Santa Ana Personal Injury Attorneys


If you have been injured and you either know or suspect that someone else caused your injury, it is important to explore your legal options at your earliest possible convenience. Injury victims are afforded rights under the law provided that certain criteria are met. The long and short of it is that if someone owed you a duty of care under the law and then in breaching that duty by behaving negligently, recklessly, or with dangerous intent, caused your injuries, you may be able to hold that party responsible for financial damages. The concept of “breach of duty of care” is a complex way of saying that if an individual or legal entity is expected to behave in a certain way under the law and they don’t, they can be held liable if their choices result in someone’s injuries. For example, if a local law insists that property owners must remove debris from the sidewalks in front of their property within a reasonable amount of time, this is an illustration of a property owner’s duty of care to those who walk on the sidewalk in front of their property.

Car Accidents

Car accidents occur with starling frequency on California roads. As a result, our firm has handled all manner of car accident cases. Our extensive experience extends from relatively straightforward car accident cases, as well as those that are complex, and those that are complex to a degree that is unusual. Whether your car accident resulted in minor, moderate, severe, or catastrophic injuries (or fatal injuries to a loved one), know that we can help.

It is important that before you speak with our firm, you do not admit fault or make any assumptions about any causation or fault issues that may affect your case. There are many reasons why cars crash and the causes of car crashes aren’t always as they first appear. Additionally, California is a comparative negligence state, which means that even if you were partially to blame for what happened, you may still be entitled to significant compensation. If you admit fault, you may compromise your ability to obtain the full amount of compensation to which you are entitled.



Medical Malpractice

Medical mistakes are a leading cause of death in the United States. It isn’t always easy to know when a medical mistake has occurred because patients aren’t always in a position to witness those mistakes happening in real time. All too often, patients are left wondering if the medical complications from which they are suffering or an apparent delay in a specific diagnosis resulted from negligence on part of their healthcare providers. You don’t need to know for sure whether a medical mistake or a physician’s deviation from the standard of care owed to you has resulted in the challenges you’re experiencing. It is our job to know what questions to ask and what information to seek in order to determine whether you have strong grounds to file legal action at this time.

Do not hesitate to explore your legal options simply because you are unsure of whether you have grounds for a case. Waiting too long to speak up may result in the statute of limitations running on your case, which will bar you from the ability to seek compensation moving forward. On the other end of the spectrum, if you have already been offered a settlement by someone involved in your situation, do not accept that settlement until we have reviewed it. You deserve a settlement that is fairly valued and that does not contain terms that could infringe upon your rights as a victim of medical negligence.


Premises Liability

Santa Ana is home to many tourist attractions, as well as many public spaces and private businesses that provide opportunities for work, entertainment, and commerce. Unfortunately, not all of these spaces are maintained in the ways they need to be according to federal, state, and local laws. If you have been harmed on either private or public property and something about the property itself contributed to your injuries, you may be able to file a successful personal injury claim against the property owner or the property manager. This area of the law is particularly complex and dependent upon specific details related to the purpose of the visit, the purpose for which the property is ordinarily used, and the responsibilities of the property owner and property manager under the law. No two premises liability cases are ever exactly the same. As a result, our legal team will need to evaluate the unique circumstances surrounding your accident before we can provide you with a better sense of whether you can hold a property owner liable under the law at this time.


Trucking Accidents

Given the amount of freight that is transported on California’s freeways and surface streets by large commercial trucks on a daily basis, it is perhaps unsurprising that California has one of the highest truck accident rates in the nation. If you have been involved in a truck-related accident, you may be able to sue other drivers involved in that accident, the trucking company that employs a truck operator, or any other legal entity that may have contributed to your harm. Truck accident cases tend to be complex because there tend to be many “players” involved in the causation of such accidents. Thankfully, because our firm has extensive experience with truck accident cases, you’ll be able to feel confident that no responsible party will be let “off the hook” for the harm you’ve suffered as a result of your collision.



Work Injuries

Workers who have been injured on the job must oftentimes pursue an alternative route to seeking compensation beyond the personal injury process. The California workers’ compensation system is a no-fault undertaking. In exchange for extending benefits to injured workers regardless of how they were injured on the job, their employers enjoy limited liability for any role they may have played in a worker’s harm.

As a result, if you are entitled to file for workers’ compensation benefits, the chances are high that you will not be able to sue your employer directly. However, if a third party contributed to your harm, you may be able to sue them in a third-party lawsuit. If you are not eligible for workers’ compensation benefits because you work as an independent contractor or your employer is exempt from coverage requirements, you may be able to sue anyone who contributed to your injuries per the ordinary structure of a personal injury lawsuit. If you are unsure of which of these opportunities is available to you and applicable to your situation, that is okay. Our legal team can clarify your options and help you pursue all applicable methods of obtaining any compensation to which you may be entitled.



