Most people shouldn't call a lawyer. Some absolutely should. Let's figure out which one you are.
If you're reading this, you've probably been in an accident. And you've probably seen a lot of lawyer ads. They all say the same thing: "We'll fight for you," "Maximum compensation," "Free consultation."
Most of it is marketing noise. Let's cut through it.
Minor fender bender with no injuries? You probably don't need a lawyer. Your insurance will handle it. The other driver's insurance will cover your repairs. Move on.
Small property damage, no medical bills? Same answer. Insurance exists for this.
You're not sure if you were hurt? Wait. See a doctor. Then decide. Don't call a lawyer just because you're confused.
Lawyers cost money (even on contingency, we take a percentage). If your case is worth $2,000 and you hire a lawyer, you might end up with less after fees than if you'd just handled it yourself.
You were seriously injured. Broken bones, surgery, hospital stays, ongoing treatment. This isn't about a quick settlement—it's about getting what you actually need.
The insurance company is lowballing you. They offered $5,000, but your medical bills are $25,000. That's not a negotiation—that's them hoping you don't know your rights.
You're missing work and losing income. Your injuries aren't just medical—they're financial. You need someone who understands how to calculate what you've actually lost.
Someone else was clearly at fault. You were rear-ended. You were hit by a drunk driver. You slipped on an unmarked wet floor. The fault is obvious, but the compensation isn't.
In these cases, a lawyer isn't optional. It's necessary. Insurance companies have lawyers. You should too.
We work on contingency. That means:
This isn't charity. It's alignment. We only make money if you make money. So we have a real incentive to get you the best possible outcome.
Typical contingency fees are 33-40% of the recovery. We'll be clear about our fee structure from the start. No surprises.

A quick word from me
Before I represented injured people, I worked for insurance companies. I know how they think, how they evaluate claims, and how they try to minimize payouts.
Now I use that knowledge to help people get what they're actually owed.
I've been doing this for over 12 years. I've handled car accidents, motorcycle crashes, truck wrecks, and wrongful death cases across California.
I'm not going to promise you millions. I'm not going to tell you your case is a slam dunk. But if you have a legitimate injury case, I'll be honest with you about what it's worth and what we can do about it.

If I don't think you need a lawyer, I'll tell you that too. No hard sell. No pressure.
