Auto Accidents
At The Law Offices of Eric P. Oren, Inc., we understand the engineering principles involved with
automobile accident reconstruction, the medical issues presented by the dynamics of car crashes,
and the ways in which automobiles are designed to protect their occupants. If you wait too long
to speak with a lawyer, it is possible that evidence in your case may be lost, witnesses may
disappear, and memories may fade. When we accept your automobile accident injury claim, we
immediately begin an investigation to secure and preserve evidence in your case.
Many people believe that claim resolution in automobile accidents is simple and easy, and that
insurance companies simply pay. In fact, this is often not the case. In California, an injured
person must prove fault in a claim against another driver. This means that your lawyers must be
prepared not only to negotiate, but to bring your case to trial if necessary.
Automobile accidents kill thousands of people per year across the United States. In California,
approximately 300,000 people per year are injured in automobile collisions. Because the minimum
liability limits in California require only $15,000 per person of insurance coverage, your
attorneys must understand how to investigate all avenues of loss, all available insurance
coverages, and if necessary, to find ways to collect above and beyond available insurance when
possible. Our office will negotiate with the responsible insurer, and if necessary, directly
with the defendant, to reach a fair and just settlement. However if settlement on terms favorable
to you are not available, our office is prepared to vigorously litigate your case in court.
