If you have suffered an injury in an accident due to someone else’s negligence, you may be entitled to financial compensation. Negligence is the failure to use a reasonable amount of care. California law allows many victims of negligence to recover financial compensation for their injuries and losses.

Personal injury law, also known as tort law, allows an injured accident victim to seek a legal remedy for someone else’s negligence in the form of financial compensation to make him or her whole again. If you have grounds for a personal injury case, you can seek money from the person or party at fault for causing your accident. You may have a personal injury case in California if another person was careless or reckless and this gave you a physical injury, property damage, lost wages, emotional distress or other losses.
The Law Office of Stephen Fredkin is trial-focused. Our founder and lead attorney is a trial lawyer, meaning that he can take your personal injury case to trial, if necessary. Although most personal injury cases settle, the ability to go to trial can mean a higher initial settlement offer and an insurance company that is less likely to mishandle your claim (treat it in bad faith). Stephen has over 20 years of experience and has tried more than 150 jury and court trials collectively.
Working with a trial attorney means that your case will be prepared as if it will go to court, even if it does not. Trial preparation has benefits such as careful attention to detail, a thorough investigation and examination of the witnesses, and qualified expert witnesses. Furthermore, if an insurance company does not treat you fairly, your trial lawyer can take the corporation to court to demand maximum financial compensation on your behalf.
In addition to finding an experienced trial attorney, it is also important to choose a law firm that accepts your type of personal injury case. There are several facets of personal injury law, each with its own rules and laws. Our law firm handles all of the following types of cases, and more:
