Elements of a personal injury case

In any personal injury case the lawyer must prove that negligence or liability exists, and that the at-fault party’s actions caused the injury or damage. Resources for compensation must also be available—either through insurance or assets. When our Santa Barbara personal injury attorneys meet with you to discuss your injury, we listen and ask questions about these factors, which are necessary for evaluating your prospects of pursuing a case.

We have access to traffic specialists and engineers who can analyze the circumstances of an accident along with healthcare practitioners for medical opinions. Professional resources help us to:

• Develop an effective case strategy
• Gather evidence to prove negligence or liability
• Arrive at a monetary figure that covers past, present, and future medical care and financial losses

Dealing with insurance companies

Our injury attorneys in Santa Barbara have extensive experience dealing with insurance companies. We directly handle all communications with the defendant’s insurance company so you do not have to worry about making statements that can damage your case or signing papers that commit you to an unfair settlement. We are skilled negotiators who know how to leverage settlements in our client’s favor and know when to take a case to trial. From the outset, we handle all legal aspects of your case and guide you through the claims process.

Our full intention is to see you receive the compensation you deserve and are entitled to receive by law. We can explain what damages you are entitled to receive along with our approach and strategy for pursuing your case.
