Millions recovered monthly for our injured Clients

Our personal injury law firm recently represented a client in a significant case involving a traffic collision cause by a DUI Driver. Our Client was driving through an intersection on a green light when the defendant driver ran a red light at high speed and crashed into our client’s vehicle. The defendant driver fled the scene and was later apprehended and charged with felony DUI and hit and run.

Although our client’s vehicle was destroyed by the impact of the collision and she was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment, she luckily only suffered minor physical injuries consisting of neck and back strain and bruising. After a short course of chiropractic treatment our client fully physically recovered. However, the trauma of the collision caused an onset of emotional and psychological symptoms that our client continues to deal with to date. After submitting demands to the defendant and client’s insurance companies, we secured a combined settlement of $65,000 for our client. Our client was extremely happy with both the speed of her settlement and the amount of money she received for her car accident injury claim.

This case showcases our expertise in handling complex vehicular accident cases in litigation. In 2020, our client, a farm equipment transporter, suffered a devastating rear-end collision in Fresno by a commercial truck. This mishap, unfortunately, led to severe injuries and escalating medical bills reaching over $100,000.

With the defendants had $1million in insurance through State Farm, they stubbornly resisted any fault, pointing towards alleged brake light issues on our client’s trailer. Recognizing the potential challenges, our experienced accident attorneys quickly sprung into action. As the impending jury trial approached, we strategically proposed a $325,000 settlement. An ace up our sleeve was the careful citation to the California Vehicle Code to highlight that our client’s trailer was, in fact, compliant with only having reflectors. Faced with our detailed legal groundwork, the defendants conceded, accepting our proposed settlement terms.

With our legal expertise and tenacity, our client found not only financial relief but also avoided the potential hardships of a jury trial.

This case involved a victim of a rear-end collision by a truck, leading to serious injuries including trauma to the neck, back, and hips. Furthermore, post-collision, the victim manifested symptoms suggestive of a traumatic brain injury – from memory loss and blurred vision to heightened anxiety and sensitivity to noise.

Challenges arose when the third-party insurance adjuster disputed the severity of injuries based on low property damage. The adjuster insisted that prior injuries, rather than the recent collision, were to blame for the victim’s pain and suffering. Consequently, their initial offer was a mere $13,000.

Given our experience with similar car accident cases, we recognized the need for a higher settlement due to the extensive injuries and symptoms experienced by our client. We tirelessly advocated against the insurance company’s claims, emphasizing the severe impact the accident had on our client’s quality of life.

After intense negotiations, we managed to secure a settlement almost triple the initial offer. As an experienced car accident and personal injury law firm, we understand the importance of being persistent with insurance companies. And our persistence paid off. Needless to say, our client was very happy with the results.

When our client was rear-ended by a commercial truck the impact was huge but thankfully severe injuries were avoided. Nevertheless his injuries were significant enough to warrant an ER visit chiropractic care, specialist visits, and MRIs which revealed small spinal issues. Despite his injuries, the insurance company low-balled us with a $35,000 offer. We pushed back with a $100,000 demand arguing the crash’s intensity, our client’s pain and suffering, his young age, and the potential for future spinal issues warranted a much larger settlement. Our persistence paid off and we ultimately secured a $80,000 settlement. Our client was able to walk away with over half of that in his pocket after his medical bills and attorneys fees. This was a huge win and showcases our firm’s ability to turn the tables on those low-ball insurance offers.

In a case involving an Uninsured Motorist (UM) claim, our dedication and expert negotiation tactics were put to the test. Our client was initially presented with an offer of $23,045 from his own insurance company. However, after assessing his medical expenses, which totaled approximately $15K from chiropractic treatments, MD consultations, and MRI scans, we believed in securing a better outcome. Discussions with his insurance company remained complex, especially regarding our client’s future medical needs. We were able to breakthrough the stalemate by highlighting the potential need for surgery. Our client was a medical student so this would have significantly impacted his studies. We were able to facilitate a critical consultation with a spinal surgeon to get our client a second opinion. Armed with this additional surgery recommendation, we were able to successfully secure the full policy limits for our client. This case exemplifies our firm’s commitment to obtaining the best possible outcomes for our clients and highlighting our meticulous approach that leaves no stone-unturned.

Our firm recently represented an Uber driver who was rear-ended by a large GMC truck. The property damage was very minor, but the impact was severe as confirmed by dash-cam footage our client wisely had. This video showed our client’s body strongly jerking forward and then backwards due to the force, resulting in significant whiplash and subsequent neck and back pain. Despite the clear evidence, Geico denied the claim, asserting the property damage was too minor to cause such injuries.

We kept fighting, stressing the dash cam footage to the adjuster, highlighting its clear depiction of the incident and its resulting injuries. Remarkably, the claim was denied a second time, prompting us to escalate the matter and get the adjusters supervisor involved. We warned of a potential bad faith claim and possible involvement of the California Department of Insurance if they continued to deny responsibility. Ultimately, the supervisor finally caved and paid the policy limits. Our client was thrilled, especially considering the previous denials.

This case underscores that property damage is not always reflective of the injuries sustained and emphasizes the importance of persistent representation against insurance companies’ unreasonable decisions.

When our client became a victim of a drink-driving accident, she was faced with life-changing consequences. The trauma of a traffic light pole crashing onto her car during a stop at a red light resulted in severe physical injuries, significant emotional distress, and even Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). With medical bills totaling $29,000 and the at-fault party having a $50,000 policy limit, our client was initially offered a disappointing settlement of $20,107 by State Farm Insurance.

