What types of personal injury cases do you handle?
We handle all major personal injury cases including vehicle accidents, truck collisions, construction site injuries, premises liability, wrongful death claims, and catastrophic injury cases throughout California.
How much does it cost to hire your firm?
We work on a contingency fee basis - you pay no legal fees unless we recover compensation for your case. Our initial consultation is completely free.
What should I do immediately after an accident?
Seek medical attention, document the scene with photographs, collect witness information, and contact our firm before speaking with insurance companies to protect your legal rights.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim?
California's statute of limitations is generally two years from the injury date, but exceptions exist for minors and government claims. Contact us promptly to ensure timely filing.
Can I afford quality legal representation?
Yes, our contingency fee arrangement means you pay nothing upfront. We only collect fees after successfully recovering compensation through settlement or trial verdict.
