Sherman Oaks Personal Injury Law Firm

Accidents on commercial properties can happen due to various hazards, such as wet floors, uneven surfaces, inadequate lighting, or lack of security. If you were injured on a company’s property, California law holds the property owner or the business operating on the property responsible for maintaining safe conditions.

Our attorneys will investigate the circumstances of your accident to determine who is liable:

• Property owner: If the property owner failed to maintain safe conditions or warn visitors of known hazards, they may be held liable for your injuries.
• Business operator: If the business operating on the property created the hazardous condition or failed to address it, they could be held liable.

We will pursue a claim against the appropriate parties to secure compensation for your injuries and losses.

If you were injured in a bicycle accident, we will:

• Investigate the cause: We'll examine the circumstances of the accident, gather witness statements, review police reports, and consult with accident reconstruction experts if necessary to determine how the accident occurred.
• Identify liable parties: We'll identify all responsible parties, which could include motorists or other cyclists.
• Pursue compensation: We'll fight to recover your losses, including medical bills, lost wages, bike repairs or replacement, and compensation for your pain and suffering.

Bicycle accidents are unfortunately common in Sherman Oaks, even on designated bike paths. California law provides specific protections for cyclists, and we are dedicated to advocating for their rights. We’ll determine who is at fault and help you seek compensation.

If you were a passenger in a car accident, you have the right to seek compensation from the at-fault driver — even if it was your friend. California law recognizes that all drivers owe a duty of care to their passengers.

Our attorneys will handle several aspects of your case, including:

• Identifying the at-fault driver: We'll investigate the accident and determine which driver was responsible for causing the crash.
• Dealing with insurance companies: We'll handle all communications with insurance adjusters, protecting your rights and negotiating for a fair settlement.
• Filing a lawsuit: If necessary, we will file a lawsuit on your behalf and advocate for your rights in court.

Rest assured that we will work diligently to protect your interests and seek the compensation you deserve, even if it means filing a claim against your friend’s insurance company.

While it’s always best to seek medical attention immediately after an accident to ensure your well-being and create a record of your injuries, you can still pursue a claim even if you didn’t see a doctor right away.

However, it’s important to:

• Seek medical care as soon as possible: As soon as you realize you have injuries, seek medical attention. Further delaying medical care can harm your health and make it more difficult to prove your injuries were caused by the accident.
• Document your injuries: Keep detailed records of your symptoms, medical treatments, and any limitations you experience.
• Contact an attorney: An experienced Sherman Oaks personal injury attorney can help gather evidence, address your concerns, and build a strong case for compensation.

We understand that accident victims may not always realize the extent of their injuries immediately. We will work with you to overcome any challenges related to delayed medical treatment and present a compelling case to the insurance company or the court.