Our firm tenaciously advocated for the client and refused to accept the insurance company’s low-ball offer. We warned State Farm of potential bad faith and sent a detailed pre-suit letter outlining the potential ramifications of State Farm’s unreasonable and dismissive offers. We emphasized the gross undervaluation of our client’s claim.

In response, State Farm did a complete 180 and agreed to pay our client the full policy limits of $50,000. This case is testament to our relentless pursuit of the rightful compensation personal injury victims deserve. Our client felt vindicated, heard, and was very happy with the result.

Our client was struck from behind by a commercial vehicle, causing substantial damage and rendering her vehicle a total loss. She suffered severe back and neck injuries, including disc protrusions in her cervical and lumbar spine. Despite undergoing multiple treatments such as epidural injections and occipital nerve block injections, the pain persisted. She was advised to undergo a lumbar discectomy surgery, which factored into our calculation for future medical expenses.

Initially, the at-fault party offered a meager $50,000 settlement. But after aggressively litigating the case, we discovered several inconsistencies with the defendant driver’s testimony, raising serious credibility issues. After a short mediation with a private judge, we were able to successfully resolve the case for $500,000 settlement. Our client was ecstatic. This case highlights the importance of having a strong legal team in personal injury cases to ensure fair treatment and maximum compensation.

Our case of the month for April goes to a middle-aged woman who, who despite not expecting much from her settlement, received a settlement far exceeding her expectations. Initially, our firm secured a $17,000 settlement offer.  The client indicated that she would be happy with a $25,000 settlement.  However, after advising her we think her case is worth more, she placed her trust in our expert advice that allowed us to continue negotiating. The case ultimately resolved shortly after with a $40,000 settlement, more than double the initial offer.

Negotiations were both informal and formal, focusing on our clients pain and suffering, rather than her minimal property damage. We highlighted the emotional loss she suffered due to her inability to drive her nephew and niece to school because of persistent back pain – something that really brought joy to her life.  In these discussions, we built a friendly rapport with the third-party adjuster.  In the end, the case concluded with the client expressing deep satisfaction with the outcome and our guidance.  This case demonstrates the difference empathy and professional advocacy can make in a personal injury claim.

Our client was rear-ended by a construction company’s pick-up truck. Property damage photos showed minimal damage to her vehicle.

She suffered neck and back injuries, namely large disc protrusions in multiple levels of her cervical and lumbar spine. After much conservative care, one epidural injection, one medial branch block injection and two nerve root block injections to her lumbar spine, her pain continued and she was recommended a lumbar fusion surgery in 2021. She also received one PRP injection in her right elbow. Her past economic damages for past medical expenses totaled $70,647.10.

The at-fault party’s insurance company was had a $1m commercial policy limit. Their’ initial offer in this case was $49,574.

After filing the lawsuit and litigating the case for a little over a year, completing written discovery and depositions, the parties agreed to a private mediation. At the mediation, we noted that we intend to call the defendant driver as a hostile witness in our case-in-chief at trial for the purposes of impeachment. Defense’s top offer at mediation was $150,000.00. At the end of the mediation, the mediator made a written proposal to settle the case for $300,000.00. Within a week after, both parties agreed to accept the mediator’s proposal and settle the case for $300,000.00.

Needless to say, our client was thrilled with the settlement.

Our client was a back seat passenger in a major rear-end collision. The force of impact pushed the vehicle forward, causing a second collision with the car in front of them. Our client was rushed to the hospital by ambulance. After just one hospital visit, we sent our initial demand to the insurance company when they made a lowball offer of less than $23,000. We fought for our client to show his damages were worth much more. Ultimately, we were able to settle his case for the full $100,000 policy limits available.

Our client was driving through an intersection when another driver negligently made a left hand turn and caused a collision. Although the police report placed our client at fault for the accident, we fought the insurance company tooth and nail to prove that their client ultimately violated the California Vehicle Code and caused this collision. Unfortunately our client’s vehicle was a total loss and she sustained significant spine injuries. However, our client received medical attention to treat all of her injuries and in 5 short months we were able to secure her a $100,00.00 settlement without our client having to go to court.

Our client suffered an injury to the right knee because of repetitive lifting, climbing, bending, and squatting as part of his general labor job. He sustained a torn meniscus to the right knee and was also assaulted by a supervisor.

Our client was not happy with how he was being treated and wanted to settle his case so he could quit his job and undergo any further treatment with his own doctors. We helped our client get approved for the meniscus repair and get continued wage replacement benefits.

We were able to negotiate the inclusion of the value of a total knee replacement for our client should he need it in the future. Our team convinced the workers’ compensation doctor to include the necessity for a total knee replacement in his report and we used this report to settle our client’s case for $80,000.00. He was overjoyed about the settlement and happy to get out of the work environment where he felt he was not being taken seriously.

Our team assisted in getting our client the appropriate medical care, wage replacement benefits, the necessary surgery, therapy after he had the surgery, and a settlement that he was over the moon about.

Unfortunately he was involved in another accident not too longer after we represented him for the first one. Here, he was driving on the freeway when an air conditioner unit suddenly fell out of a moving truck, causing a huge pile-up accident. Many vehicles were involved, and our client’s vehicle was a total loss. After going to the emergency room, our client discovered he had a serious brain injury, a subdural hematoma. However, the insurance companies all wanted to deny liability and to point the finger at one another – the trucking company, the loading company, and even some of the vehicles involved. One of the cars that hit our client quickly agreed to pay their policy limits. Getting the trucking company to pay up was another story entirely.

