WHAT ACCIDENTS CAN AN TORRANCE PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER HELP ME WITH?

Our personal injury attorneys help people who have been injured in a variety of situations. If you or your loved one were hurt and someone else may be to blame, we’d like to speak with you.

Don’t put off contacting us because you’re not sure who exactly is responsible. As experienced personal injury attorneys in Torrance , determining negligence is part of what we do. We can discuss the specifics of your case during your free, no-obligation consultation.

Many of our clients come to us after being injured in a car accident, slip and fall accident, or truck accident. We also help grieving family members pursue wrongful death claims.

CAR ACCIDENTS

Car accidents are a common cause of personal injuries. In fact, the majority of drivers will experience three to four crashes during their lifetime.

SLIP AND FALL ACCIDENTS

All property owners have a responsibility to keep their premises safe and in good repair. We help people who were injured in a slip and fall accident at a:

  • Grocery store
  • Municipal park
  • School
  • Sports stadium
  • Shopping mall
  • Restaurant

Slip and fall accidents can happen virtually anywhere.

TRUCK ACCIDENTS

Ventura Freeway/U.S. Highway 101 passes through Torrance . This roadway is commonly used by semis and other commercial trucks. In an accident, a semi truck is no match for a car, motorcycle, or passenger truck. Truck accidents often involve serious and life-altering injuries.

WRONGFUL DEATH

If you’re reading this after the death of a loved one, our heart goes out to you. Not only are you grieving, but your life has changed overnight. You may be worried about how you will get by after your loved one’s death.

The California Code of Civil Procedure § 377.60 outlines who can pursue a wrongful death claim. You may be eligible to file a wrongful death lawsuit if you are the deceased’s:

  • Spouse or domestic partner
  • Child or stepchild
  • Parent or guardian
  • Other individuals who may “be entitled to the property of the decedent by intestate succession”

A wrongful death settlement can make life going forward a little easier.

WHAT ARE THE MOST COMMON PERSONAL INJURIES IN TORRANCE?

WHIPLASH

Whiplash is a soft tissue injury to the neck. It is a common car accident injury, as a sudden acceleration or deceleration forces the neck forward or backward.

TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY

A traumatic brain injury (TBI) can be one of the most life-altering personal injuries. Individuals with a TBI may experience mood and personality changes, hearing and vision impairment, and memory problems. Those with severe TBIs may require around-the-clock assistance.

BROKEN BONES

Broken bones are a common accident injury. Many people will experience broken hand, wrist, and arm bones because they attempt to brace themselves during a fall or a car crash.

INTERNAL INJURIES

Internal injuries can be life-threatening but aren’t always immediately noticeable. These types of injuries can include internal bleeding and organ damage.

DO I NEED AN TORRANCE PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEY?

Most individuals—especially those who are recovering from serious injuries—are no match for an insurance company and its team of attorneys. And, the insurance companies know that. They will try to say that your accident was entirely your fault and that they owe you nothing.

You may not have the time, resources, or knowledge to stand up to them. But, as experienced personal injury attorneys, we do.

WHAT DOES THE PERSONAL INJURY CASE PROCESS LOOK LIKE IN TORRANCE?

Most personal injury cases in Torrance play out in a similar way. You can expect the following steps during your case process.

1. HIRE AN ATTORNEY

Insurance companies are concerned with their profits, not your well-being. You need someone to look out for you and your best interests.

2. COLLECT EVIDENCE

Often, our clients come to us with the police report and possibly some photos of the accident scene. We dig deeper. If necessary, we’ll have experts reconstruct the accident scene. We may work on tracking down witnesses or obtaining surveillance camera footage.

3. DEMAND FOR SETTLEMENT

An adequate settlement is one that covers your current and future:

  • Medical bills
  • Lost income
  • Pain and suffering

Once we determine the true cost of your injuries, we won’t settle for less.

4. FILE INJURY LAWSUIT

Insurance companies tend to drag things out. They will likely not agree to our demand for settlement, so as a matter of course we will file a personal injury lawsuit.

5. DISCOVERY PHASE

During the discovery phase, we exchange information with the insurance company’s attorneys. Witnesses may be interviewed during a deposition.

6. MEDIATION

Mediation is often where the most time is spent. This is when we negotiate with the insurance company.

7. TRIAL

While most personal injury cases settle out of court, we prepare every case as if it’s going to trial.
