When you’ve been injured in a car accident, you may not know where to turn for assistance or financial compensation. The insurance company that takes your case – even your own car insurance provider – is not on your side. The best way to protect your legal rights is by hiring an Orange County car accident attorney who will advocate for your best interests.
Attorney Stephen Fredkin has been representing injured car accident victims for more than 20 years. Find out how we can help you if you are the victim of an automobile accident.
Another advantage of hiring The Law Office of Stephen Fredkin is that we are a trial law firm. We prepare each car accident case as if it will go to trial – with extreme attention to detail. In many cases, the capacity to go to trial alone is enough to encourage an insurance company to treat a claimant more fairly. This can result in a higher settlement offer for your crash.
In the event that the insurer does not treat you fairly, however, your lawyer will be prepared to go to trial. Our trial lawyer understands how a car accident has and will continue to affect your life, as well as how to go up against insurance carriers in pursuit of the compensation that you need to move forward.

A successful insurance claim or personal injury lawsuit for an automobile accident in California can result in compensation for your past, present and future damages. Although it is impossible to put a price tag on the pain, suffering and trauma that you endured in a car accident, securing fair compensation with assistance from an attorney can allow you and your family to move on with less financial stress.

No average settlement amount applies to all car accident lawsuits. The value of your case is determined by factors that are unique to you, such as the gravity of your injuries and your prognosis for recovery. To find out what your car accident case might be worth, consult with an attorney.