After his initial treatment, our client was unable to return to the doctors for a variety of personal reasons. Although we kept in constant communication in the hopes that we could prove his injuries, a year ended up passing after just a few chiropractic and neurologist visits. After speaking with our client, it was determined that a repeat MRI was necessary. Since his personal circumstances had improved, we were able to get him a neurologist who ran the gamut with testing. With our clients’ treatment complete, we got in touch with the defense firm handling the case. Our attorneys took the lead in contacting the various law firms and getting everyone on board with mediation. After a single visit and follow up imaging, we were able to secure an additional $80,000 settlement with minimal treatment.

Our client was practically run over by a commercial truck on the street (not highway, interesting enough), rendering her vehicle a total loss.

Fortunately, client received conservative treatment was recommended imaging and underwent a facet injection. Her total meds were under $50,000.

During negotiations, our team focused on the property damage and the obvious psychological impact an motor vehicle accident of this magnitude would have on anybody (regardless of how young the client is or how “well” she’s physically recovering). Once we mentioned that we can’t wait to put these photos and our empathetic client in front of a jury and see what a reasonable juror thinks, the at fault party’s Insurance offered $162,500 to settle the case without wanting to us to fight them in court.

Our client was so moved and “speechless” (her words :)) with the speed and amount of settlement. We’re currently working on stretching her net comp as far as we can, it’s going to be a sizable amount.

This was a Workers’ Compensation (WC) and Personal Injury auto accident hybrid: our client was rear-ended (side/corner hit) on the highway while on the job. Although our client’s (work) vehicle had moderate damage, the defendant’s vehicle was a total loss. Client sustained a number of injuries, including neck injury, back injury, wrist injury, headache/head injury, and shoulder injury – primarily on his right side. He ultimately required about $29,000 in medical expenses, including MRIs (indicating up to 4.7mm spinal disc bulges on a younger client), neurological evaluations, and one lumbar epidural steroid injection.

We were quickly able to secure the at fault party’s policy limits.

The first party adjuster hired an “experienced” attorney to work against us. Initially, first party attempted to snake their way out of coverage by claiming the vehicle was a rental. We did our due-diligence, refused to blindly accept the denial, and let them know they need to get familiar with the facts of the case fast (clearly, they weren’t).

After establishing our ground, we secured an additional $45,000 in UIM exposure (of course, at no cost to our client) for a total settlement of $60,000 – a little over twice the meds without having to spend additional time or expense in mediation and/or arbitration.

Our WC team also knocked the case out of the park (compensating our client even further for his WC case) AND we successfully pushed to heavily reduce (if not fully waive) the WC lien. Our client was ecstatic!

Our client was stopped at a red light waiting to make a left hand turn when she was violently struck from behind by a negligent driver. The force pushed her vehicle into the center divider, causing her airbags to deploy. Our client was taken to the hospital via ambulance where her injuries were evaluated. Although the at fault driver only had a $15,000 policy, we were able to utilize our client’s own UM/UIM insurance policy for total compensation of $50,00.00.

Our client suffered an injury from his multiple years cleaning and driving a big rig. He also suffered additional injuries when his truck would bottom out from driving over large dips on the road.

The insurance companies fought tooth and nail on his firm and we were able to get him to see many different specialists in the field. He suffered a shoulder injury and knee injury that were not deemed surgical, in addition to a low back injury. Most of the body parts on his claim were disputed and there were three insurance companies fighting our client and dragging him in different directions.

We were able to intervene and discuss a great resolution of the claim for $80,000.00. Our client was very pleased with the result and he received three retraining vouchers, valued at a total of $18,000.00 worth of retraining benefits, with the ability to apply for an additional $5,000.00 cash stipend.

Our client suffered a low back injury while digging a trench. Medical treatment became disputed but we were able to push the matter forward and get our client treatment. Once treatment was completed the insurance company presented a lowball offer. We contested the medical reporting and were able to increase the settlement authority dramatically from $12,500.00 to $30,000.00 after negotiating with the insurance company. Our client also wanted to move on from his previous position and we were able to negotiate a retraining voucher so that our client could learn a new trade.

Our client was ecstatic with the result and the increase in authority that was obtained.

Our client was involved in a total loss collision, after a car suddenly swerved into his lane and sideswiped him, pushing him into a third vehicle. The at fault driver was arrested for driving under the influence. After being released from the hospital, he hired our office and was set up with conservative treatment. After few visits with specialists and no further recommended treatment, we submitted a policy limits demand to the carrier. A check for the full policy limits of $50,000 was delivered to our office in less than a month. Our client walked away with almost half of the total settlement.

Our client suffered an arm injury at work when an object struck them in the arm, causing a laceration with numbness and prolonged pain. By getting our client to a great doctor, they were able to get treatment, injections, and paid time off work. Our client continued to receive lost wages for time lost for the injury, physical therapy, and medical treatment through our doctors.

Eventually, an MRI of the left forearm revealed that our client would not need surgery. Our client also moved out of state for personal reasons and wanted to close their claim. We were able to settle for $30,000.00 with a voucher to be used for retraining, and our client was ecstatic about the result.

Our team is compassionate and able to work with any personal situations to make sure that your workers’ compensation claim is resolved to your maximum benefit!

Our client was the backseat injured passenger of a major rear-end auto accident caused by a commercial vehicle/semi-truck. The colossal impact caused irreparable damage to our client’s vehicle, rendering it a total loss. Aside from severe Collision-induced anxiety, our client suffered a fractured rib, neck injury, back injury, wrist injuries/pain, bilateral knee pain, R foot pain, and cervicogenic headaches.

She was initially rushed by ambulance to the ER and later underwent chiropractic treatment and a pain management evaluation.

