Most car accident cases in Los Angeles come down to two things: proving who caused the crash, and showing the full cost of your injuries. Insurance companies move fast to pay as little as possible. We move faster: we collect the police report, camera footage and witness statements, and we document every medical bill and missed paycheck.

How much does it cost to hire you?
Nothing up front. We work on contingency: we are paid a percentage of what we recover for you, and only if we win. If there is no recovery, you owe us no fee.
How long do I have to file a claim in California?
For most injury claims, two years from the date of the injury (Code of Civil Procedure section 335.1). Claims against a city or county can have a deadline as short as six months, so call early.

It depends on your medical bills, lost income, how the injury affects your life, and the insurance available. We give you an honest estimate after we review your case.
