What do I say to an insurance adjuster who calls me?
We are here to assist you in assessing your damages and advocating for your rightful compensation. If you are contacted by an adjuster before securing legal representation, there's no need to worry. If you are currently in the process of hiring an attorney, simply inform the adjuster that you will be in touch after you have retained counsel. Should you choose not to retain an attorney, it is crucial to gather all pertinent information for your claim before engaging in negotiations with any insurance adjuster.
How much is my personal injury case worth?
Many clients ask, What is my case worth? The answer varies because every Personal Injury claim is unique, hinging on the injuries caused by the defendant's negligence. While exact treatment costs are hard to predict, factors like the strength of evidence and any fault of the plaintiff influence the case's value. Cases typically involve economic damages (out-of-pocket expenses like medical bills and lost earnings) and non-economic damages (such as pain and suffering, which are harder to quantify but depend on evidence and the accident's severity). Understanding these distinctions helps in seeking fair compensation for the harm endured. Call our office to schedule an appointment with one of our attorney’s to discuss your case.
What is the deadline for filing a Personal Injury claim?
A statute of limitations sets a deadline for filing different types of Personal Injury lawsuits. In California, the statute of limitations for Personal Injury claims, including those for motor vehicle accidents, dog bites, slip and falls, wrongful death cases, and product liability claims, is two years.
How do I choose the right attorney for my case?
Selecting a Personal Injury lawyer involves finding someone you trust to manage your case. The key is to meet with several attorneys, gauge their personalities, and determine if their values align with yours. Ultimately, it's a personal decision based on your preferences.