Client was recommended MRIs of the cervical spine, lumbar spine, and right knee but firmly declined the imaging.

Fortunately, her rib ultimately healed on its own and with the right conservative treatment and care, She felt physically recovered. Her medical bills were only about $8,000.

After sending our initial demand, we were successful in pushing the initial $56,108 offer up to a $180,000 (nearly 3 times their initial offer) settlement without litigation.

Our client was very happy with the settlement and is going to walk away with a significant amount of the settlement. Her case was settled in less than a year.

Our Client was the passenger of a vehicle that was T-Boned by another vehicle that ran a stop sign. The police later determined that the driver of the other vehicle was driving under the influence and was not carrying insurance. Thankfully, the driver of our car carried UM/UIM coverage.

During the collision, our client sustained injuries to her neck, left shoulder, chest, low back, and a large skin tear on her right forearm. Moreover, the traumatic event caused her to develop such severe anxiety and emotional distress that, to date, she cannot talk about the accident without breaking down in tears. What’s worse — the skin tear left a large and unattractive scar on her arm that serves as a daily reminder of that tragic accident.

The insurance company’s initial offer was only $30,915.70, which was nowhere near sufficient to compensate her for emotional and physical trauma she suffered from. After we rejected the offer, and continued fighting, the insurance company tendered the policy limits of $100,000 six weeks later!

When we broke the news to our client, she was overcome with gratitude and broke down in tears. She is now looking into scar removal surgery and trauma therapy to help her overcome the trauma of the collision.

Our client was making a left turn lane when the other driver ran a stop sign and crashed into the back door of the driver’s side of his vehicle. We opened a claim directly with the defendant’s insurance company and wanted to handle his claim on his own. After complaining of severe headaches and neck pain that were becoming worse, the insurance company offered him a lowball offer to settle his claim. Our client realized he needed to hire someone to look out for his interests, so he called us. He knew he was not okay, and the insurance company did not care about him.

It turns out that he sustained several herniations in his cervical spine that were causing him such severe neck pain, upper back pain, and headaches that he couldn’t sleep, dress, or perform his job duties without difficulty. We were able to get our client the treatment he needed to recover. After he finished treatment, he could return to his daily activities without experiencing the debilitating headaches and neck pain he experienced following the accident.

His case ultimately settled for $36,500.00 without having to file a lawsuit. Our client was incredibly grateful and amazed by the settlement. For him, the most important matter was being able to receive the treatment he needed to get better. When the case settled, he was grateful for everything. He got the treatment he needed, and his case settled for far more than the insurance company initially offered him.

Our client was riding a scooter southbound at or near the intersection in Corona, California. At that same time, the defendant was at a t-intersection stop sign facing westbound. The defendant failed to keep a proper lookout and realize our client was crossing. As a result, the defendant collided with our client, which caused our client multiple injuries. Her treatment included numerous sessions with a chiropractor with pain in her neck, low back, left shoulder, and right wrist. She was also treated by a pain management doctor, where she complained of neck pain that radiated down into her shoulders and also radiated pain to her low back. Her cervical and lumbar spine MRI resulted in the loss of intervertebral disc height and disc protrusions.

She underwent a lumbar facet block for pain relief and recommended future pain management. In response to our demand, the carrier initially offered $24,750.00, below the medical specials. The insurance company increased its offer to $29,000.00 and stood firm at $30,000.00. We filed a lawsuit against the defendants and secured a $50,000 settlement within months.

After coming to a complete stop, our client was suddenly rear-ended by a landscaping truck. As a result of the Collision, she suffered from multiple cervical, thoracic, and lumbar herniations. After several rounds of cervical epidural injections culminating in radiofrequency ablations, she underwent cervical fusion surgery at C5-C7, with hardware placement, bone grafts, and decompression. Additionally, she received various lumbar epidural injections, also culminating in radiofrequency ablations.

After several rounds of negotiation we settled for their full $1M policy limits. After a couple of difficult years of doctors appointments culminating in surgery, our client is looking forward to purchasing her first home and starting her new life post surgery.

Our client was rear-ended on the 15 freeway during bumper-to-bumper traffic. Our client suffered multiple spine and neck injuries and aggravated other pre-existing injuries. With over $30,000.00 in medical bills, the at-fault driver’s insurance company made an initial lowball offer of $10,000.00 to settle the claim. We quickly convinced the driver’s insurance company to pay the entire $25,000.00. But the work was not done there. After getting the driver’s policy limits, we discovered that the vehicle owner had a separate insurance policy. As such, they could get their $25,000.00 policy limits as well for a total settlement of $50,000.00. We were able to turn a $10,000 offer to a $50,000 payment without having to file a lawsuit.

Our client was a flight attendant that fell while exiting a plane that was on the tarmac. Unfortunately, one of the ground crew did not place the exit stairs properly, which caused our client to fall out of the plane onto the ground. We were able to get her workers’ compensation medical care that took care of the surgeries that she had to undergo.

Our client wanted to move out of state because she was pregnant. Our client wanted to close out her case, and we were able to get the insurance company to waive almost $100,000.00 of liens, and offer a settlement of completely new money worth $95,000.00.

Our client was extremely pleased with the settlement and is now looking forward to life with her newborn child.

Client was making a left turn. Defendant ran the red light. The insurance company adamantly placed our client at fault. We were able to secure policy limits from the driver and owner’s insurance company without filing a lawsuit.

Our client was t-boned, causing her to spin out of control and hit two parked cars.  What was unique about our client here was that she had extensive prior injuries and medical treatment due to a host of prior conditions.  The client’s pre-existing conditions were made worse by this accident, requiring her to see a Pain Management doctor, gets MRIs, and receive trigger point injections.  We were able to quickly secure the at-fault party’s $15,000 policy limits for our client, and then began working on securing her remaining $85,000 underinsured motorist coverage limits. 

