If you or a loved one are one of the millions of people injured or killed in auto accidents, you have rights that need to be protected, and the expert Los Angeles car accident lawyers at Heimberg Barr are here to help. You may find yourself unable to work, unable to function in your household and day-to-day activities and facing high medical bills or even a lifetime of therapy and additional medical procedures.
Get Protected
Car accidents create confusion for those affected, particularly if the accident is severe. This is the time when a veteran accident attorney familiar with Los Angeles and the local legal community can prevent you from making a costly mistake. It is a common tactic for the other driver’s insurance company to offer a settlement in exchange for a release of liability. Faced with decreased income and increased medical bills, it can be tempting to accept the offer. Accident lawyers in Los Angeles know that any unsolicited offer to settle usually is a good indication that the other driver’s insurance is attempting to lessen their financial exposure knowing they will have a difficult time defending a personal injury lawsuit.
We have some of the best personal injury attorneys Los Angeles can lay claim to and they will be happy to go over the facts of your case before you commit to anything to ensure your best interests are being represented.
Medical Evaluation
Evaluation by a medical professional is critical both to preserve your health and to document injuries caused by the accident. Your doctor may recommend further evaluation after a specific period of time so that any delayed injuries are documented. You owe it to yourself and your family to explore your options following a car accident.
Though this is an excruciatingly difficult time for you, please be aware that it is critical that an investigation into the facts of the case be undertaken by one of the top Los Angeles car accident attorneys at Heimberg Barr as soon as possible if you are considering filing a lawsuit. This is necessary to preserve evidence, to get information while memories are fresh, and to avoid losing your right to bring a lawsuit.
The law allows only a limited amount of time in which to file a lawsuit. These time limits are complex and strictly enforced by the courts. It is in your best interest to speak to an attorney as soon as possible.
