Hurt in an Accident in California?
San Diego Personal Injury Lawyer Offers Free Initial Consultations
An accident is rarely a true “accident,” where no one is responsible for what happened—usually, a person’s negligence is to blame. For example, a negligent driver may ignore speed limits and cause a car crash. If you sustain injuries in an accident caused by someone else’s negligence, then you can hold that party accountable for your medical bills and other losses through a personal injury claim. However, although the law entitles you to compensation, you may face opposition from the liable party’s insurance company and/or defense attorneys. A personal injury lawyer can help you stand up to this opposition and fight for the recovery you deserve.
Attorney Bonnici Law Group has been advocating for the rights of injury victims in the San Diego area for decades. Before founding his own practice, he worked for a large firm handling complex, multi-million dollar cases. Now, he combines that experience with the personal attention and caring counsel of a small operation. He limits the number of cases he accepts, so that you can be confident that you will receive comprehensive representation and frequent updates. If you need assistance after any kind of accident, then contact San Diego personal injury lawyer Joshua Bonnici today.
What Are Common Reasons for a Personal Injury Claim?
Each state has its own laws regarding an individual’s right to bring a civil claim against another party. However, generally speaking, you may file a personal injury claim for compensation against a person, company or government agency that causes you physical or financial harm. In most cases, a person files a claim after an accident that causes injuries and other damages. Some of the most common examples include:
- Motor vehicle accidents. After a car accident in California, you can usually file an insurance claim with the at-fault driver’s insurer. If this driver is uninsured, then you may be able to collect compensation from your own provider or through a personal injury lawsuit. The same is true of any collision, including bus accidents, motorcycle wrecks and bicycle crashes.
- Accidents due to unsafe premises. Depending on the circumstances, property owners may be liable for guest’s injuries due to negligence. For example, if a property owner allows dangerous conditions to persist, then slip and fall accidents may seriously harm guests. However, premises liability laws impose different levels of responsibility depending on the type of owner and the reason for the visit.
- Defective products. Manufacturers must test all new consumer products to ensure they are reasonably safe and free from defects. However, companies may skip or overlook necessary regulations or safety checks, resulting in items that may cause serious harm. Defective vehicles and auto parts, medications and children’s product are all common reasons for a product liability claim.
