What To Expect When Contacting An Injury Lawyer in Orange County
Personal injury attorneys are something you are probably aware of in the periphery (and Lord knows enough of us advertise just about everywhere), but you probably don’t give us much thought until that accident occurs. It may be a car crash, a slip and fall somewhere in Orange County, perhaps an instance of sexual harassment or molestation. In all these instances there is hurt. It could be physical (as in a dog bite, car accident or slip, trip or fall), psychological or emotional. It could even be all of these together. My first advice to injury victims is always get the initial care that you need. If it’s as serious physical injury, that means getting medical treatment. (In some cases such as brain, shoulder or knee injuries, the sooner you get treated the better your chances of recovery.) If it’s the psychological suffering that comes as a result of harassment, counseling can be a source of healing. My point is, your physical or emotional well-being should be addressed first.
Seek medical care before calling your Tustin personal injury attorney.
Finding a personal injury lawyer to work with can come once your acute physical or emotional needs have been taken care of. After that the question becomes, which injury attorney do I choose? What are the criteria in selecting a car accident attorney or slip and fall lawyer in Tustin or the surrounding Orange County cities to represent your interests? First is probably location. If your injury occurred in Tustin, Santa Ana, Orange, Irvine or Anaheim you’ll most likely begin to search for personal injury attorneys in those cities. Your search may begin with Google, unless friends or family have worked with a certain attorney before and can give you a personal recommendation. If you’re just searching on your own for “personal injury attorney in Tustin, CA” odds are my name and website will be at the top of those search results. That’s great as far as it goes, but I’d hope you’d spend some time researching my track record and the verdicts and settlements I’ve won for my clients. Of course I’m proud of that and hope that it give you the confidence to make the initial call to my office to begin discussing your particular case. Once you have made that call, what can you expect from my team?

You’ll most likely deal with one of my staff members by phone. That’s your initial point of contact with us and I’m extremely proud of my staff for the way they take care of our clients and potential clients from the moment of that first call. I’ve assembled a caring team of legal professionals who understand that anyone who calls this office is most likely suffering from an injury. It’s not just a matter of physical pain or suffering, but on top of emotional pain is the added concern of having to look for and hire the right, most experience attorney to protect their rights and secure the most optimal settlement in their case.
You’ll find a sympathetic ear at the other end of the phone call and my staff will let you know exactly what we need from you in order to proceed. As I’ve stressed before, however, the great thing about our digital world nowadays is that much of what we need to do does not require your physical presence in our office which means you don’t need to worry about appointment with injury attorneys when your time is better spent recovering and healing.
When the time does come for us to meet you’ll find my staff and—I would hope—myself to be attentive to your needs in regards to your injuries. We know from experience how devastating injuries can be in many instances and how they affect your whole person. We think that the size of our practice creates a more caring environment than those of other personal injury megapractices. You will never be shunted off to some associate attorney or to a lawyer who’s “learning the ropes.” You’ll be dealing with me and three decades of experience in personal injury law, the vast majority of which have been spent right here in Tustin and Orange County.
You initial consultation is always free of charge and if we determine you have a case, you pay nothing until we win or settle your case. In some instances, such as medical malpractice cases, I will be completely honest and let you know if a case if viable or not. In cases such as these the complexity of medical malpractice sometimes creates a situation with diminishing returns. Regardless, I will be able to tell you exactly where you stand legally and how to move forward.
If doctors can be said to have a “bedside manner” I hope that my “courtside manner” will provide even more confidence in myself and my team and allow you to choose us as the personal injury legal team to represent your interests and protect your rights following an injury.
