Do You Need an Attorney?
One of the first questions people ask when they are hurt by someone else is whether they really need an attorney. At Bender and Gritz, we offer free consultations and we will only sign you up if we feel we can make a significant difference in the value of your case. If we can't do that, we will not sign you up as a client. So you risk nothing by calling us and having us review your situation.
Vehicle Accidents
Car, truck, and motorcycle accidents involve many issues and you will have a lot of questions when you are involved in one. What is my case worth? I don't have insurance. Who will pay for my doctor's visits? Who do I call for a rental car and how long can I have it? What am I entitled to for the damage to my car? We can answer all of these questions and explain exactly what we can do to help you and maximize the financial recovery in your case.
Medical Care
When you are the victim of an injury, no matter the case, our firm can provide you with a referral to whatever type of medical provider you need to get better. We have relationships with many of the top doctors in town. Whether your injury requires an orthopedic surgeon, neurologist, chiropractor, or physical therapist, you won't need insurance to treat with these doctors, and they will wait to get paid until your case is resolved.
Wrongful Death Claims
When you lose a loved one, no amount of money can compensate you for that loss. But if a death has occurred and someone else causes it, you need someone on your side to fight for you and to get the compensation you deserve. Having an attorney on your side will give you peace of mind and allow you to handle the personal things you need to handle and let us take care of the legal matters.
Dog Bites
In California, dog owners are strictly liable as a matter of law when their dog bites someone. If you're bitten by a dog, you may not know what to do because your neighbors or friends with the dog owner, or you may not know the owner and whether they have insurance to cover your doctor's bills. We can help guide you through the process, get you the needed medical care, and make a claim for your injuries. You may need to consult with a plastic surgeon or even a psychologist because you now fear dogs.
What is My Case Worth?
One of the first questions we always get is, what is my case worth and how long will this take? Every case is different, of course, and the value of a case is determined by many factors. However, during your initial free consultation with an attorney, we will give you a general idea of the value of your case, and during our representation of you, we will do all we can to maximize the value of your case. We are one of the largest and most experienced injury firms in San Diego, and we know how to obtain maximum payments for our clients.
