The role of your personal injury lawyer should be to help you recover “damages”. Damages include, but aren’t limited to, compensation for medical bills, lost time from work or diminished earnings loss, pain and suffering, compensation for permanent disability or disfigurement and loss of a normal life.
We hold at-fault parties responsible for the losses and damages that were incurred due to their negligent actions. This might be through a personal injury claim or an actual lawsuit if the insurer of the responsible party offers a low settlement or denies liability altogether.
My legal practice started with and focuses on personal injury representation and I also handle immigration law. As a son of Greek Immigrants I understand how difficult it can be to navigate the constantly changing complex immigration laws. Having lived abroad for some years I truly appreciate what it means to have legal immigration status in the United States of America. It is a great passion of mine to watch my clients dreams of legal status get fulfilled.

Under California law, a person or corporation can be held liable for personal injury if the following elements are proven by a preponderance of the evidence, that is, if it’s more likely true than not true that the person:
California follows a pure comparative negligence rule. It allows a claimant to recover damages even if a judge or jury assigns 99% of the fault to them. That means that you can still recover 1% of the negligence against you. That’s why you should never accept fault at the scene or anything after an accident, especially when an adjuster from the opposing insurer phones you and wants a recorded statement. Even remarks that you make on social media might be used against you. A Fullerton personal injury lawyer from GK Legal can assist you with assessing any responsibility attributable to you along with how to proceed for the best possible disposition of the case.
The general rule is that the statute of limitations on an injury case is two years from the date of the accident. In wrongful death cases, it begins to run two years from the date of the death. There are exceptions to this rule that might cause the statute of limitations to be as short as six months though. That’s another reason why it’s far better to consult with a quality personal injury lawyer at GK Legal as soon as you can after the accident.
