy throughout the process.

Why Real Lawyers Matter

Legal representation requires strategy, adaptability, and human insight. Trying to replace a lawyer with AI leaves you without proper protection.

Why Hire Fielding Law

At Fielding Law, we combine experience, compassion, and skill to protect your rights. We fight for fair compensation and support clients every step of the way. Technology can assist, but it cannot replace a real lawyer.

What Is a Dram Shop?

By Car Accident, Personal Injury

A dram shop is a bar, restaurant, or business that serves alcohol. These laws allow injured people to hold establishments accountable when alcohol is served irresponsibly.

Each state handles dram shop liability differently. Both California and Arizona have unique laws that determine who can be held responsible and under what conditions.

Dram Shop Laws in California

California limits dram shop liability. Under Civil Code 1714, the person who drank the alcohol is usually responsible—not the person who served it. However, there are two important exceptions:

  • Serving Minors: A business may be liable if it knowingly serves alcohol to someone under 21 who later causes harm.

  • Serving Intoxicated Minors: A business that serves a clearly drunk minor can be held responsible if that minor causes a crash or injury.

So while California’s dram shop laws are strict, they do allow claims in cases involving underage drinking.

Dram Shop Laws in Arizona

Arizona provides broader protections for victims. According to A.R.S. § 4-311 and  § 4-312, a business can be liable if:

  • It knowingly serves alcohol to someone who is obviously drunk.

  • That person later causes injury or death.

In Arizona, bars and venues must stop serving guests who show signs of intoxication. If they continue, and harm follows, they can be held responsible.

Arizona does not usually hold social hosts liable. However, if a host knowingly serves alcohol to a minor, they may still face legal consequences.

Why Dram Shop Laws Matter

It is easy to blame only the drunk driver. But in some cases, a business played a role by overserving them. Dram shop laws allow victims to seek justice beyond the driver who caused the crash.

Holding a dram shop accountable can help victims:

Dram shop cases require clear evidence and a strong legal strategy. You must prove the establishment overserved alcohol or ignored obvious signs of intoxication.

Why Hire Fielding Law

At Fielding Law, we help victims of alcohol-related injuries find answers. We understand the differences between dram shop laws in California and Arizona. Our team investigates quickly and thoroughly to hold all responsible parties accountable.

Whether you were hit by a drunk driver or lost a loved one, we are here to help. We treat our clients with compassion and fight hard to protect their futures.

If you believe a dram shop played a role in your injury, contact Fielding Law or call 833.88.SHARK for a free consultation.

A Haboob or dust storm in the Arizona desert

Stay Safe During a Haboob

By Bicycle Accident, Car Accident, Motorcycle Accident, Pedestrian Accident, Personal Injury

What is a Haboob?

A haboob is a powerful type of dust storm that often happens in Arizona, especially during the summer monsoon season. The word comes from the Arabic word habūb, meaning “blasting.” These storms form when strong winds rush out from a collapsing thunderstorm. As the winds spread out, they pick up dirt and dust from the desert floor and push it forward in a massive, rolling wall.

Haboobs can rise thousands of feet high and stretch miles wide. They move quickly, reducing visibility to almost zero and creating serious dangers for anyone outside, on the road, or on a bike. That is why learning haboob safety tips is so important if you live in Arizona.

Why Haboobs are Dangerous

  • Visibility can drop to less than a few feet in seconds

  • Roads become slick with dust, sand, or debris

  • Breathing can become difficult for those with asthma or other conditions

  • Flying objects may cause injuries

Knowing the right haboob safety tips can make a major difference if you are caught in one.

Safety Tips if You Are Walking

If you are on foot when a haboob arrives, protect yourself right away.

  • Cover your nose and mouth with a cloth or mask to avoid inhaling dust

  • Protect your eyes with sunglasses or goggles if possible

  • Seek shelter inside a sturdy building

  • If no shelter is nearby, crouch low to the ground, cover your head, and wait for the worst part to pass

Safety Tips if You Are Driving

Drivers face some of the greatest risks in a haboob. Accidents are common because people panic or continue driving without being able to see.

