Compensation for Your Car Accident

When someone else’s negligence caused a car accident, you have a right to pursue compensation. The value of your car accident claim depends on several factors, including the type and extent of your injuries, whether you were at fault for the crash, and the at-fault driver’s insurance policy limit. Our Fallbrook car accident lawyers will work with you to pursue compensation for:

• Medical bills
• Lost wages
• Pain and suffering
• Emotional distress
• Disfigurement
• Disability
• Reduced earning potential
• Reduced quality of life
• Loss of consortium

What If I Was Partially Liable for My Accident?

In many cases, the other driver’s insurance company might argue that you contributed to the accident. An experienced car accident attorney can help you determine whether this is true and, if so, how it will affect your damages. You may be considered partially or completely liable for your car accident if you:

• Broke a traffic law
• Admitted fault
• Provided a recorded statement that led to an admission of fault
• Posted about the accident online
• Were driving while distracted or impaired

If you were partially liable, you can still recover under the law of comparative negligence, which reduces your damages award by your percentage of fault. Our lawyers are familiar with the law of comparative negligence and can devise the best strategy to overcome liability disputes. If it turns out that you were partially liable for the crash, we will take all necessary steps to minimize your fault percentage or even eliminate it entirely.
