PERSONAL INJURY

Personal Injury Attorneys

In addition to Civil Rights experience, our attorneys have represented clients who have been injured due to the negligence of another person or entity. We work with our clients to make sure that they focus on their recovery after an accident while we move their claim forward. Every personal injury case involves some type of negligence. Another party must have acted in a way that a reasonable person would not which resulted in another person being injured. The most common type of personal injury case is a car accident. Was the party speeding, drunk or in some other way negligent at the time of the accident? You may have a case.

Types of Accidents

Bicycle Accidents

Similar to a motorcycle accident, bicycle accident injuries can be devastating. Remember to always wear a helmet!

Slip & Fall

Victims of slip-and-fall accidents have a fairly difficult road ahead of them. Many times it is very hard to prove that a party was negligent in these cases. Slip and fall accidents are very circumstantial, so we highly recommend speaking with an attorney to see if you have a case.

Wrongful Death

Accident Injuries

Many people wonder how a personal injury case is evaluated. Most of the damages recovered from a successful lawsuit are directly related to the medical bills and associated recovery from the injuries. Common examples of accident injuries and their associated impact on a personal injury lawsuit are:

Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI)

These injuries are life-changing. In many cases, a person will never fully recover from a traumatic brain injury. It is vital that a person gets the best medical care they can if they have suffered a TBI, so they can be put on the best path to recovery. In California, CFK Trial Lawyers For The People knows the best brain specialists and can help you find the right person to help you recover.

Broken Bones

The pain and suffering from broken bones can be temporary, in lucky cases, or chronic. We highly recommend speaking with a medical professional so they can properly assess your long-term prospect for recovery.

Back Injuries

Damage to the back or spinal cord can be very dangerous. Injuries include numbness, herniated disks, or even paralysis.

What Should I Do If I Have Been Injured In An Accident?

Seek Medical Attention (If Necessary)

The number one priority for any personal injury victim should be to talk to a doctor and work on a plan for treatment and recovery. Your health and well-being in the long term are vital. A doctor can also help you get your injuries documented, which will help in the future.

Gather Information & Evidence

Our recommendation for any potential personal injury client is to gather as much information as possible before pursuing a claim. Get the names and contact information of the at-fault party as well as any witnesses or responding police officers, get a police report or any other documentation on the accident, and talk to a doctor to get your injuries documented.

Talk To A Lawyer

If you have been injured in California due to the negligence of another person or entity, we recommend speaking with a lawyer. California is a fault state which means that a personal injury accident settlement is directly related to the degree of fault of the liable party. CFK Trial Lawyers For The People is happy to answer any questions you have regarding this. Our legal consultations are free.
