Creating a California Personal Injury Claim:

To effectively create a personal injury claim, the following must be established:

1. Duty of Care: The negligent party had an obligation to conduct themselves in a safe way (e.g., a driver owes a duty to follow traffic regulations).
2. Breach of Duty: The negligent party breached this duty, i.e., driving negligently.
3. Causation and Damages: The negligent breach of duty resulted in the injury, and the victim incurred significant damages, physical harm or economic loss.

For example, when the careless error of a physician results in long-term health consequences, the victim can sue for medical malpractice.

Accidents & Injuries Caused by Negligence

Accidents and injuries happen, and unfortunately, they are far too often due to an act of negligence. Careless, distracted, or intoxicated drivers, negligent healthcare providers, and manufacturers of dangerous drugs and products cause injuries and untold suffering to unsuspecting people daily.

According to the Insurance Information Institute (III), 32,675 people were killed and an estimated 2.3 million were injured in motor vehicle crashes in the U.S. in 2014. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports 31 million emergency room visits and 130,557 deaths a year from unintentional injuries in the U.S. Medical errors are the third leading cause of death in the U.S., exceeded only by cancer and heart disease.

Our Mission is Achieving Justice For Personal Injury Victims

Although we cannot always control other peoples’ actions, we can hold them accountable through the civil justice system for the harm their actions cause. Individuals who have suffered serious personal injury caused by someone else’s negligence have the right to seek compensation in a claim for damages.

Proving a Personal Injury Claim in California

To establish a claim for personal injury and recover compensation, certain elements must be proved by the injured party:

A physician, for example, has a duty to perform at an acceptable standard of care in providing healthcare services to a patient. When a negligent doctor commits preventable medical errors, performing outside of that standard of care, and the patient suffers serious injuries with long-term health consequences as a result, the patient may have a valid medical malpractice claim for damages.

Damages in California Personal Injury Claims

In personal injury, you are entitled to the following damages:

If you have suffered a physical injury caused by the negligence of someone else, the best thing to do would be to seek an appropriate amount of compensation for your loss so that you can recover.