Dealing with our client’s own insurance company proved more challenging. They initially offered $12,500. We considered that a ’non-offer’ and fought hard for them to take this case seriously, which they clearly were not. After several rounds of negotiations, threatening arbitration, and perseverance, we went from an initial offer of $12,500 to $85,000.  Needless to say, client was very happy with our work and has even referred her sister to our office, who we are helping on a workers’ compensation claim.

Our client was working remotely in the billing department for a company. Over time, she sustained an injury to the right shoulder, neck, and right hand as a result of repetitive duties involved with her job. She also had a psychiatric injury due to workplace environment and repeated stress.

The claim was denied and the Workers’ Compensation Insurance Company refused to advance any benefits or medical care. As a result, we were able to schedule the applicant with one of our treaters and dispute the denial. Multiple imaging studies were obtained at no cost to our client and a settlement of $37,500.00 was obtained for our client.

Our client worked as a technician for solar panels and was involved in a motor vehicle accident while on the clock. The initial settlement offer for the claim was less than $20,000.00. Our client sustained an injury to the neck and low back but wished to close out as his case as he had already undergone treatment and had gone back to work for another company.

Our Workers’ Compensation department aggressively pushed the case towards a settlement of $60,000.00, more than a 300% increase from the initial offer.

Our client was riding his bicycle when he was hit from behind by the defendant. As a result, he suffered from a knee injury that required surgery. Initially the insurance company accepted liability but changed their liability position when they received the police report (adverse to our client). Despite disputing liability, we ultimately got them to pay the full policy limits without having to file a lawsuit.

Our client was driving for a RIDESHARE COMPANY when she came to a stop. Suddenly, she was rear-ended by the middle car in a three car Collision. After taking an ambulance to the hospital and being discharged, she was back at yet another hospital, with 2 days, due to significant pain. She called our office and was scheduled with a chiropractor the same day. Nearly a year of treatment later, we quickly got the responsible party’s insurance to pay their policy limits. We switched gears and began the underinsured motorist claim against the rideshare company.

We ultimately were able to net the client a total of $175,000 without having to file for arbitration. Our client was overjoyed to find out she would walk away with over $80,000 in her pocket, more than half the settlement. Through tears of joy she told us she had just left her apartment to seek the comfort of family, and could finally spend some needed time with them without worrying about rent or her future treatment.

This case was a hard-fought uninsured motorist case that settled a month before the arbitration hearing. Our client was a mid 40 year old pedestrian who was run over by a hit-and-run driver in a parking lot while walking his dog. The trauma caused our client to sustain severe spinal cord compression which required a cervical fusion and subsequent laminectomy. As our client has cerebral palsy, his injuries caused him to lose his independence in life. Though he was highly-functional and lived independently before the subject incident, his injuries required assistance with every day tasks such as preparing meals, pouring drinks, dressing, grooming and bathing for the rest of his life.

He retained our firm weeks before the two-year uninsured motorist statute of limitations after he was unsatisfied by the first firm he fired. We filed for arbitration immediately against his own insurance company. The UM policy limits were $500,000.00. We pursued his case very aggressively in litigation, completing discovery, picking an arbitrator, and calendaring an arbitration date within six months of retaining the case. Despite our five demands for uninsured motorist coverage offers and the overwhelming evidence of our client’s damages in excess of the uninsured policy limits, his own insurance company never made an offer.

As the case was moving toward to the arbitration hearing and we were submitting our expert designations, the insurance company finally offered to resolve the claim for the uninsured policy limits of $500,000.00. Our client was ecstatic with the result, very thankful for our hard work and aggressive pursuit of justice for him, and said he could not have been happier with his decision to hire our firm. Ultimately, our client will net over $200,000.00 in his pocket.

This month’s pre-litigation case of the month is a father who was t-boned by a commercial pick-up truck, rendering his vehicle a total loss. The policy limits were unknown, but we did know the policy limits were high as it was a commercial insurance policy.

Our client suffered cervical and lumbar disc protrusions, requiring epidural injections. Our client was also recommended future epidural injections in order to care for the injuries he sustained from the accident.

In response to our settlement demand, the third party made an initial offer of $50k. Initially, we seemed very far apart in terms of settlement value. But, after over a month of continuous negotiations, we were able to increase the offer to $125k. Additionally, we were able to obtain a waiver on the medical payments making the total settlement $146,173.56.

The client was ecstatic with the result, as it was way more than he had initially anticipated! This case is a great example of an overall fantastic outcome and recovery for our client.

Our client was riding as a passenger in their sister’s vehicle, when an Amazon driver ran a stop sign and T-Boned the vehicle. The car was a total loss, and both had to be immediately hospitalized. After dealing with our client’s insurance company for five months, our client decided to call The Accident Guys.

We were able to set our client up with chiropractors and specialists. Our attorneys were able to obtain letters from our client’s family business showing they had to take time off for several weeks. We also discussed how our client is a caretaker for their two adult children with special needs. After several months of negotiation, we were able to settle this case for $80,000.00 without any surgery or invasive procedures. Our client walked away extremely grateful!

This month we worked with a client that unfortunately experienced a total loss from a rear end accident. Their small Yaris was hit by a Chevy Truck, ultimately totaling our client’s vehicle.

After monitoring our client’s treatment for their neck and back injuries from the accident, we found an excellent surgeon who successfully repaired their hernia with no money out of pocket.

