Riverside Personal Injury Lawyer

Leer en español

Tafreshi Law Group’s Riverside office is at 4121 Brockton Ave, Suite 101, in the 92501 ZIP code. We help injured people across Riverside, Corona, Moreno Valley, Jurupa Valley, Eastvale, Norco and the rest of the Inland Empire. If you need a Riverside personal injury lawyer after a crash on the 91, 60 or 215 — or on Magnolia, University, Market or Arlington — call or text any hour.

Riverside is the county seat and one of the Inland Empire’s largest cities. Downtown streets around the Mission Inn and the courthouse mix pedestrians, buses and cars. UC Riverside brings weekday campus traffic. Freeway ramps feeding the 91, 60 and I-215 have short merge lanes, frequent lane changes and truck traffic.

Freeways and Streets Where Crashes Happen

State Route 91, State Route 60 and Interstate 215 cut through or border the city. Short ramps, lane changes and truck traffic are typical on these freeways.
Magnolia Avenue, University Avenue, Brockton Avenue, Market Street and Arlington Avenue move local traffic toward downtown, UCR and residential neighborhoods.
Downtown near the Mission Inn and the courts mixes foot traffic, bikes, buses and parking-lot exits.

Freeway crashes are usually investigated by the CHP Riverside Area, 8118 Lincoln Ave., (951) 324-7210 (that office lists I-15, I-215, SR-60, SR-91, SR-71 and SR-74). Crashes on city streets usually go to the Riverside Police Department. Keep the incident number the officer gives you — it speeds up the report request.

Magnolia Avenue is a long east–west arterial through Riverside — past shopping, medical offices and neighborhood streets — and it connects drivers toward the 91 and downtown. Crashes here are usually Riverside Police matters unless they spill onto the freeway. Photograph the nearest cross street (for example Brockton, Arlington or Tyler) before cars are moved if you can do so safely.

Getting a Riverside Police Crash Report

Riverside has its own police department. For traffic collision reports:

Records: (951) 826-5700 — ask for crash reports.
Counters (among others): 4102 Orange Street, Riverside, CA 92501; and 10540 Magnolia Ave, Ste B, Riverside, CA 92505.
Non-emergency: (951) 787-7911. Dial 911 for emergencies.

City materials and vendor guidance commonly describe reports as ready in about 10 business days. Riverside Police Department fee schedules list traffic incident reports around $20; LexisNexis online copies may add a separate processing fee. CHP freeway reports use form CHP 190 (commonly $10 for reports of 1–25 pages) or the online portal.

Car Accidents on the 91, the 60 and I-215

Many people who call our Brockton Avenue office were hurt in a car accident on a Riverside freeway or a city street. The first practical steps are to get the right report and to identify every insurance policy that may apply:

On SR-91, SR-60 or I-215: the CHP Riverside Area office, 8118 Lincoln Ave., (951) 324-7210, usually writes the report. Request it with form CHP 190 or through the CHP portal.
On city streets such as Magnolia, University, Brockton, Market or Arlington: Riverside Police usually writes it. Records: (951) 826-5700.
Your own uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage may help if the other driver had little or no insurance, or left the scene. For a hit-and-run, report it to Riverside Police or the CHP within 24 hours to protect that claim.
Pure comparative fault: you can usually still recover if you share some of the blame, minus your share. We can’t promise any amount or result.
