PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER 

 

Do You Need an Injury Lawyer?

Most car accidents result in minor car damage and little personal injury.  However we have seen cases where even a 2 mile an hour impact has caused injuries that resulted in a six figure verdict for our very vulnerable client.  Larger impacts can cause long term injuries that are not readily apparent.  It is prudent to consult a local personal injury attorney to review your case and help guide you through the post accident process.

CONSIDER SOME CASES WHERE A LAWYER WAS NEEDED

Who is at Fault in the Accident?

Scenario # 1: A driver was carefully driving near Nordstrom's in Walnut Creek.  A pedestrian on his cell phone didn't look and walked into the street.  The good driver slammed on his brakes.  The pedestrian was fine but the car behind couldn't stop and hit the good driver from behind.  The insurance company for the other driver claimed “no fault” and blamed the entire incident on the pedestrian.   This person needed a lawyer.

Scenario # 2:  The driver waited at a red light.   The driver's car was a Tesla which is very fast from a dead stop.  As he crossed, someone who just missed the yellow plowed into him.  The insurance company wanted 50-50 fault claiming that the Tesla was too quick to enter the intersection and that its insured had entered just as the light was turning red.   This person needed a lawyer. 

What an Good Personal Injury Lawyer Will Do

  1. Document Who is at Fault

Memories fade and witnesses can be hard to find.  A top private investigator can locate witnesses, take pictures of the accident scene, your car, the other person's car and document who is right and who is wrong.   

As an example, when our client on a motorcycle was struck by a car, we obtained this Car vs Motorcycle Accident Video within days of the accident.  Had we delayed it would have been erased.  In the end our client received over $ 3 million dollars.

2. Preserve Injury Information

Personal Injury lawyers will develop proof that your injuries were caused by the accident.  Sometimes you have an existing injury that the accident makes worse.  Insurance companies strongly resist paying for what they call “pre-existing" injuries even though the law makes them responsible for taking a bad situation and making it worse.  Also, your day to day losses are real - you are suffering day to day.  When cases settle the actual “pain and suffering” is often swept under the rug.  A top personal injury law firm preserves evidence of the day to day and makes certain you are compensated for this type of suffering.

3. Medical Care

Your normal primary care provider, Urgent Care or the Emergency Room are good places to start for car accident treatment.  But what if you suffered a concussion?  That needs to be documented and a simple entry in the medical chart “Possible Concussion” is not as effective as a full evaluation by a concussion expert.  We can assist in finding medical experts who can document your injuries so that a year later there is no question that you were truly hurt and that this accident was the cause.  We can also work with your health care provider to make sure that your injuries are fully documented in their records.

    “Tough, humble, has integrity - simply THE best.”
    Tough, humble, has integrity - simply THE best. With Dan it is not so much about the money but about doing what is right. A very rare breed. He has honesty and integrity and the jurys see it. If he doesn't believe in the case or the client he won't waste your time or his. But you better listen to him!...Believe an trust in him. I did and I am totally indebted to him. He is "The best of the best." Thank you Dan for all you have done and continue to do. Carole~ Arbuckle v. Board of Chiropractic Examiners

    “We went to trial and he was in control of the courtroom. He was totally prepared.”
    He told me that he hadn't lost a trial in a long time and he didn't want mine to break the streak. I didn't either! We went to trial and he was in control of the courtroom. He was totally prepared. But I was still worried because the prosecutor was very good as well. Daniel was confident but honest. The jury really liked him. As you can tell, he won my case because I am here, writing this review. Thank you.