We were also able to negotiate the claim up to $137,500.00, more than $100K above their initial offer. Our client was thrilled, and even left a video testimonial!

December’s case of the month is a big “little guy” win for a second-time client. With persistence, refusal to back down, advantage of timing, and a strong warning letter, we pushed back against a disappointing initial offer and received overnight delivery of the settlement.

This was a classic rear-end case where our client was hurled into the vehicle in front of them, trapped in the middle of a three-vehicle-pile-up.

Our client required medical visits, chiro, and a cervical MRI revealing disc bulges. As a direct result of our client’s whiplash injuries, their work as a dog groomer was significantly impacted, particularly considering the physical nature of her job.

Ultimately, our client was ecstatic with their settlement, skipped litigation, and will be using their settlement to invest in their own dog grooming business.

This month we had a returning client who was rear-ended by a truck on 48th St in Los Angeles, and was hurled into the vehicle in front of them. Their Prius was sandwiched in between two vehicles and our client was rushed same-day to urgent care and, unfortunately, sustained several all-over injuries.

After a 3-months recovery period of chiro, pain management sessions, MRIs, and two lumbar transforaminal epidural injections, our client still suffered residual lower back pain and had gained roughly thirty pounds due to their inability to exercise or go hiking (one of her few remaining hobbies during quarantine).

We stuck to our guns on this case, refusing to come down one penny for the next three rounds of negotiations.

After we requested the adjuster’s direct supervisor’s information in writing and specified that we would be notifying the supervisor of the case going to arbitration due to the adjuster’s mismanagement and unwillingness to fairly evaluate the claim, we received a better offer within twenty-three minutes. We settled this claim for $50,000 overall.

This client was caught in the middle of a 3-vehicle-pile-up on the eastbound 605 FWY in Ontario, CA. The double-impact caused expensive damages to our client’s vehicle – rendering it a total loss – and our client sustained deep, visible contusions to their upper/mid-back. Our client initially required urgent care and ultimately underwent chiro, pain management, cervical and lumbar MRIs, a lumbar facet block injection, and a cervical facet block injection.

In the Demand and negotiation stages, we harped on the fact that our client is legally entitled to future treatment incurred with reasonable certainty: in this case, additional lumbar facet block injections.

Aside from specific medical needs, another driving factor here was our client’s negatively affected family life. Our client was most disappointed that their injuries prevented them from carrying their toddler daughter or chasing after their 8 year old.

Our client was able to pay their expenses and walk away with $41,666.66 from this settlement.

Our client suffered a traumatic 3-vehicle collision where a motorcyclist (another claimant) was hurled directly onto our client’s windshield. Our client suffered severe lumbar pain, trauma to the head caused by airbag deployment, and trauma to his left side.

Our client was relieved to hear we didn’t have to go through their own uninsured motorist insurance and could get the treatment necessary after their accident. After re-demanding a higher settlement, and undigging further policy information from the adjuster, we hit a total $115K settlement, which our client was incredibly thankful for.

Our client was innocently dozing off in the passenger seat when a multi-vehicle, multi-claimant collision occurred. As a direct result, our client incurred large medical costs, including the ER, chiro sessions, MRIs, a steroid injection, and surgical recommendations for a discectomy and hemilaminectomy.

After strategizing, our client returned to a spine surgeon for a follow-up evaluation and confirmation that the surgeries are, in fact, medically necessary. We refused to come down on our demands and supplemented our case rather than countering with a lower demand.

We ultimately hit the policy limits, and our client walked away with $45,453.97 (and counting).

Unfortunately, our client was involved in a T-Bone accident and racked up large medical bills. Despite a favorable police report and accepted liability, the initial offer was not nearly enough to cover our client’s needs.

Our attorneys immediately got on the phone with the adjuster and convinced them to run this up the chain and speak with management so we could avoid suit. After following up with a strong and detailed letter pleading our client’s case, we got the adjusters to pay the policy limits overnight.

We then proceeded to our client’s personal policy, convincing the adjuster to waive reimbursement, bringing the total settlement up to $35,000.00 – just shy of 6X the initial offer!

This client was a combat veteran who had just been accepted to law school. Unfortunately, our client was walking and had their foot run over, ultimately breaking it, months before they were set to relocate for school. To make matters worse, his VA health insurance denied the bills. After intense negotiation, we were able to get the VA to cover the bills in full.

After battling the insurance company for months, they finally agreed to consider mediation. However, this mediation would be conducted through and at their defense firm, which was less than desirable. Worst yet, COVID-19 struck, and now mediation was off the table.

After mediation fell through, we just kept on fighting. After 7 rounds of negotiation, our attorneys were able to secure an offer, one that was higher than our team expected at trial! Needless to say, our client was thrilled with the result, and wrote us glowing reviews.

This client was involved in a Head-On T-Bone Collision that ended up totaling their car. Our client suffered from cervical bulges and a left knee injury.

After speaking with the adjuster, we held firm to our policy limit demand. After crafting a strongly written letter that stressed the fact that our client was a 23 year old behavioral therapist who worked with children with autism. Working with children only exacerbated our client’s injury and complicated their job. Fortunately, the letter got the adjuster to nearly triple their initial offer and paid out the policy limits!

Our client scrimped and saved for years to buy a new car, and the very same day they drove it off the lot our client was t-boned, causing their new vehicle to spin multiple times and collide into a divider. Sadly, the car was a total loss, and worse yet our client was in serious pain. Initially, the police report put our client at fault. However, our Case Manager did a fantastic job of tracking down a witness, who was kind enough to give us a written statement that ended up putting liability in our favor.

