Erick B. Novik, Esq.

Encino Drowsy Driving Accident Lawyer

A late-night drive home on the 101 Freeway or an early morning commute down Ventura Boulevard should not end in tragedy simply because another motorist fell asleep at the wheel. Drowsy driving is just as dangerous as drunk driving, severely impairing a driver’s reaction time and judgment. When an exhausted driver loses focus, drifts across lanes, or fails to brake at a red light, the resulting high-speed impact frequently causes catastrophic injuries.

Insurance companies know that driver fatigue is incredibly difficult to prove. There is no breathalyzer test for sleep deprivation. Corporate adjusters will eagerly use this lack of obvious physical evidence to deny liability, blame the crash on something else, and offer a cheap settlement that leaves you drowning in medical debt.

At NOVIK LAW GROUP, we know exactly how to uncover the truth. If you need a fierce drowsy driving accident attorney in Encino, our dedicated legal team is ready to hold exhausted drivers and their stingy insurance providers completely accountable. We fight aggressively for your maximum financial recovery so you can put all your energy into healing.

Proving the “Invisible” Crime

Unlike a DUI, fatigue leaves no chemical trace at the accident scene. Building a winning case requires relentless investigation. Our legal team digs deep to secure cell phone records, subpoena work timecards to prove exhaustion, and analyze the physical crash data. We look for a distinct lack of skid marks, which strongly proves the driver was asleep and never even attempted to hit the brakes before impact.

You are already dealing with the trauma of a major collision and mounting hospital bills. You should not have to worry about paying for elite legal representation. We handle your entire case on a strict contingency fee basis. You pay absolutely nothing out of pocket, and we only collect a fee if we successfully win a settlement or jury verdict in your favor.

Recovering from a severe crash takes time and immense physical effort. We step in to take over the chaotic aftermath. From dealing with aggressive claims adjusters to coordinating with your medical providers and auto repair shops, we handle all the stressful logistics.

Frequently Asked Questions

Learn more by reading some of the most commonly asked questions we receive at our office.

It takes precise, aggressive legal footwork. We collaborate with accident reconstruction experts to analyze the crash dynamics. A driver who is awake will almost always swerve or brake right before a collision. A sleeping driver will not. We also investigate the driver’s schedule leading up to the crash, looking for grueling work shifts, late-night social media activity, or a history of sleep apnea.

Absolutely. Federal laws strictly regulate exactly how many hours a commercial trucker can drive before taking a mandatory rest break. If a fatigued big rig or delivery driver hit you in Encino, we will immediately audit their electronic logbooks to see if they or their employer violated federal safety regulations just to meet a delivery deadline.

Do not believe them. Insurers will constantly try to reframe the narrative of a crash to minimize their financial exposure. Never give a recorded statement to the at-fault driver’s insurance company. Call an experienced Encino personal injury lawyer immediately so we can preserve crucial evidence before it is destroyed or covered up.

A high-speed collision with a sleeping driver often results in massive medical bills and a long, painful road to recovery. We fight to secure total compensation for your current hospital bills, future physical therapy, lost income from missing work, property damage, and the profound physical and emotional pain you have been forced to endure.