Accidents Resulting in Wrongful Death

If you are grieving the loss of a loved one, and you know or suspect at the death of your loved one was caused by another’s actions or inactions, you may be able to file a successful wrongful death and/or successful survivor action under California law depending upon the circumstances surrounding your loss. If successful, your legal action may allow you to collect damages related to your loved one’s medical care prior to their death, lost earnings, funeral and burial expenses, loss of financial support, and other damage is related to both your loved one’s suffering and your suffering in the wake of your loss. Our legal team has extensive experience representing the families of injury victims who have lost their lives in preventable ways caused by others. We therefore have a strong sense of how to navigate these legal matters with the utmost respect for both the memory of the deceased and for those surviving loved ones seeking justice.

It can be undeniably difficult to attend to practical matters when you are grieving a profound loss. However, it is important to explore your legal options now before the financial burdens associated with your loss begin to affect your family. You don’t need to know for sure whether you have grounds for legal action to ask us questions in a free consultation setting. Making this effort now may make a world of difference to your family moving forward.

The Most Dangerous Industries in the U.S. Workers face a risk of injury while engaging in work-related duties , no matter which industry employs them. Desk workers regularly suffer from repetitive stress injuries, while hospitality and health care workers are physically attacked with surprising frequency. Construction workers often risk serious falls while working at dangerous heights while agricultural workers develop occupational illness at greater than average rates due, in part, to the chemicals used in fertilizers and pesticides. No matter where you work, your work is – in one way or another – dangerous. However, there is no question that some U.S. industries are more dangerous than others. It’s important to both raise awareness about the most dangerous industries in the United States and to highlight that every industry is dangerous in its own way. By spotlighting the most dangerous industries, American law makers and regulators can better ensure that these industries become progressively safer. By reminding all workers that American employment is inherently dangerous in various ways, “low-risk” industries will avoid complacency when it comes to worker safety. While keeping in mind that all industries are dangerous in unique ways, it’s important to familiarize yourself with the most dangerous industries in America. Even if you don’t work in one of these industries, understanding the hazards that affected workers face can help you to develop empathy for them and can help you to serve as a more informed worker safety advocate within your own industry. If you work in one of these particularly hazardous industries, it is important to understand your rights under the law, in the event that you suffer harm while on the job and you need to avail yourself of any opportunities for legal and/or financial recourse that are available to you. The Industries that Suffer the Highest Rates of Fatal Injuries According to the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics, the following 10 industries experience the highest rates of fatal injury annually per 100,000 workers: Fishing & hunting related workers: 99.8 per 100,000 Logging workers: 84.3 per 100,000 Aircraft pilots: 48.6 per 100,000 Roofers: 45.2 per 100,000 Recyclable materials collectors: 35.0 per 100,000 Iron/Steelworkers: 33.4 per 100,000 Truck drivers: 26.8 per 100,000 (987 total – the highest among all industries) Farmers and ranchers: 24.0 per 100,000 Lawn service and groundskeeping workers: 21.0 per 100,000 Power-line installation and repair workers: 18.7 per 100,000 Incredibly, these top 10 deadly industries only represent a small fraction of the more than 5,000 Americans killed as a result of work-related injury and occupational illness each and every year in the U.S. Additionally, fatal data estimates that every year, approximately 3 out of every 100 workers is non-fatally injured while on the job in ways that are serious enough to require medical attention and/or time away from work to seek treatment and/or recover. Some of the U.S. industries that experience the most worker deaths overall are not included in the above list because they employ so many workers that their death per 100,000 worker ratio isn’t as high as some other industries. However, it is also worth noting which U.S. industries experience the most fatalities overall, as they are significantly hazardous in their own right. The following industries experienced the most worker deaths (numbered in parenthesis) in 2017 alone: Construction (971) Transportation and warehousing (882) Fishing, hunting, and forestry (581) Professional services (532) Government industries (473) Manufacturing (303) Retail industries (287) Hospitality industries (262) Public administration (205) Education and health industries (189) Again, as shocking as these statistics are, they don’t take into account the hundreds of thousands of non-fatal (yet potentially debilitating) injuries that occur in industries all across the U.S. Although the issue of worker safety doesn’t get nearly as much media or governmental attention as it should, it remains a critically pressing issue in California and throughout the rest of the country. Retaliation and Safe Workspace Concerns If you’re concerned that exploring your legal rights will lead to retaliatory behavior on the part of your employer, know that the legal consultation process is confidential. This means that your employer will not be alerted to the fact that you’ve spoken with an attorney unless you choose to pursue legal action. Should you choose to pursue legal action, know that retaliation in response to a worker’s exercise of their legal rights is unlawful. Therefore, if your employer retaliates against you for exercising your rights as an injured worker , a reputable attorney can aid you in both protecting your livelihood and holding your employer accountable for their unlawful behavior. Additionally, if you’re concerned that whenever you return to work, you’ll be returning to an unsafe work site, an attorney can help you to file an anonymous worksite inspection request with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration . This agency conducts random workplace inspections all over the U.S., so there will be no reason for your employer to suspect that you requested an inspection. If OSHA finds that your employer is violating safety regulations, they can be fined and legally pressured to address outstanding safety hazards present on site.
