Dolan Law – San Francisco Personal Injury Attorneys

The injured party may be able to sue the negligent party for their injuries. If you suffer an injury, you may be able to file a claim in court, which would allow you to receive financial compensation.

In this article, I will provide a concise summary of California Personal Injury Law

“Personal injury” refers to an injury or financial loss caused by another’s recklessness, carelessness, or intentional conduct. If you want compensation from the person or government agency that injured you (or their insurance company), you must demonstrate the following:

“Liability” means that the person, government agency or corporation responsible did not intend to harm you. A car accident caused by speeding or negligent behavior is sufficient evidence to prove liability.

People who suffer personal injuries can recover monetary damages for:

• Physical injuries and physical impairments past and future, as well as mental distress and mental anguish;
• Expenses for past, present, and future medical care;
• Loss of wages and earning capacity in the past and in the future;
• In cases of egregious wrongdoing, punitive damages are available.

Family members can seek compensation if someone dies because of someone else’s negligence (a “wrongful death”).

Which types of vehicle collisions can an attorney help with?

Personal injury attorneys are available for any type of vehicle collision. Whenever there is an accident with another vehicle that causes injury, it is best to consult a lawyer. A vehicle colliding with another vehicle, a car hitting a bicycle, or a car falling on a pedestrian are some of the major types.  California’s streets and highways are filled with cars, trucks, and buses. One driver’s recklessness or negligence often causes motor vehicle accidents. We handle all types of motor vehicle accidents at the Dolan Law Firm.

WHICH ARE THE COMMON CAUSES OF COLLISIONS?

Most collisions happen because one party doesn’t pay enough attention to the road. In the absence of experience, drivers often forget how dangerous and large cars are once they get used to driving. Cars can cause catastrophic injuries when they collide with two-wheelers or pedestrians.

Here are some of the most common causes:

Your rights may be protected if you’ve been in an auto accident, regardless of who was at fault. Automobile accident victims injured by negligent drivers. A personal injury lawyer can review your case if you have been injured in a car crash. Other expenses may be unrelated to you, such as medical bills. 

WHAT MIGHT I DO IF THE POLICE REPORT FIND ME TO BE VIOLENT?   

Traffic collision reports that find one person at fault do not end the inquiry. Sometimes the police get the wrong information, believe the wrong witness, or miss the real story. The police report conclusions are rarely admissible at trial if they are negative, proving an innocent driver at fault, but they can influence the insurance company’s first impressions.

Despite being found at fault by the police, if you believe the other driver was negligent in a collision, it would be useful to seek legal advice from a personal injury attorney. It is essential to review independently the conclusions of what happened. 

When Other People’s Fault Causes A Collision, Are Damages Recoverable?

The law allows people injured in crashes or accidents caused by the fault of others, corporations, or public agencies to recover damages. Personal injury lawsuits can recover several types of damage.

In the event of special damages,

It is the economic damages, or the out-of-pocket expenses that constitute Special Damages. There are often some fairly simple formulas that can be used to calculate them. Some of them include:
