We Will Look for Every Potentially Liable Party
In California, drivers are required to carry liability limits of only $15,000 per person and $30,000 per accident. Many drivers disregard the law and do not carry insurance. With so many uninsured and under insured drivers on the road, it can be difficult to get full compensation for your injuries.
That is where we come in. A successful personal injury attorney does more than achieve positive results in litigation and settlement negotiations. A successful personal injury attorney will locate every source of compensation to maximize the client’s eventual recovery. Attorneys Ronald Haven and Kenneth Shepard have both practiced law since 1974. They have successfully represented hundreds of clients in that time and look beyond the obvious parties to determine every liable party. For instance, if the person who injured you was driving for work purposes, that person’s employer may share fault for your injuries.
