WHAT A FAIRFIELD PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEY WILL DO FOR YOU

Most injury cases begin with a claim filed with an insurance company. Unfortunately, if you try to negotiate for yourself, you’ll likely be met with tactics designed to wear you down so that you’ll settle for less than your case is worth. When you retain us as your personal injury attorneys, we will:

  • Investigate your accident thoroughly, consulting with qualified experts and preserving evidence to strengthen your claim
  • Locate witnesses and get their testimony on record
  • Build a legal case to establish the defendants’ fault
  • Protect you from procedural errors, such as missed filing deadlines that can derail your case
  • Negotiate with the insurance company from a position of strength
  • Sue all negligent parties if necessary

We will give your case meticulous handling and keep you thoroughly informed of its progress.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?

The legal services we provide cost you nothing upfront, since our attorneys work on a contingency fee basis. We finance your case and take a percentage of the settlement or court verdict when the case concludes.

DAMAGES YOU MAY BE ELIGIBLE TO COLLECT

If another person is responsible for your injuries, you are entitled to compensation for all your losses, including:

  • Medical bills, present and future
  • Lost earning, present and future
  • Pain and suffering

As your attorneys, we calculate your damages comprehensively to help you receive the maximum amount possible.

HOW LONG DO YOU HAVE TO SUE?

California’s statute of limitations allows two years from the date of your accident, or the discovery of your injury, to file a lawsuit. If any victim is a minor, the two-year period does not begin until they reach age 18. However, getting started immediately gives your attorney the best opportunity to prepare an effective case.
