Commercial Vehicle Accident Lawyer in Los Angeles

We work on a contingency basis, which means you don’t pay anything unless we win your case. No upfront costs, no hidden fees.

The sooner you start, the better. Securing legal representation early allows us to preserve evidence, build a strong case, and meet important deadlines.

Compensation varies depending on the specifics of your case, including medical bills, lost wages, property damage, and pain and suffering. We’ll fight to maximize the amount you’re entitled to.

Follow these essential steps to protect yourself and strengthen your case.

1. Prioritize Safety

Move to a safe location, ensure that everyone involved is out of harm’s way, and call emergency services for medical help if needed.

2. Report the Accident

Contact police authorities and ensure an official accident report is filed. This report will be a critical piece of evidence in your case.

3. Gather Evidence

Document the accident scene thoroughly:
Take photos of vehicle damage, road conditions, and any injuries.
Collect names, contact details, and insurance information from all parties involved.
Speak to witnesses and collect their contact information.

4. Seek Medical Attention

Even if injuries aren’t immediately apparent, consult a medical professional. Hidden injuries may surface later, and medical records are essential for your claim.

5. Avoid Speaking to Insurance Adjusters Alone

Insurance companies aim to minimize payouts. Avoid recording statements or signing documents without first consulting your lawyer.