After a few rounds of negotiation, we were able to secure a large settlement. In the end, our client walked away with plenty of funds to get a new set of wheels and cover any future treatment they may need.

Our client was involved in an accident with very little property damage. However, our client was almost immediately recommended cervical fusion surgery. All of his treatment was through our client’s health insurance, which basically consisted of the hospital visit, an orthopedic surgical consultation, and a little physical therapy. Beyond helping our client get necessary medical treatment, we were able to max out their MedPay and have reimbursement waived.  In the end, our client was able to walk away with an $11K recovery, on minimal property damage and treatment.

This case was a trip and fall mediated settlement where the client received an amazing net recovery of $138,042.20. Our client tripped and fell on chipped, dilapidated steps in a shopping center. Among other injuries, they suffered a broken left femur that required surgery. The femur surgery left our client with a large 30 cm scar on their left leg.

After weeks of negotiating, we successfully increased the offer before mediation. Our client was ecstatic with the overall result.

Our client was involved in a horrific collision: she was severely rear-ended by a semi-truck. The shocking property damage photographs would make most people question whether our client even survived the collision. Fortunately, she walked away alive and suffered a right wrist fracture that healed with a soft brace. Her total medical expenses were $23,708.73.

The defendant’s insurance company had a $1,000,000 commercial liability policy limit. Initially the insurance company offered around $18,000 to settle days after the collision. Given their low-ball offer, our client knew she needed legal representation and hired our firm.

Their offer in response to our settlement demand was $34,866.06. After two weeks of negotiating, they increased their offer to $64,267 – claiming it was their top offer. As a result, we persuaded our client to agree to mediation and reject their proposed offer.

At mediation, they increased their offer to $67,000 and eventually $70,000. We rejected their $70,000 offer, explaining our client’s pain and suffering was significant and could not be approached in a cookie-cutter way. Our client did well explaining the impact to her daily life and the trauma she suffered because of the accident. As a result, the offer was increased to $80,000.

Although we believed her case was worth more than $80,000, our client chose to settle the case because she wanted to “put the matter behind her and move on with her life.” Ultimately, she was happy with her settlement and extremely thankful for our hard work and dedication to her case.

We obtained a six figure settlement for our client who was struck by a large truck that ran a stop sign.

Notably, our client suffered a 8 mm lumbar disc herniation which caused major lower back pain. The pain still persisted after receiving two lumbar epidural steroid injections. Our client’s damages totaled $37,372.

The defendant’s insurance company made an initial offer of $38,343. After negotiation, ultimately increased their offer to $43,500. They claimed they could not increase their offer without any new information.

We rejected their offer knowing that our client’s case was worth more. We let them know if they were serious about settling the case before litigation, they needed to get authorization for a six figure settlement.

During about 45 days of constant communication regarding their settlement offer, we maintained that our client need additional treatment and that we were not interested in settling for anywhere near their offer.

Nearly three months after their initial offer, they called to ask about accepting their $43,500 offer. We maintained our client’s position was clear: litigation will result unless they present a six figure settlement offer.

Six days later, the defendant’s insurance company called to present a new offer of $87,100. We rejected. The following day, they increased their offer to $95,000. After negotiations, during the same call, their offer increased to over $100,000.00.

Our client was thankful for our firm’s hard work and ecstatic with his net recovery which was more than what the insurance company initially offered without having to file a lawsuit.

Our client was involved in a hit and run accident and a rear accident in the same month. Unfortunately, our client did not have uninsured motorist coverage for the first accident. When the adjuster evaluated her car for the second accident, he learned she was involved in another accident earlier in the month. After we submitted a policy limits demand to resolve the claim, the bodily injury adjuster questioned our client’s injuries and was hoping to pin them on the first accident.

However, the negotiating attorney successfully argued that the injuries she sustained for second collision were different from the first collision. As such, we were able to secure the full policy limits for the second accident in less than a year. After our client learned about the settlement, she became very emotional as she did not expect anything from her case. She let us know that before she hired our office, she tried to handle the case on her own and was yelled at by the adjuster trying to discourage her from pursuing her case with a law firm.

The defendant ran a stop sign and t-boned our client, who was driving with her 2 children. Our client sustained had a lower back injury which necessitated an injection. Her daughter had a small bruise on her head and went to the ER. After a few rounds of negotiations, we were able to resolve our client’s client for 50% more than what the insurance company initially offered without having to file a lawsuit in less than a year.

Our client was rear-ended on the freeway at night with her son in the backseat. Her son was not injured and our client suffered from minor muscle sprains/strains. However, the accident caused our client to suffer from a lot of anxiety. Despite the minor property damage and low medical bills, we were able to settle her claim without having to file a lawsuit for a favorable amount in less than 7 months.

Our 27 year old client was broad-sided by a driver that caused her vehicle to veer off the road and collide into a park bench. Her vehicle was a total loss. She sustained both neck and back injuries. visible inflammation of her hand, and bruising of her abdomen that did not dissipate for nearly two weeks after the collision.

We exhausted the at-fault party’s limits. As such, an underinsured claim was submitted to her own insurance company. Initially, her own insurance company made an extremely low offer to resolve the claim claiming that our client was young and is going to recover daily quickly. We rejected that argument and suggested we mediate the claim. At mediation, we made all the right arguments but the insurance company still did not want to pay what we believed was reasonable. Shortly after the mediation, however, the insurance company accepted our demand and we were able to resolve the claim for more than 7 times the insurance company’s initial offer.

