Injury

If you need surgery, you may leave the hospital with a $60,000 bill. If you don’t have insurance, our network of doctors can arrange treatment and surgery on a lien, so that you don’t have to suffer with back trouble for the rest of your life.

We handle all types of personal injury claims that cause back injury, including:

• Motor vehicle accidents
• Car crashes
• Motorcycle wrecks
• Truck collisions
• Construction accidents
• Slip and fall accidents
• Boating mishaps
• Work-related injuries

Get Treatment Regardless of Health Insurance

If you have a herniated disc and do not have health insurance, we can help you get treatment where the medical facilities agree to defer payment until your case has been concluded. You simply promise to pay for the treatment by signing a lien on your accident case.

We will connect you with a medical finance company, which will pay for the cost of your surgery and take a lien on any proceeds that you recover, either from another party’s insurance company or as the proceeds of a lawsuit. When your personal injury lawsuit is resolved, you will be entitled to any recovery above and beyond the costs of treatment and attorney fees.

We handle all types of claims involving traumatic brain injury or brain damage, including automobile, truck and motorcycle accidents, as well as construction site and slip and fall injuries. Traumatic brain injury is often caused when the head strikes a solid object, such as the dashboard or window of an automobile. In many instances, there is brain injury even though there are no visible signs of trauma.

The key signs to look for to identify brain injury include loss of consciousness, an inability to remember events immediately before or after the injury, or a feeling of disorientation or confusion at the time of the accident. Other symptoms include:

• A persistent lack of energy or motivation
• Ongoing low level head or neck pain
• Difficulty concentrating, making decisions or remembering routine tasks
• Sluggishness or difficulty in thinking or speaking
• An inability to sleep or to stay awake
• Any loss of or change in the senses of taste, smell, hearing, vision or touch

The California workers’ compensation laws generally provide the only means of recovery for workers in claims against their employers. The statute identifies specific dollar amounts that can be recovered for specific injuries. If you have been injured because of the negligence of someone other than your employer, or worked on a job as an independent contractor or as an employee of a company that provided contract services to another company, you are not necessarily limited to the recovery provided in the workers’ compensation statutes.

We have seen third party liability for work accidents in a number of situations:

• Employees of a subcontractor on a construction job may have a right to sue the general contractor or the owner of the building for negligence
• A delivery vehicle driver, including a local newspaper delivery person, may have a right to sue the owner of the property to which goods are delivered or the owner of the goods being delivered
• An employee may be able to sue an independent contractor whose employee acted negligently
• An injured worker may be able to sue the third party owner or lessor of defective equipment or machinery, such as a forklift.
