Personal Injury

Personal injury can include a wide variety of cases, but there’s one thing they all have in common. Someone has been injured. Yes, they need a lawyer to advocate their case in court. But another thing they need is someone to stand by their side and support them through a difficult time.

Personal injuries inflicted by another person—whether due to negligence, recklessness, or even intentional act—can range from dog bite to assault. With such a wide range of cases, you need to work with a lawyer who can competently handle any type of case with professional care.

Some of my cases are among the Top 100 Personal Injury Verdicts in the entire country. I have helped clients address their wrongs for over 14 years, achieving recognition by the California State Assembly, Senate, and organizations like Super Lawyers.

What’s my secret? Personalized care and attention for each and every one of my clients. I only take on a select number of cases at any given time, because I treat my clients like family, doing everything I can to secure them the best verdict possible.

I provide free phone consultations and serve clients in both English and Spanish. No matter the type of personal injury you have sustained, my focus is on providing the best service and attention you can get. My clients themselves are often proof of this: most of them come from referrals.

It really does make a difference when your attorney cares about more than money and reputation. My track record shows millions of dollars awarded to my clients in verdicts, and perfect ratings on legal websites—precisely because money and reputation do not come first for me. What comes first for me in my work is you.

It’s important to realize that there is a statute of limitations on personal injury cases in California, and that if you don’t act quickly to defend your best interests, you could lose your case. I am here to help you through the process and do everything I can to guarantee the best outcome, as quickly as possible.
