How much does it cost to hire your law firm?

We work on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay nothing upfront and we only get paid if we win your case. Our fee is typically a percentage of the settlement or verdict amount. During your free initial consultation, we'll explain our fee structure in detail and answer any questions you may have about costs.

How long will my personal injury case take?

The duration of a personal injury case varies depending on several factors, including the complexity of the case, the severity of injuries, and whether the case settles or goes to trial. Some cases may resolve in a few months, while more complex cases might take one to two years. We work diligently to resolve your case as efficiently as possible while still fighting for the maximum compensation you deserve.

What types of compensation can I recover in a personal injury case?

In a personal injury case, you may be eligible to recover various types of damages, including medical expenses (past and future), lost wages, loss of earning capacity, pain and suffering, emotional distress, property damage, and in some cases, punitive damages. Our experienced attorneys will evaluate all aspects of your case to ensure we pursue every form of compensation available to you under California law.

Should I talk to the insurance company after an accident?

We strongly recommend that you do not speak with the other party's insurance company without legal representation. Insurance adjusters are trained to minimize payouts and may use your statements against you. If you've been contacted by an insurance company, politely decline to give a statement and contact our firm immediately. We will handle all communication with the insurance companies on your behalf to protect your rights and interests.

What if I was partially at fault for the accident?

California follows a "pure comparative negligence" rule, which means you can still recover compensation even if you were partially at fault for the accident. However, your recovery will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you are found to be 20% responsible for the accident, you can still recover 80% of your damages. Our attorneys work to minimize any finding of fault on your part to maximize your compensation.
