Common Types of Personal Injury Cases

In Los Angeles, personal injury cases can arise from various situations, requiring an attorney’s tailored legal approach. Some of the most common cases include the following:

Motor Vehicle Accidents

Car wrecks, motorcycle collisions, and truck crashes can result in severe injuries, often requiring long-term medical care. A person injured in an auto accident could work with a lawyer to determine the extent of their damages.

Premises Liability

Property owners have a legal duty to maintain safe conditions. Slip-and-fall accidents, negligent security claims, and dog bite cases fall into this category.

Defective Products

A lawyer could pursue a product liability claim when a product causes harm due to design flaws, manufacturing defects, and/or inadequate warnings.

Other Practice Areas in Personal Injury Law

  • Catastrophic Injuries: A catastrophic injury is a physical injury or illness that is regarded as particularly serious or extreme, inflicting considerable impact on the injury’s victim. These injuries may not always be permanent, but, oftentimes, their impacts are still longstanding.
  • Medical Malpractice: When healthcare professionals fail to provide the standard of care, the consequences can be devastating. Our firm will work tirelessly to hold medical practitioners accountable for their negligence.
  • Bad Faith Insurance Claims: Sometimes insurance companies refuse to honor their obligations to you, their insured—whether it’s auto insurance following a collision, failure to give you a full and prompt payout for property damage, or denial of medical coverage. Bad faith acts by an insurance company compounds your suffering, and Boren Law can navigate the complexities of holding insurance companies accountable to you.
  • Workplace Injuries: If you’ve been injured on the job, you may be entitled to compensation (beyond just workers’ compensation). We will explore all avenues to maximize your recovery.

 

Understanding State Law

California follows a comparative negligence rule, meaning a survivor could still recover damages even if he or she were partially at fault for the incident. For instance, if a court determines that a person was 20 percent responsible for their own injuries, their total recovery is reduced by 20 percent– not reduced completely.

Additionally, state law imposes a statute of limitations on these claims. In most cases, survivors have two years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. However, exceptions exist, such as cases involving government entities, which often have a much shorter deadline (sometimes as short as six months). Failing to take legal action within the appropriate time frame could prevent you from recovering compensation.

A personal injury lawyer in Los Angeles could help navigate these legal complexities and ensure all necessary filings are completed on time. In addition, understanding your rights and legal options could help you make informed decisions about proceeding with your case.
