Types of Cases Handled by a Personal Injury Lawyer in Los Angeles

Ariel Law Group’s Los Angeles personal injury lawyers handle a wide variety of cases for clients across Southern California. From car crashes to slip and falls, our firm is committed to helping injury victims recover compensation and rebuild their lives.

Let’s explore the most frequent types of personal injury cases our team manages.

Car Accidents

Car accidents are among the most common personal injury claims in Los Angeles, largely due to the city’s heavy traffic and congested streets. Whether you’ve been rear-ended on the I-405 or sideswiped on the I-5, Ariel Law Group’s car accident lawyers know how to deal with insurance companies, gather key evidence, and fight for the compensation you deserve. We assist clients with everything from minor injuries or catastrophic harm, guiding them through insurance claims and litigation when necessary.

Motorcycle and Truck Accidents

Motorcyclists and truck drivers are particularly vulnerable on Los Angeles roads. The injuries from such accidents are frequently severe and complex, often involving multiple parties and insurance companies. Ariel Law Group’s personal injury attorneys have the experience to navigate these intricate cases and ensure victims receive the compensation they’re entitled to for medical costs, lost wages, and long-term care needs.

Slip and Fall / Premises Liability

If you’re injured due to a hazardous condition on someone else’s property, such as a wet floor in a grocery store or a broken stairwell, this falls under premises liability law. Ariel Law Group’s premises liability lawyers help victims prove property owner negligence and recover damages for injuries sustained in slip-and-fall and unsafe property accidents. We hold negligent property owners accountable so our clients can focus on recovery.

Workplace Injuries

Occupational injuries are common across Los Angeles, from falls and equipment accidents on construction sites to repetitive stress injuries in offices. While workers’ compensation typically covers many job-related injuries, Ariel Law Group’s workplace injury lawyers can pursue additional claims if third-party negligence contributed to the accident. Our firm helps clients understand their rights and maximize every available source of recovery.

Dog Bites and Animal Attacks

Under California’s strict liability laws, dog owners are responsible for injuries their pets cause, regardless of prior aggression. Dog bite cases can lead to physical scars and emotional trauma. Ariel Law Group’s Los Angeles dog bite attorneys work to secure compensation for victims under California’s liability statutes, ensuring they receive justice and support during recovery.

Pedestrian and Bicycle Accidents

With sunny weather and busy streets, Los Angeles sees frequent pedestrian and bicycle accidents, often involving distracted or reckless drivers. Ariel Law Group’s personal injury lawyers represent pedestrians and bicyclists, proving fault, negotiating with insurance companies or litigating when necessary. We fight for fair compensation so our clients can heal and move forward.

Others involve the heartbreaking loss of a loved one due to another’s negligence. Ariel Law Group’s catastrophic injury and wrongful death lawyers work to ensure families and survivors receive compensation for medical expenses, lost income, and emotional distress, helping families find closure and financial stability during a difficult time.

The Legal Process: How Ariel Law Group Assists You

From the moment you contact Ariel Law Group, our attorneys take on every step of your case with professionalism and care:

• Evaluating your case and determining liability
• Gathering evidence (police reports, witness statements, photos, medical records)
• Setting you up with doctors who work on a lien basis and will help aid your recovery
• Negotiating with insurance companies to maximize your settlement
• Filing lawsuits and representing you in court if a settlement isn’t reached
• Handling communications so you can focus on recovery
• Exploring all possible sources of compensation, especially in complex multi-party cases

Our firm works on a “contingency fee” basis, meaning you pay nothing unless we successfully recover compensation for you.

Statute of Limitations: Why Time Matters

In California, you generally have two years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury claim. However, in cases involving government agencies, deadlines can be much shorter, sometimes just six months. Missing these deadlines can permanently forfeit your right to compensation, which is why it’s crucial to contact Ariel Law Group’s Los Angeles personal injury lawyers as soon as possible after an accident.
