What is Personal Injury?

Common Types of Accidents Our Firm Handles

If you were hurt or suffered property damage due any of these types of accidents, and someone else is to blame, you could be owed money for the damages. Some common incidents we deal with resulting in personal injury civil cases include:

What to Expect During Your Free Consultation

During your free consultation with our Torrance personal injury attorneys, we’ll review the details of your accident and evaluate whether you have a valid claim. Come prepared to discuss how the incident occurred, your injuries and medical treatment, and any documentation you have including police reports, medical records, or photos from the scene.

Our attorneys will provide an honest assessment of your case, explain your legal options, and answer any questions about the claims process. We’ll also discuss our contingency fee arrangement, which means you pay no upfront costs and we only get paid if we win your case. There is no obligation to hire us after this initial meeting.

Compensation Available in Torrance Personal Injury Cases

California law allows accident victims to recover both economic and non-economic damages. Economic damages include medical expenses (past and future), lost wages, loss of earning capacity, and property damage. Non-economic damages compensate you for pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, and permanent disability or disfigurement.

In cases involving particularly reckless or intentional conduct, you may also be entitled to punitive damages designed to punish the wrongdoer. Unlike some states, California does not cap compensatory damages in most personal injury cases. Our attorneys work with medical experts and economists to calculate the full value of your claim.

Steps to Take After a Torrance Accident

Protecting your health and your legal rights starts immediately after an accident. Seek medical attention right away, even if injuries seem minor—some conditions worsen over time. Document everything: take photos of the scene, your injuries, and any property damage. Get contact information from witnesses and obtain a copy of any police report.

Avoid giving recorded statements to insurance companies before speaking with an attorney. Adjusters are trained to minimize claims, and what you say can be used against you. Contact a Torrance personal injury lawyer as soon as possible to preserve evidence and protect your interests.

What If You Were Partially at Fault?

California follows a “pure comparative negligence” rule, meaning you can still recover compensation even if you were partially responsible for your accident. Your award is simply reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you are found 20% at fault and your damages total $100,000, you would still recover $80,000.

Insurance companies often try to shift blame onto victims to reduce payouts. Our attorneys investigate every case thoroughly, gather evidence of the other party’s negligence, and work to minimize any fault assigned to you.

Accidents in Torrance

In our area, accidents are unfortunately common. According to the California Highway Patrol, 617 injuries due to motor vehicle accidents were reported in Torrance just in 2011. Of those injuries, 51 involved bicycles, 37 involved pedestrians, and 28 involved motorcycles.

The California Department of Health also reports on injuries and accidents in our area. According to the Department of Health, in 2011 Los Angeles County reported 424 unintentional falls, 3,477 wrongful deaths, and 68,296 injuries requiring hospitalization.

These numbers tragically reveal that accidents resulting in serious injury or even death are not uncommon in the Torrance area. With such a high number of accidents each year, chances are you or someone you know may be injured in an accident. If that happens, you need to call an experienced attorney for quality legal assistance.
