California Law Firm Expands Victim Services Amid Rising Accident Reports and Abuse Cases

The Wagner Law Group, a Fresno-based personal injury firm, is currently providing no-cost legal consultations through a dedicated hotline for accident victims across California. This initiative comes as the firm reports tracking numerous major and minor accidents weekly, including a recent fatal workplace incident where a man was killed while removing an oil rig in Fresno County. "We hear about accidents on a daily basis all over Fresno County. We encourage people to call our Victim Hotline to speak with an attorney for no cost," said Butch Wagner of The Wagner Law Group.

The firm's car accident attorneys also note a high frequency of motor vehicle accidents in the region, ranging from severe multi-vehicle collisions with ejections to less serious but traumatic incidents involving bodily injury, property damage, and emotional distress. "It is difficult for most people to understand their rights without consulting an attorney," added Aaron of The Wagner Law Group. The firm handles various cases, including auto accidents, wrongful death, pedestrian accidents, slip & falls, motorcycle accidents, and bicycle accidents, emphasizing that victims of others' negligence should seek legal guidance.

Beyond accident cases, the firm is actively representing victims of abuse at the Federal Correctional Institute in Dublin, California, where employees sexually and emotionally abused thousands over several years. The prison, now closed and infamously dubbed "The Rape Club," involved widespread corruption, including the warden. The Wagner Law Group's FCI Dublin sex abuse lawyers have secured over $100 million from the federal government for claimants, with many cases still unresolved. "There are many victims who have not come forward yet who were sexually and emotionally abused by prison staff at the women's prison in Dublin. We encourage those people to call the Victim Hotline," said Aaron.

Additionally, the firm serves as a premier fire attorney in California, assisting victims of wildfires like the Eaton Fire, which has caused significant property and emotional damage. "Wildfires burn more than land—they uproot lives, devastate communities, and leave victims with unfathomable loss," the firm stated, offering support for those affected. This expansion of services underscores the growing need for legal assistance in diverse victim scenarios, from workplace and road accidents to institutional abuse and natural disasters, impacting individuals and communities across the state.
