Fees, Costs and Case Results
Where representation is offered on a contingency basis there is no attorney fee unless we recover, and the firm advances case costs — filing fees, expert witnesses and medical records — which are then repaid out of any recovery. If there is no recovery, you owe no attorney fee. The specific terms that apply to a matter are set out in the written fee agreement for that matter.
Where this site refers to a verdict, settlement or court order, that result was dependent on the facts of that case, and results will differ if based on different facts. Past results do not predict or guarantee the outcome of any other matter, and no particular outcome is promised or guaranteed.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What are the most common injuries from truck accidents?
- Common truck accident injuries include spinal cord injuries (paralysis), traumatic brain injuries (TBI), multiple fractures, severe burns, internal organ damage, amputations, crush injuries, and soft tissue injuries. The massive weight difference between commercial trucks (up to 80,000 pounds) and passenger vehicles (3,000-4,000 pounds) causes catastrophic injuries.
- What should I do immediately after a truck accident?
- Call 911 immediately, seek emergency medical attention even if injuries seem minor, document the scene with photos if possible, get witness information, obtain the truck driver's information and DOT number, preserve all clothing and personal items, and contact a truck accident attorney as soon as possible to protect your rights.
- What medical specialists treat truck accident injuries?
- Truck accident victims may need trauma surgeons, orthopedic surgeons, neurosurgeons, neurologists, pain management specialists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, plastic surgeons for burns or scarring, psychologists for PTSD, and rehabilitation specialists for long-term recovery.
- Why are medical records important in truck accident claims?
- Medical records document the extent of injuries, causation linking injuries to the accident, treatment costs, prognosis, and permanent disability. They provide crucial evidence for proving damages and securing maximum compensation. Gaps in treatment can be used by insurance companies to deny or reduce claims.
- What are California medical liens in truck accident cases?
- California medical liens allow healthcare providers to be paid from your settlement or verdict. Liens can be placed by hospitals, doctors, ambulance companies, Medicare, Medicaid (Medi-Cal), and health insurance companies. Experienced attorneys negotiate lien reductions to maximize your net recovery.