  • Pull off the road as soon as possible

  • Turn off your lights and keep your foot off the brake so other drivers do not try to follow your taillights

  • Stay inside your vehicle with your seatbelt on until the storm passes

  • Avoid stopping in the middle of the road, which increases the chance of being rear-ended

Safety Tips if You Are Riding a Bike or Motorcycle

Cyclists and motorcyclists are especially vulnerable.

  • Dismount and move off the road immediately

  • Lay the bike down if necessary to prevent it from being blown over

  • Find shelter, or at least crouch low away from traffic and flying debris

  • Protect your mouth, nose, and eyes from dust

After the Haboob

Once the storm passes, use extra caution. Visibility may still be poor, and fallen trees, power lines, or debris may block roadways or sidewalks. Following haboob safety tips even after the storm can help reduce your risk of injury.

Why Hire Fielding Law

Haboobs can lead to serious accidents, especially on Arizona roads. If you or a loved one has been injured due to another driver’s negligence during or after a storm, Fielding Law is here to help. Our attorneys provide skilled, compassionate support and work to secure the compensation you deserve. Call 833.88.SHARK today for a Free Consultation.

Outdoor movie screen set up with 2 rows of chairs with trees in the background

Can You File a Claim If You Were Injured at a Free Outdoor Movie?

By Car Accident, Dog / Animal Bite, Personal Injury, Slip or Trip and Fall

Outdoor movies offer a perfect blend of cinematic magic and the natural beauty of the outdoors, making them the ultimate summer activity for friends and family. However, it is important to note that accidents can happen unexpectedly, and even relaxing activities like these can come with certain risks. Just because an event is free does not mean the organizers are free from responsibility if an attendee gets hurt.

Possible Negligent Parties

When an outdoor movie injury occurs, responsibility often falls on those who planned, hosted, or maintained the event space. Potentially liable parties may include:

  • The Event Organizer – Typically, a private company or non-profit. They take on the important responsibility of planning the event, securing permits, coordinating vendors, arranging security, setting up equipment, and ensuring the safety of others. If they fail to take reasonable steps to prevent injury, they may be held liable.
  • The City or Municipality – If the event is held in a public park or city-managed location, the city or county may be partially responsible for maintaining the property. This includes lighting, landscaping, and repairing known hazards. However, when dealing with public entities, special rules apply. State and local governments are often protected by laws that limit when and how they can be sued. In Arizona and California, statutes such as the Arizona Notice of Claim statute or California’s Government Claims Act require specific procedures and tight deadlines. Failure to follow these rules can bar a claim entirely.

Common Negligence Scenarios

An outdoor movie injury can happen when safety is overlooked by event organizers, vendors, or property owners. Some of the most common causes of injury include:

  • Trip and Fall Hazards – Exposed electrical cords, uneven grass or pavement, and unmarked curbs can cause serious falls.
  • Insufficient Security – A lack of crowd control or security presence can increase the risk of altercations or other safety threats
  • Poor Lighting – Inadequate lighting around seating areas, walkways, and exits may lead to slips, trips, and other injuries.
  • Foodborne Illness – If food trucks or concession stands hired by the city or event organizer do not follow safety standards, guests may suffer food poisoning.
  • Dog Bites or Animal Attacks – Injuries from pets brought by audience members may be preventable with proper regulations and enforcement.
  • Sharp Objects in Grass – Debris, glass, or sharp hidden objects can injure barefoot guests or children playing on the lawn.
  • Parking Lot Accidents – Poorly lit or unmonitored parking zones increase the risk of pedestrian accidents and vehicle collisions.
  • Traffic Direction Failures – Lack of signage or staff can cause confusion, fender-benders, or even serious collisions.
  • Unsecured Equipment – Large screens, speakers, or projectors that are not properly secured may fall and cause injury.

Steps After an Outdoor Movie Injury

  • Seek Medical Attention – Even if the injury does not seem serious right now, it is still a good idea to see a doctor. Your health – both physical and emotional – matters and taking care of yourself should always come first.
  • Document the Scene – If you are able, take photos of the scene, and make note of your injuries, the weather conditions, and whether there were any warning signs present. It can also help to record the date, time, and exact location. All these details may feel a lot to take in, but they can be essential later as you begin to process what happened.
  • Find Out Who Is at Fault – Consult Fielding Law, and we can help you figure out the unknowns.
  • Contact Fielding Law at 833.88.SHARK – We are in your corner, ready to support you through the legal process so you can focus on healing. Our goal is to make your recovery as painless as possible.

