“After about a two year litigation process my case ended up going to a two week jury trial and we won, with a substantial award and favorable verdict. Not once did Steve and his team let me down, but most importantly they believed in me through the entire process. They made me feel like family.”
Isaac Silva, Google Review

The term “personal injury” is a blanket term used to describe any injury to an individual. In legal terms, personal injury is used to refer to injuries caused by the negligence or lack of care of another person. When an injury is caused by someone’s negligence, the injured person can sue for monetary compensation (damages) for pain and suffering and for any costs incurred resulting from their injuries including the time lost from work, and more. In our justice system, monetary damages are the only method of recovery to help make a personal injury victim be made whole. This is where personal injury attorneys come in to ensure the victims get all they are entitled to.
What is my case worth?
The value of your case depends on many factors. Every San Diego personal injury case is different. One factor is the nature and extent of your injury. Some people heal faster than others. One person may heal in a week, while another may take six months, a year, or may never heal from the injury. Another factor is the amount of your medical bills, future medical bills and lost earnings, etc. Talk to one of the personal injury attorneys here at (619) 444-2244 for accurate personal injury advice on the value of your case.
Our office works with a variety of doctors in the San Diego area who can provide immediate medical treatment and defer payment until the case is finished.
Yes, you are entitled to a rental car. Some insurance companies will set you up immediately with a car rental agency in San Diego without you incurring any expenses. Other companies will reimburse you for your car rental expenses in the future.
You pay us only IF we recover compensation for you through a settlement with the insurance company or a verdict through the court. If we do not recover compensation for you, you do NOT have to pay us for our time.
This depends on the extent of your injury. Typically, a San Diego personal injury case takes anywhere from two to eight months. Sometimes, cases take longer if they are more complex or if a lawsuit is filed. See our personal injury lawsuit timeline page for all the details on how long your case may take.
Not necessarily. Sometimes you are far better off without filing a lawsuit. Our personal injury law office typically files a claim with the at-fault party’s insurance company. We then attempt to negotiate with the insurance company. If you are dissatisfied with the insurance company’s offer, we may decide to file a lawsuit.
Putting a monetary value to each of those is what we do as personal injury attorneys for our San Diego clients, and then we fight hard to attain what you deserve. As in all personal injury cases, you are up against a behemoth in the insurance company which does not have your best interests in mind. They goal is to pay you as little as possible, and you are at a disadvantage if you try to take them on yourself. There is no need. That’s what we are here for. Let us fight the battle for you.