This was a difficult case with a client who was riding his bike, when the defendant swung open their car door. As a result, our client flew from his bike onto the pavement, and sustained a clavicle fracture. Treatment was relatively limited with only 8 doctor’s visits, as his only non-surgical option was to wear a sling. As such, his medical bills were very low.

After getting to know our client, the negotiating attorney was able to argue to the adjuster how this injury affected client’s work in IT, especially only being able to type with one hand. Clearly, this had a huge impact on his job performance. Additionally, our client had a newborn at home, so carrying her was extremely difficult. He was also taking care of his ill father. Needless to say he was a very sympathetic client. Despite his limited treatment and low medical bills, we were able to secure the policy limits from the at-fault party’s insurance company and more money from our client’s underinsured motorist coverage. As a result of our efforts, our client netted 50% of the total settlement.

Our client was injured in a multiple vehicle accident. As they always try to do, the insurance company initially tried to low ball our client and offer $48,000. However, due to our firm’s persistence, we were able to settle our client’s case for more than 3 times her medical bills. Our client walked away with more money in her pocket than the insurance company’s initial offer without having to go to court.

The defendant sideswiped our client but lied to his insurance company about the facts of the accident. As a result, the insurance company denied liability. Our client, however, had dash cam footage that verified the facts of the accident. Despite the footage, the insurance adjuster continued to deny liability. Due to our attorneys’ persistence, we were able to reverse the adjuster’s liability decision and resolve the case for our client.

Our client was t-boned at a stop sign causing her to suffer from a spine injury. At the time of accident our client was only 22 years. Our attorneys were able to secure the full policy limits for our client in less than 6 months.

Our firm represented both the driver and passenger in a rear end accident. Shortly after the accident, they reached out to our office for representation. When they called, neither of them had seen a doctor despite their lower back pain. We set them up with treatment and resolved their claims for more than double their medical bills.

Our 81-year-old client suffered a right tibia fracture and had difficulty walking after the incident. As such, he was recommended surgery. His medical bills were less than $15,000. Our client wanted to resolve the claim without going to court. As a result, our attorneys were able to resolve this claim for 6 figures, in less than 8 months without filing a lawsuit.

Our client was involved in a head-on collision with semi-truck resulting in significant injures. After months of treatment, the insurance company initially offered $150,000 and later tried to dispute liability. We were ultimately able to settle the client’s claim for $540,000 without having to set foot in court.

Our client was rear-ended at high speed. He suffered injures to his back and knee and was recommended an epidural injection and bone marrow stem cell injection. The insurance company initially offered was $40,000. After weeks of negotiating, we were able to settle the case for $115,000 (almost four times his total medical bills).

Our client was referred to us by his relative who used our services in the past. In this case, the defendant made an unsafe left turn causing significant property damage to our client’s vehicle. As a result of the accident, our client suffered from neck, chest, wrist and knee pain. We were able to get the full policy limits of $50,000 for our client in less than 8 months.

Our client’s wrist injury was aggravated as a result of a rear-end accident. After she contacted our office, we were able to get her the treatment she needed. Although client’s car did not sustain significant property damage, we were able to secure the defendant’s policy limits of $100,000 without having to file a lawsuit.

As a result of the accident, our client sustained whiplash, headaches and lower back pain. Despite these injuries, the insurance company refused to make an acceptable offer. Therefore, we had to file a lawsuit. Less than 6 months after the complaint was filed, the insurance company offered their insured’s $100,000 policy to resolve the claim.

Although liability was clear, the bus company was non-responsive and did not provide their insurance information. However, our team’s persistence resulted in a settlement of $23,000 which was more than three times our client’s medical bills.

Client was hit by an uninsured and drunk driver who ran a red light. Fortunately he had uninsured motorist coverage. Although our client sustained bodily injuries, he was only able to go to 1 doctors appointment. Nevertheless, we were able to secure the policy limits of $15,000 from his insurance company in under 1 year.

Client with prior neck injury was rear-ended and pushing into the car in front of her by an uninsured driver, which aggravated her existing neck injury. We were able to secure policy limits of $50,000 for her in under 1 year.

Our client was sharing the lane while riding her motorcycle when she was cut off. She fell down at 20-25mph and had some road rash. She had minimal treatment with $3,500.00 in medical bills. We were able to get the insurance company to pay their policy limits in less than three months.

Our client was rear-ended while pregnant. As a result of her pregnancy, she was unable to get much treatment. Because of her lack of treatment, the insurance company initially refused to make an offer. However, we were able to get them to pay the full policy limits without having to file a lawsuit.

Our client was a passenger in a vehicle, and was crashed into by an unsafe lane change. The accident caused him to sustain injuries to his neck and lower back. We were able to settle his claim for $135,000.00 in less than a year without having to file a lawsuit.

Our client was involved in a rear end accident that caused minimal damage to his car. The at-fault party, however, was not insured. Therefore, our client presented an uninsured motorist claim with his insurance company for injuries sustained. The insurance company’s initial offer was less than our client’s medical bills and less than half his policy limit. They tried to justify their offer by stating our client did not sustain any real injuries due to minimal property damage. Within a few weeks later, we were able to secure the policy limits for our client.

About 3 months after his first accident, our client was broadsided in a different accident. Despite a favorable police report, the other party tried to apportion liability. As a result, they extended a low offer adding that our client was also injured in a previous accident. In less than a few weeks, we are able to get the insurance company to pay their full limits. Additionally, we were able to get our client’s insurance company to also pay the full $25,000 uninsured motorist policy limits.

What started out as two low offers turned into maximum compensation for our client.

Client had prior existing back problem when he was rear-ended on the freeway.  Client underwent a series of three epidural injections.  We settled the Client’s case for $140,000.00.
