Personal Injury

Free Case Evaluation

When you or someone you love is injured in an accident or hurt by someone else intentionally, it can be hard to know where to turn. Medical bills can pile up; you may be unable to work; you could be facing long-term physical and financial consequences; you may have physical limitations that will prevent you from continuing to work in the same career. On top of that, you may be dealing with calls from insurance companies urging you to settle before you even understand the extent of your injuries. If all of this results from someone else's actions, you shouldn't have to deal with this alone.

Damages

Under California law, victims of someone else's negligence, recklessness, or intentional actions may be entitled to recover for physical and emotional damages. These damages can include compensatory damages for out-of-pocket expenses like medical bills and lost wages, as well as non-economic damages for pain and suffering. 

You can recover a wide range of damages in a personal injury lawsuit. Damages may include those for:

  • Medical bills,

  • Property damage,

  • Lost wages,

  • Long-term care,

  • Lost earning capacity,

  • Physical therapy,

  • Occupational therapy, 

  • Pain and suffering,

  • Disfigurement or scarring,

  • Wrongful death, and

  • Punitive damages.

Cases We Handle

At the Progress Law Firm, we handle a wide range of personal injury cases, including:

  • Slip and fall accidents,

  • Car accidents,

  • Medical malpractice,

  • Construction accidents,

  • Dog bites,

  • Product liability,

Because every case is different, we work with you to examine all the evidence and determine your best course of action. If needed, we can negotiate with the insurance companies and medical providers to ensure that you're fully compensated, and your bills are covered. But if it's necessary to file suit, we're prepared to litigate aggressively on your behalf. 

While accident victims typically have two years to sue in California, the statute of limitations can be longer or shorter depending on the circumstances of your case. That's why it's important to seek legal guidance as soon as possible to avoid having your claim barred by the courts. If someone else's negligence, recklessness, or intentional wrongful act injures you or someone you love, please call us. The Progress Law Firm can help.
