Secure Legal Representation From a Los Angeles Personal Injury Lawyer for Your Case

An insurance company will likely reach out to you and offer you a settlement. While you might be tempted to accept the offer, it is always better for you to reach out to us to negotiate with the insurance company.

Remember that the insurance company is in business to make money, and the insurance company does not make money by paying out claims. The insurance company will do everything possible to avoid paying you anything and try to use your words against you.

You need to ensure this does not happen, so you should secure a consultation with our team instead. Let our personal injury law firm negotiate with the insurance company on your behalf. It will help if you focus on getting better.

California Comparative Negligence

California is a comparative negligence state. What this means is that you could be partially blamed for the accident. Even if the accident is someone else's fault, they may only be responsible for 80% of the accident, which means you could be responsible for the other 20%. As a result, the size of your potential settlement could be reduced by 20%.

If you want to maximize the size of your compensation, you need to contact us for help. We can review your case and put it in the best position possible to be successful.

Proving Negligence in a Personal Injury Claim

For your personal injury claim to succeed, we must prove several elements. These are often referred to as the four Ds, and our personal injury lawyers will have to prove all of them if we want to recover compensation from personal injury claims on your behalf.

Some of the most important elements include:

Duty of care owed

First, we must prove that the other person somehow owed you a duty of care. For example, if you are using a specific product, you must prove that the company owes you a duty of care by providing a safe product experience. We will prove this will vary from case to case, so you must schedule a case consultation with us as quickly as possible.

Duty of care breached

Then, we must show that the duty of care was somehow breached. For example, someone operating a motor vehicle is responsible for operating it safely to protect himself and those around him. We may be able to prove that the other driver breached that duty of care in some way by driving drunk or distracted.

We may be able to prove that the other driver breached that duty of care in some way by driving drunk or distracted.

Damages suffered

Finally, we must prove that you have suffered some damage. Just because an accident occurred doesn't necessarily mean you deserve compensation. We will have to show that the accident harmed you in some way.

For example, we can show that you suffered damages because you now have medical expenses and repair bills you must cover.

California Statute of Limitations for Personal Injuries

If you are interested in filing a personal injury claim, there is a statute of limitations within which you must file your claim. You only have two years to file a personal injury claim in CA from the accident.

If you wait too long to file a claim, your personal injury lawsuit might not go through, even if it would otherwise have been successful. You must contact us to schedule a case consultation as quickly as possible.

What to Do After Suffering a Personal Injury in Los Angeles, CA

So, if you have suffered a personal injury in Los Angeles, what are a few of the most critical steps you must follow? You might have a lot going through your mind, but some of the essential steps to follow include the following:

Be careful with social media:

It will help if you report the accident to someone. For example, if you visit a local business, you must notify the accident to the business owner. If you are involved in a motor vehicle accident, you must contact the police to report the accident to them. You need to establish a paper trail of the accident, or it will be like it never happened.

Gather information.

It would be best if you started gathering information about everything that happened in the accident. One of the best ways to do so is to take out your phone and take pictures and videos.

The accident scene can change very quickly, and we need to make sure we understand what it looked like at the time of the accident.

Get medical care.

You might feel fine after the accident but must seek medical care quickly. You might feel like you were not hurt, but adrenaline could be going through your body, masking many of your symptoms.

The longer you wait to see a doctor, the harder it will be for us to prove that the accident was the direct cause of your injuries.

Avoid speaking about your case.

Even though you might get tempted to talk to other people about your case, you need to avoid discussing it with other people.

Remember that the other side will look for any inconsistencies in your story to disprove your claim, and if you talk about it with other people, you might make mistakes that could jeopardize your claim.

Contact a personal injury lawyer.

Finally, you need to contact a personal injury attorney who can help you. We have significant experience dealing with personal injury cases, and we can look at your case to see if you are entitled to compensation. We would be happy to offer you a free consultation, so give us a call today to schedule an appointment.

Compensation You Could Get for a Personal Injury in Los Angeles

If you get injured in an accident in Los Angeles, we can recover various damages on your behalf.

Some of the most common examples include the following:

We can pursue compensation to help you cover your medical expenses after an accident.

If you require ongoing care, we can also pursue compensation to cover your future expenses.

If you have suffered property damage somehow, we can file a personal injury claim to cover the cost of your property damage.

If you have suffered emotional distress, pain, and suffering due to your accident, we might be able to pursue additional compensation for you.

If you cannot return to work for some time, we can pursue compensation to replace lost income.

If the circumstances of the accident were extremely severe, we could pursue punitive damages on your behalf as well.

Every case is different, and you want to maximize your compensation. The easiest way for you to do so is to reach out to us to schedule a case consultation as soon as possible.

Make sure you talk to your doctor first. Then, after your injuries have been treated, schedule a case consultation with a member of our team.
