South Los Angeles Accident Lawyer – Jerry Jacobson | Watts, Crenshaw, Florence
“When I was injured at the factory near Central Avenue and Florence, everyone at my church told me ‘talk to Jerry, he’s known South LA forever.’ They were right – Jerry even found me at Hawkins House of Burgers to explain everything to me in Spanish. It wasn’t just my lawyer, it was like having an uncle who fights for you.“
– Rosa M., manufacturing worker, Watts
SOUTH LOS ANGELES ACCIDENT ATTORNEY – JERRY JACOBSON
I’m Jerry Jacobson, and my heart goes out to the people of South Los Angeles. For more than 32 years, I’ve walked these streets – from Watts to Crenshaw, from Florence-Firestone to Vermont Square. I know every dangerous corner of Vermont and Florence, I’ve had coffee at Dulan’s while listening to the concerns of my clients, and I’ve watched our community transform while maintaining its Latino soul.
I don’t just come to South LA when there’s a case. This is my community. I know the struggle of the worker who leaves at 5 AM for the factory in Commerce, the father who drives an Uber to support his family, the mother who works double shifts at MLK Hospital. I’ve been to the quinceaรฑeras at the Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza, I’ve prayed at West Angeles Church, and I’ve watched the Watts Towers grow as a symbol of our resilience.

SOUTH LOS ANGELES CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS
In over 32 years of serving the working community of South Los Angeles, I have had the honor of representing hundreds of Latino families who trusted me when they needed it most. Each testimony is a story of struggle, hope and justice won.
“I got hit at Vermont & Florence – Jerry got me $425,000.”
– Maria G., domestic worker, Florence-Firestone
“I was leaving my cleaning job at six in the morning when a driver ran a red light at Vermont and Florence. The blow was so bad that I was unable to work for months. I thought that because I didn’t have papers I had no rights, but Jerry explained every step to me in Spanish. He took care of everything: my treatment, the accident report and the insurance. He won my case and with the money I was able to pay for my therapies and send help to my family in El Salvador. Jerry was not only my lawyer, he was my voice when no one else would listen.”
“Warehouse accident – $680,000 total.”
– Carlos R., forklift operator, Watts
“I was injured at the warehouse where I work near Slauson and Central Avenue. The boss said I didn’t qualify for workers’ compensation. Jerry came to the site, took pictures, talked to my co-workers and found out that the company didn’t have adequate safety measures in place. He fought for me all the way. Thanks to him, I received $680,000 and full treatment for my back. Jerry even helped me find a specialist who spoke Spanish. I never imagined I would get so much attention and respect.”
“Fatal accident in Crenshaw – $1.3 million for my family.”
– Ana L., widow and mother, Hyde Park
“My husband was driving Uber when a drunk driver hit him on Crenshaw Boulevard. I lost the love of my life and was left with three small children. Jerry personally came to my home in Hyde Park, sat with us, listened to us cry and promised he would fight for justice. He kept his word. He sued Uber and the insurer, and secured $1.3 million to secure my children’s future. But more than that, Jerry was there every step of the way. He wasn’t just a lawyer; he was a human being who understood our pain.”
“Supermarket slip – $750,000 for my hip surgery.”
– Juana P., grandmother and resident of Leimert Park
“I fell in the supermarket near Vermont Square because the floor was wet and without a sign. I fractured my hip and couldn’t walk. I thought I was going to lose my independence. Jerry took my case without charging me anything at first, and in a few months he raised $750,000. Because of that I was able to have surgery, physical therapy and continue living on my own. He always called me to see how I was feeling. You can tell when someone does their job with heart.”
“Hit on bicycle on Florence Avenue – $520,000.”
– Miguel D., delivery driver, South Central LA
“I was hit while delivering packages on a bicycle along Florence Avenue. The driver fled the scene. Jerry got the security cameras and worked with LAPD to identify the responsible party. He got me $520,000 for my injuries and the time I was unable to work. Now I can ride my bike again, but with more caution and peace of mind that there are lawyers like him who do fight for working people.”
“Watts construction accident – $575,000.”
– Enrique T., construction worker, Watts
“I fell from a scaffold because the employer did not put the necessary protections in place. The company tried to blame me. Jerry investigated, brought in witnesses and proved it was negligence. He won my case and helped me get specialized medical care. I am now able to support my family while I recover. Not all lawyers come to the accident site, but Jerry did.”
