El Monte Car Accident Lawyer

If you’ve been injured in a car accident, stay calm, be informed, and get in touch with an El Monte car crash lawyer.

Collisions may happen in a split second, but the impact of a crash often carries consequences long after. One repercussion of a serious crash that many accident victims will find themselves woefully unprepared for is having to scrape up money to pay for a variety of newfound expenses stemming from damage to their health and personal property.

Here’s the good news: Car accident victims may be eligible for compensation through personal injury law. To discover your legal options, contact an El Monte car accident lawyer at Haffner Law today.

Dealing with Insurance After an El Monte Car Crash

Insurance companies may try to act like your best friend much of the time, but whenever money is involved, you’ll be given a rare opportunity to see through their clever facade.

Should you happen to be an El Monte accident victim seeking compensation, expect to go through a series of trials and tribulations, during which the insurer will likely attempt to trick you into either accepting a paltry settlement or revealing incriminating information.

Avoiding the disclosure of anything that could place a portion of blame on you is of paramount importance due to California’s use of the standard of comparative negligence, which has the potential to limit your damages to the degree to which you’re found liable.

Being found 25 percent at fault in your El Monte car accident, for instance, could result in you receiving a full quarter less in compensation than you initially won.

There’s really no reason to risk the money you desperately need by talking to an insurance adjuster on your own, which is why we recommend getting in touch with a car accident lawyer in El Monte.

Deadlines for El Monte Car Wreck Victims

Besides comparative negligence, accident victims in the state of California must be aware of a handful of legal concepts that will likely apply to their case. One major, yet easily comprehensible, concept to grasp is California’s statute of limitations for personal injury cases, which is two years.

In other words, you will be given two years from the date of your collision to file a claim or suit. Filing after this deadline will likely render your claim useless.

Compensation You Could Recover

Another important legal consideration entails what you should include your claim. Personal injury victims in the Golden State are eligible to receive compensation for both losses and injuries experienced—or expected to be experienced—at any point in time because of their injuries.

While injuries are usually not the most difficult thing to identify, quantifying losses is often a much more difficult ordeal. Examples of damages that may apply to your El Monte collision case include medical expenses, lost wages or earning potential, pain and suffering, emotional distress, vehicle repair or replacement, loss of consortium, and loss of enjoyment of life.

A trusted El Monte car wreck lawyer will craft your claim in a way that helps you recover the full compensation you need and deserve.

Call an El Monte Car Accident Attorney

Much like how car accidents vary in degree of damage and severity, not all personal injury lawyers are competent to the same extent. To work with an attorney who’s truly dedicated to your case, contact a lawyer at Haffner Law today.
