Personal Injuries
Personal Injuries
Personal injury cases arise when a person is injured due to another party’s negligence, recklessness, or wrongful conduct. These incidents can have a serious impact on a person’s physical health, emotional well-being, and financial stability. Victims may face medical expenses, lost income, long recovery periods, and uncertainty about the future. When someone else is at fault, injury victims have the right to pursue compensation under California law.
At Gharibian Legal, we represent individuals throughout Los Angeles who have suffered injuries due to accidents and negligence. Our firm is committed to protecting the rights of injury victims and helping them recover the compensation they deserve. If you or a loved one has been injured in an accident, our attorneys can evaluate your case and guide you through the legal process.
Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle
Personal injury law covers a wide range of accident and injury claims, including:
• Car accidents
• Motorcycle accidents
• Truck accidents
• Pedestrian accidents
• Slip and fall accidents
• Premises liability cases
• Rollover accidents

Common Injuries in Accident Cases
Accidents can result in serious and long-term injuries, such as:
• Broken bones
• Head and brain injuries (TBI)
• Neck and back injuries
• Spinal cord injuries
• Internal injuries
• Soft tissue injuries
• Cuts, bruises, and lacerations
• Emotional trauma
Even injuries that appear minor at first can develop into long-term medical issues. It is important to seek medical attention immediately after an accident.
How Negligence Affects Your Case
Most personal injury cases are based on negligence. Negligence occurs when a person or company fails to act with reasonable care, resulting in harm to another individual.
Examples of negligence include:
• Distracted driving
• Speeding or reckless driving
• Failure to maintain safe property conditions
• Ignoring safety regulations
• Drunk driving
• Failure to warn of hazards
If negligence can be proven, the injured person may be entitled to compensation under California law.
Compensation in Personal Injury Cases
Injury victims may be entitled to recover compensation for:
• Medical expenses
• Future medical care
• Lost wages
• Loss of earning capacity
• Property damage
• Pain and suffering
• Emotional distress
The value of each case depends on the severity of injuries and the impact on daily life.
Dealing With Insurance Companies
After an accident, insurance companies often attempt to minimize payouts or deny valid claims. They may pressure victims into quick settlements that do not fully cover long-term damages.
Having legal representation can help protect your rights and ensure that your claim is properly valued and supported with evidence.
Statute of Limitations
Personal injury claims in California are subject to strict deadlines. In most cases, victims must file a claim within a limited time period or they may lose the right to recover compensation.
Because deadlines can vary depending on the case, it is important to speak with an attorney as soon as possible after an accident.
