We have written over 25 articles on auto accident subjects for you to review if you desire. See our Resource Centers for more, or these specific topics Car Accidents, Accident Investigations, Witness Investigation, Property Damage, Finding an Attorney, Injury Guide, Special Issues. Why would our lawyers be willing to give so much free information on handling an auto accident case? Simple:  We know that you or someone you know will someday truly need a personal injury or auto accident attorney. Cases of large magnitude or difficult liability always need an experienced and qualified personal injury attorney. Some people simply do not want to hassle handling their own case. When you do need such an attorney, we hope you will think of our attorneys because of the time and effort we spent advising Orange County and California citizens of their rights. We are available 24 hours per day at 1-888-752-7474, or you may also Contact Us Online.

Another reason we offer this advice is because insurance companies have become too aggressive with the adjustment of claims. While insurance companies will on the phone sometimes assure you they are accepting liability, it is never put in writing, which is your first clue of trouble. Insurance companies want you to give a recorded statement on liability or damages while you may be unprepared or inadvertently say the wrong thing about your injuries.  Many clients do not want to be perceived as making a "mountain out of a mole hill", saying things like "I am a little sore", but with devastating results. Review this link before you give any statements (Giving your recorded statement).

Insurance Companies want medical authorizations without committing that they will do anything for you. Later they tell you they cannot promise to pay all your medical bills until after you are done treating. Most of the time they discount virtually every medical bill. See this link on settling claims.

In the meantime, you need treatment, need a rental car, and you may be unable to work. Without an attorney, many auto accident victims simply do not know what to do, so they delay treatment causing damage to their claim. For some help, see our links for your property damage claims (Property Damage). If you are hurt and need medical attention, an experienced attorney can help you select doctors who specialize in accidents or certain common injuries, or review our attorney link on Your injury resource guide. Wage loss is very real and devastating. If you are experiencing wage loss issues we can help document your loss so that you recover fully. If you think insurance carriers are going to do the right thing by you, think again and visit the link (Can You Always Depend Upon the Insurance Company To Do What Is Right?).

We have heard literally hundreds of stories of people just like you that do not want to seem litigious after an auto accident, and don't want to run out and hire a lawyer. But you must consider and protect yourself and your family by at least talking to a qualified auto accident attorney or read through many of the articles here.

We hope to help auto accident victims even if they do not call us, by giving the detailed information in these web pages to get advise. If you or someone you know needs help, please give our attorneys a chance to personally help you with answers to your concerns. Call 1-888-752-7474. It is always free to talk with us.
