What Does a Los Angeles Personal Injury Lawyer Do?

A Los Angeles personal injury attorney helps clients who have been injured as a result of someone else’s negligence or intentional wrongdoing. Here are some of the key things a personal injury attorney can do for you:
  • Investigate your case: Investigating the circumstances of your accident, gathering evidence such as witness statements, police reports, medical records, and photographs to build a strong case on your behalf.
  • Determine liability: We will work to determine who is liable for your injuries, whether it’s a negligent driver, a property owner, a product manufacturer, or another party.
  • Negotiate with insurance companies: Our office can negotiate with the insurance company on your behalf to ensure that you receive fair compensation for your injuries and related expenses. This can include medical bills, lost wages, property damage, and pain and suffering.
  • Represent you in court: If negotiations with the insurance company are unsuccessful, a personal injury attorney can file a lawsuit on your behalf and represent you in court to fight for the compensation you deserve.
  • Advocate for your rights: Our injury attorneys will be your advocate throughout the entire legal process, ensuring that your rights are protected and that you are treated fairly by all parties involved.
  • Provide guidance and support: Our lawyers can provide you with guidance and support throughout the legal process, answering your questions and keeping you informed every step of the way.

How Do I Know If I Need a Los Angeles Personal Injury Lawyer?

If you have been injured due to the negligence or wrongdoing of another person or entity, you may benefit from the services of a Los Angeles personal injury lawyer. Here are some common scenarios in which hiring a personal injury attorney may be necessary:
  • You have suffered serious injuries: If you have suffered serious injuries that require medical treatment, hospitalization, surgery, or ongoing medical care, a personal injury attorney can help you pursue the compensation you need to cover your medical bills, lost wages, and other related expenses.
  • You are not sure who is at fault: If you are unsure who is at fault for your injuries, a personal injury attorney can help you investigate the incident and determine who is liable. This is particularly important in cases where multiple parties may be responsible for your injuries.
  • The insurance company is denying your claim: If the insurance company is denying your claim or offering a low settlement, a personal injury attorney can help you negotiate with the insurance company and pursue the compensation you deserve.
  • You are facing long-term disability: If your injuries have left you with a long-term disability that affects your ability to work or enjoy life, a personal injury attorney can help you pursue compensation for your lost earning capacity, as well as for your pain and suffering.
  • You are experiencing emotional distress: If your injuries have caused you emotional distress, such as anxiety, depression, or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), a personal injury attorney can help you pursue compensation for your emotional damages.
Overall, if you have been injured and are unsure whether you need a personal injury attorney, it’s best to consult with a qualified attorney who can evaluate your case and advise you on your legal options. Most personal injury attorneys offer free initial consultations, so you have nothing to lose by seeking legal advice.

How Do You Prove a Personal Injury Case in Los Angeles?

To prove a personal injury case in Los Angeles, you generally need to establish the following elements:
  • Duty of care: You must establish that the defendant owed you a duty of care. For example, a driver has a duty to obey traffic laws and drive safely, while a property owner has a duty to maintain their premises in a safe condition.
  • Breach of duty: You must show that the defendant breached their duty of care. This means that they failed to exercise reasonable care under the circumstances, such as by driving recklessly or failing to repair a dangerous condition on their property.
  • Causation: You must prove that the defendant’s breach of duty caused your injuries. This means that your injuries would not have occurred but for the defendant’s actions or inactions.
  • Damages: You must demonstrate that you suffered actual damages as a result of your injuries, such as medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
To establish these elements, you will need to gather evidence, such as witness testimony, photographs, medical records, and expert opinions. You may also need to hire expert witnesses, such as accident reconstructionists or medical professionals, to testify on your behalf. It’s important to note that personal injury cases in Los Angeles can be complex and challenging to prove. It’s highly recommended that you work with an experienced personal injury attorney who can guide you through the legal process, help you gather evidence, and build a strong case on your behalf.

How Much is My Personal Injury Case in California Worth?

Determining the value of a personal injury case in California can be challenging, as it depends on various factors, such as the severity of your injuries, the impact on your life, and the amount of available insurance coverage.
In general, personal injury compensation in California can cover the following damages:
  • Economic damages: These are the financial losses you have suffered as a result of your injuries, such as medical expenses, lost wages, and property damage.
  • Non-economic damages: These are the non-financial losses you have suffered, such as pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life.
  • Punitive damages: In some cases, you may be awarded punitive damages, which are intended to punish the defendant for particularly egregious conduct.
To determine the value of your case, your attorney will consider various factors, such as the severity of your injuries, the cost of your medical treatment, the impact on your ability to work, and the long-term effects on your quality of life. They will also consider the extent of the defendant’s liability and the amount of insurance coverage available. It’s important to note that every case is unique, and there is no set formula for determining the value of a personal injury case in California. To get a better understanding of what your case may be worth, it’s recommended that you speak with an experienced personal injury attorney who can evaluate your case and provide you with an estimate of the potential value of your claim

These guys deserve all the praise they get. Mr. Hernandez worked with me for nearly a year on a claim and gave me the best guidance and advice every step of the way and produced results far above my expectations for how I thought things were going to play out. The results he and his team produced for me quite literally changed my life. They will be my go-to for the rest of my life in their field and I will point everyone I know who needs any help at all their way. Their service was extremely personal and professional, and very honest. I would rate higher than 5 stars if I could.

I went with this firm on a whim after some google searching. I ended up having Elliott Jung represent me, and I'm so darn happy I did. He was truly amazing from start to finish. Empathetic, knowledgeable and determined are just a few words to describe him. He fought for my case like it was his wife's or his daughters, and I mean that I really felt his dedication throughout the entire process. And I won! Eternally grateful for this experience and I will forever refer Elliott to anyone who even utters the word attorney.

I wanna start by making it known that the number of reviews I have written in my life I could count on one hand. That being said, I felt it necessary to Publicly Acknowledge Elliot Jung and the entire team at HHJ trial attorneys for the dedication and time they have put him to take care of my family since our accident. My gratitude is unrivaled. Valentine’s day of this year my wife and I were hit at 9 o’clock at night by a young girl with no headlights on. It was a traumatic experience to say the least and we were Lucky to have hobbled away. Shortly after the accident, I contacted a relative who is an attorney. I explained the situation and without hesitation was sent Elliot Jung‘s contact info. I did some research and read reviews as well as his background in law and was blown away. The first time we met I was overwhelmed with this feeling of comfort. A it was a genuine sense that everything was going to be taken care of. Up until that point, I hadn’t felt any sense of relief in regards to our accident. I’ve always pictured attorneys as disgruntled old men with high blood pressure and anger problems. Haha that may be because I know a few that are exactly that. But Elliot is about as far from that as one could be. He’s young, driven, and has an evident passion for what he does. And he’s damn good at it I am amazed by the attentiveness, wisdom, and overall concern for my family‘s well-being that Elliot and the entire HHJ team has shown my family since day one of this lengthy ordeal. I was just recently informed that we won our case! In short, Elliot is phenomenal as an individual as well as an attorney, HHJ is way more than a money-hungry firm, and i will support them in any way i can.
