Crazy Friday - Car Crashes into Eranthe Law Firm’s Front Door

03/11/2012

 
Friday a car hit my office, collapsing the front of the building and causing it to be boarded up. There were no serious injuries. Police and Firefighters were able to remove the driver, the vehicle and the building’s occupants with little incident. This automobile crash into the office has caused temporary relocation.

Friday afternoon an automobile jumped the curb, drove over the sidewalk, drove through the landscaping and partially entered the front of San Rafael’s Eranthe Law Firm. The impact collapsed the front of the building shattering the windows and door glass. Police and Firefighters were on the scene and assisted the driver in exiting the vehicle. They also removed the doors so that the attorney, staff and clients could exit the building. No one was seriously injured in the accident, which occurred at the corner of Las Gallinas and Miller Creek Road.

Later that afternoon the front of the building was securely boarded up. Please know that business will continue as usual. Until the building damage can be repaired our client appointments will be held in the offices of Derryck J. Dias & Associates at 280 Miller Creek Road, San Rafael, CA 94903. This location is conveniently located across the parking lot from the Eranthe Law Firm offices at 2400 Las Gallinas Avenue, Ste 260B.
