What the other side does

They protect their profits. We protect your future.

After a serious injury, insurance companies move quickly to protect their bottom line—not your recovery. We handle the calls, paperwork, deadlines, and negotiations so you can focus on healing while we fight for the full compensation you deserve.

01
A quick settlement before you know the full cost.
Insurance companies often make early offers before the true extent of your injuries and future expenses is clear. We make sure every loss is accounted for before you decide.
02
Questioning who was really at fault.
Adjusters may try to shift blame or minimize their responsibility. We gather the evidence needed to build a strong case on your behalf.
03
Downplaying your injuries.
They may argue your injuries aren't as serious as they are. We work with medical experts and documentation to show the full impact on your life.
04
Delaying your claim.
The longer your case drags on, the more pressure you may feel to settle. We keep your claim moving and protect your rights every step of the way.

Common Spinal Cord Injury questions

For most personal injury cases, you have two years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. However, this deadline is much shorter if your claim is against a government entity, like the City of Los Angeles, for a dangerous road condition. In that situation, you typically have just six months to file a formal administrative claim.

We handle all spine injury cases on a contingency fee basis. This arrangement means you owe us no attorney's fees unless we successfully recover compensation for you through a settlement or verdict. We also cover all the upfront costs of building and litigating your case.

Most personal injury cases are resolved through a negotiated settlement without going to trial. Insurance companies generally prefer to avoid the uncertainty and expense of a court battle. However, if an insurer is unwilling to offer a settlement that covers the full extent of your damages, our firm is always prepared to present your case to a judge and jury.

These terms are often used together, but they refer to different things. A spine injury refers to damage to the bones (vertebrae), ligaments, or discs of the spinal column. A spinal cord injury is damage to the spinal cord itself, the bundle of nerves that runs through the spinal canal, which is what can result in loss of function and sensation.