Plaintiffs vs. Defendants

By Car Accident, Personal Injury

What Is a Plaintiff?

A plaintiff is the person who files a lawsuit. In personal injury cases, this is usually someone who has been hurt due to someone else’s negligence. At Fielding Law, we represent plaintiffs—the people who have been injured and are seeking justice and compensation for what happened to them.

Examples of plaintiffs:

The plaintiff is the one bringing the case to court or filing a claim to recover damages like medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering.

What Is a Defendant?

A defendant is the person, company, or entity being sued. In a personal injury case, this is usually the one who caused the harm—or their insurance company.

Examples of defendants:

  • A careless driver

  • A business that failed to fix a dangerous hazard

  • A camp or daycare that did not keep children safe

  • A dog owner whose pet attacked someone

The defendant’s goal is to avoid paying or to minimize the amount they have to pay.

What Does Fielding Law Do?

We only represent plaintiffs—people who were seriously injured because of someone else’s actions or carelessness. We do not defend at-fault parties, and we never represent insurance companies. Our job is to stand beside the injured person and fight for what they need to heal and move forward.

We believe in doing what is right. We listen, we build strong cases, and we do everything we can to help our clients recover—physically, emotionally, and financially.

Why Hire Fielding Law?

At Fielding Law, we are known for our kindness, professionalism, and relentless pursuit of justice. We take the time to understand what really happened, how it impacted you, and what it will take to make it right. You are not just another case file to us—you are a real person who deserves to be heard, respected, and supported.

If you have been injured and want to speak with a team who will treat you like family, contact Fielding Law or call 833.88.SHARK today.

stalled vehicle on a roadway

Stalled Car Caused Your Crash?

By Car Accident

What Happens When a Car Stalls on the Road?

A stalled vehicle in the roadway can be more than just an inconvenience—it can be a serious hazard. Whether it happens on a highway, at night, or around a blind curve, a stalled car can cause a chain reaction of danger. Drivers may not have enough time to react, leading to rear-end collisions, multi-car pileups, or vehicles swerving into oncoming traffic.

If you were involved in a car accident with a stalled vehicle in the roadway, you may be wondering who is at fault and what your options are. The answer depends on the circumstances of your crash and Fielding Law is here to help you make sense of it all.

Who Is Responsible for a Stalled Car Crash?

In many cases, the driver of the stalled vehicle may share responsibility for the crash, especially if they failed to:

  • Move the vehicle out of traffic (when possible)

  • Turn on hazard lights

  • Set up warning triangles or flares

  • Call for roadside assistance promptly

However, liability can also extend to others, such as:

  • Another driver who struck the stalled car and caused a pileup

  • An auto manufacturer if a mechanical defect caused the stall

  • A government entity if poor road design contributed to the accident

  • A tow company that delayed help or failed to secure the vehicle properly

These cases are not always clear-cut. Determining fault requires a detailed investigation, which is why working with a capable legal team is crucial.

What If You Hit a Stalled Vehicle?

You may assume you are automatically at fault if you hit a vehicle that is stopped in the road, but that is not always true. In both Arizona and California, liability is based on negligence. If the stalled driver failed to take proper precautions, or if you had no reasonable opportunity to avoid the crash, you may not be held fully responsible.

It is important to gather evidence from the scene, including:

This documentation can help prove who was truly negligent and protect your right to compensation.

What This Means for You as an Injured Party

If you were injured in an accident involving a stalled vehicle, you may be able to recover compensation for:

You do not have to carry the burden of medical bills and car repairs on your own. Even if fault seems unclear, you may still have a valid legal claim.

Why Hire Fielding Law

At Fielding Law, we understand how overwhelming accidents like these can be. A stalled car should not ruin your future. Our team will carefully investigate the crash, identify all potentially liable parties, and fight to secure the compensation you deserve.

You will never feel like just another case. We treat our clients with kindness, honesty, and respect, and we fight hard because your recovery matters.

If you were injured in a car accident with a stalled vehicle in the roadway, contact Fielding Law or call 833.88.SHARK for a free consultation. We are here to help you move forward.
