San Mateo Personal Injury Attorney
San Francisco Injury Claim Lawyer
Not every tragic accident entitles the injured person, or, in the case of a fatal accident, family members, to a claim for compensation. However, it is important, if a member of your family has sustained a serious accidental injury, such as brain damage or a spinal cord injury, that you discuss your case with an experienced lawyer to see that no source of compensation is overlooked. If you would like attorney Reuben J. Donig to review your case, please contact our San Mateo office to arrange a free consultation. Our personal injury firm serves clients throughout California's San Francisco Bay area.
Establishing liability for an accident or injury
Often a single event, such as a car or trucking accident, will entitle an injured person to several claims under automobile and health insurance policies, including provisions for personal injury protection and uninsured/underinsured motorist protection. Additional claims may be available if there was negligence on the part of another driver, the manufacturer of a defective product that contributed to the crash, or a government agency responsible for maintaining the roadway. It is important to identify all possible claims and coordinate them so the victim receives the maximum benefit possible.
We will discuss with you the strength of your case and likelihood of success at trial. Mr. Donig's experience allows him to negotiate effectively for you. You will decide if you want to go to trial or if a settlement is acceptable. A trial takes time and expense, but may be worthwhile in terms of your final compensation.
