-
Do I Have a Case?Personal injury claims arise from negligence. If you have suffered physical, emotional, psychological, or financial harm due to another’s recklessness or carelessness, you may have grounds to file a personal injury claim. Contact our Los Angeles personal injury attorneys at Greene Broillet & Wheeler to discuss a potential case.
-
What Is My Case Worth?The value of your personal injury case is determined by assessing the damages you incurred as a result of someone else's negligence. There is no predetermined value, and there are no limits on the amount of compensation you can recover; all case values will vary. Some of the factors that may be used to calculate damages include your lifestyle and how it’s been affected by the injuries, whether or not you share fault for the accident, and whether or not you have insurance coverage.
-
What Can I Be Compensated For?In California, personal injury cases cover economic losses, non-economic losses, and punitive damages. This may include compensation for past and future medical expenses related to your injury, costs for assistance with your daily life, property loss, salary or wage loss, loss of consortium, pain and suffering, and more.
-
How Long Do I Have to File a Claim?In California, you have two years to file an injury claim and three years to file a property damage claim.
-
How Much Will It Cost to Hire Your Firm?Your initial consultation with Greene Broillet & Wheeler is always free of charge. We also work on a contingency fee basis, meaning we advance the cost of proving your case, and you do not pay any legal fees unless we are successful in recovering compensation on your behalf.
-
Should I Accept a Settlement Offer?You are not obligated to accept a settlement offer from the other party's insurance company, especially their initial offer. You always have the option to negotiate a higher amount or take your case to trial, which is something your Los Angeles personal injury lawyer can advise you on. If you have already received a settlement offer from the insurance company, it would be wise to discuss your options with an attorney before accepting.
-
