Personal Injury Cases We Handle in Los Angeles

Los Angeles’s dense traffic and urban environment produce a wide range of personal injury claims. Common case categories include motor vehicle accidents, motorcycle accidents, pedestrian accidents, slip and fall incidents, dog bites, and premises liability claims. High traffic volume across the city makes vehicle and pedestrian collisions particularly frequent, and premises liability cases arise from hazards such as missing drain covers, inadequate fencing, or poorly maintained walkways.

California Personal Injury Law: Key Rules for Los Angeles Claimants

Two deadlines and one liability rule shape nearly every personal injury claim filed in California. Under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 335.1, injured parties generally have two years from the date of injury to file a lawsuit. Missing that deadline can end the right to seek compensation.

California also follows a pure comparative negligence rule. An injured party can still recover damages even if they were partially at fault for the accident, though the recovery is reduced by their percentage of fault. Personal injury lawsuits in Los Angeles are filed in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, with civil cases centered at the Stanley Mosk Courthouse in downtown Los Angeles.

How a Personal Injury Claim Moves Forward

Most personal injury claims follow a consistent path. The process begins with investigating the incident and gathering evidence: medical records, accident reports, and documentation of lost wages. From there, the focus shifts to negotiating with the insurance company. If the insurer won’t offer a reasonable amount, filing a lawsuit becomes the next step. Many cases resolve before trial, but having an attorney prepared to litigate can affect how insurers approach settlement negotiations.

Cases We Handle

Workers’ Compensation & Wrongful Death Representation

Not every injury fits neatly into a single legal category. Alongside personal injury cases, we represent clients in workers’ compensation claims and wrongful death actions. If you’re unsure which type of case applies to your situation, a conversation with our team can help clarify your options.

Talk to a Los Angeles Personal Injury Attorney at No Upfront Cost

Our firm works on a contingency fee basis. You pay no attorney fees unless we recover for you, so you can move forward with experienced legal representation without worrying about upfront costs while you’re still recovering.

Contact Law Offices of Haleh Shekarchian at (855) 785-0297 to schedule a consultation with a Los Angeles personal injury lawyer.

Why Injury Victims Need Representation When Dealing with Insurers

Insurance companies are skilled at managing claims in their own favor. One common tactic is making an early settlement offer before the full extent of injuries is known. Accepting too soon can leave you without compensation for ongoing medical treatment or future lost wages.

Adjusters may also request recorded statements shortly after an accident. Answers given without legal guidance can be used later to minimize a claim’s value. Medical records and thorough documentation of lost wages are critical to establishing what a claim is actually worth, and gathering that evidence takes time and legal knowledge.

When our attorneys communicate with the insurance company on your behalf, the dynamic shifts. Insurers may respond differently to represented claimants, and we can assess when a settlement offer reflects fair value and when it doesn’t.
