How May We Help You?
How Can You Make the Most of Your Initial Consultation?
A consultation is a chance to get to know a lawyer and receive their opinion on your case. As a client, it is essential to be honest with your lawyer so they fully understand your situation. All communication between a client and a lawyer is confidential, and you can speak without reservation. Hiring the right personal injury lawyer is vital to the success of your case, so you should aim to learn more about them and how they can help you. Some helpful questions to ask include:
- Do you have experience with cases like mine? Did they go to trial, and if so, what were their outcomes?
- What is a typical settlement for a case like mine?
- How do you and your law office communicate with clients?
- How do you structure your fees?
- What is your honest opinion of my case?
What Types of Compensation Can a Personal Injury Lawyer Secure for Clients?
Personal injury lawyers fight to help clients recover fair compensation for their losses. The compensation can include economic and non-economic damages endured by the accident victim. The damages that victims may be compensated for in a personal injury lawsuit include:
- Medical bills
- Lost income
- Property replacement or repair
- Rehabilitation costs
- Pain and suffering
- Mental anguish
- Scarring and disfigurement
If the case goes to trial and the court determines that the defendant’s actions were malicious or egregious and merit extra financial compensation for the accident victim, punitive damages can also be awarded.
FAQs
How Do California’s Comparative Negligence Laws Impact Your Ability to File a Claim?
California operates under pure comparative negligence laws. Under these laws, anyone involved in an accident that is not 100% responsible can seek compensation from the other parties for their losses. However, the victim’s compensation is reduced by the amount of fault assigned to them. For example, a person with $100,000 worth of damages that is 80% at fault for an accident would only be eligible to collect $20,000 from the other party.
The insurance company will often try to use comparative negligence laws in their favor by claiming the victim shares more fault in the accident, which reduces the amount the insurance carriers have to pay for medical care and other damages. An experienced personal injury attorney can help you fight back against these claims and collect the damages you are entitled to.
