Award-Winning Car Accident Lawyers

Even if you practice careful driving, there is always a chance that you could be in a car accident due to the negligence of other motorists, faulty road conditions, and other negative factors. Over 30,000 individuals are involved in car accidents in the state of California each year. Whether you are in a minor fender bender or a high-impact collision, you can still suffer minor to serious injuries and costly property damage, which entitles you to significant compensation.

Mesriani Law Group is a top-notch legal service provider that consistently provides superior legal aid for over three decades to all victims of car accident cases throughout Los Angeles, California. Our highly skilled and experienced car accident lawyers are committed to protecting your rights and represent you throughout the entire process. We extend legal help to clients who have suffered varying degrees of auto accident injuries and are relentless in obtaining the maximum compensation they deserve.

Common Types of Collisions in Los Angeles

Understanding the nature of your accident is the first step in building a successful claim:

  • Rear-End Collisions: Accounting for nearly 30% of all traffic accidents, these are typically caused by tailgating or distracted driving. In most cases, the trailing driver is found negligent.

  • T-Bone (Side-Impact) Accidents: Often occurring at intersections when a driver runs a red light, these crashes frequently result in severe injuries to the head, chest, and abdomen.

  • Hit-and-Run: Under California Vehicle Code 20002, leaving the scene of an accident is a criminal offense. If the driver cannot be found, we help victims explore compensation through their own uninsured motorist coverage.

California Car Accident Laws You Must Know

Navigating a claim requires a strict adherence to state statutes:

Law What You Need to Know
Statute of Limitations You have two years from the date of the accident to file an injury claim and three years for property damage.
Fault-Based Insurance California requires drivers to carry minimum liability coverage ($15,000/$30,000 for bodily injury).
Pure Comparative Fault You can still recover damages even if you were partially at fault for the accident; your compensation is simply reduced by your percentage of fault.

Critical Steps to Take After an Accident

The actions you take in the moments following a crash significantly impact your legal rights:

  1. Seek Medical Aid: Even if you feel “fine,” internal injuries like brain bleeds or soft tissue damage may not be immediately apparent.

  2. Call the Police: A police report is the most authoritative document in your case, detailing the location, parties involved, and initial findings of fault.

  3. Obtain Evidence: Take photos of the vehicle damage, the surrounding scene, and any visible injuries. Collect witness contact information.

  4. Do Not Admit Liability: Avoid saying “I’m sorry” or discussing the accident with the other party’s insurance company. These statements can be used to limit your compensation.

  5. Consult an Attorney: An experienced lawyer will handle the negotiations, ensuring you don’t undervalue your claim or miss critical filing deadlines.

Recovering Compensation for Your Losses

We fight to ensure your settlement covers the full spectrum of your “damages,” which include:

  • Economic: Existing and future medical bills, lost wages, and vehicle repair costs.

  • Non-Economic: Pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life.

  • Wrongful Death: Financial and emotional support for families who have lost a loved one due to a negligent driver.

The Mesriani “No Win, No Fee” Guarantee

We believe that high legal fees should never prevent a victim from seeking justice. At Mesriani Law Group, we operate on a contingency basis. This means:

  • Zero Upfront Costs: You pay nothing to start your case.

  • Risk-Free: We only collect a fee if we successfully win your case and secure your compensation.

How Can a Los Angeles Car Accident Attorney Help?

Car accidents happen every day and at times you least expect it. In any car accident, the victims that suffer damages to their property and sustain minor to severe injuries must file a police report and pursue accident claims against the party at fault. This may be too much of a burden to handle alone and may result in an unfair amount of compensation or settlement being paid out due to the inexperience of the victim in fighting for their rights.

Let a certified Los Angeles car accident attorney from Mesriani Law Group help you recover the maximum compensation you deserve. Regardless of what type of motor vehicle accident your case covers, you can be sure to count on us to fight for your best interests. We will attend to your legal needs, so you can focus on your recovery and taking care of your family.

The following steps that we do to help you with your car accident case would be:

Step 1: Appraise the Case

For the car accident claim to take place, these three requirements must be met:

  • The other party or defendant is negligent
  • The plaintiff sustained injuries and damages
  • The injuries and damages were a direct cause of the defendant’s negligence

Step 2: Acquire Evidence

Getting as much evidence as possible after an accident is vital for your claim but should only be done if you are physically able to. Evidence from a car accident can be but not limited to pictures, videos, witness statements, and the like.

Step 3: Determine Liability

For a car accident that involves multiple people, it is sometimes unclear who is at fault or liable for the damages and injuries sustained by the plaintiff. The car accident attorney can determine the liability of the other party by proving:

  • Negligence: such as running a red light, speeding, swerving, etc.
  • Recklessness: DUI, drag racing, counterflowing, etc.
  • Intentional Misconduct: driver acts maliciously or intends to do harm to others.
  • Strict Liability: the accident caused by a defective product or fault in the vehicle due to poor manufacturing.

Step 4: Prove Damages

In personal injury car accident claims, the damages sustained by the victim falls into two categories:

a.) Economic Damages: are to compensate for computable out-of-pocket costs which often include past and future medical expenses, personal property damage, and lost earnings.

b.) Non-economic Damages: are to compensate for injuries sustained from the accident that is more complicated to allocate monetary value such as pain and suffering, inconvenience, mental and emotional distress, loss of society and companionship, defamation of character and humiliation, and so on.

Step 5: Negotiate a Settlement

When the damages are deliberated, the attorney will then start to negotiate a settlement. The negotiation can either be quick and easy or slow-going and inconvenient which depends on the insurance company. The attorney will make sure that the insurance company does not use bad faith tactics while making sure the plaintiff can get the maximum compensation.

“My insurance gave me the run around for a horrible car accident I was involved in. I was getting so frustrated until i contacted Rodney and his team. Not only was his staff super professional, they actually cared and followed up with me. My case has been settled and I couldn’t be happier. Hopefully I don’t get into any more accidents but if I do, I know where to go. Thanks for having my back Rodney!!!”
