Southern California Motor Vehicle Accidents

Los Angeles Car Accident Lawyer ● Motorcycle Accident Attorney

When an insurance company adjustor looks at an injury claim after a car accident, he or she looks at the injury and begins to think of a fixed dollar amount; this much for a broken bone, this amount for a brain injury.

At the Law Offices of Steven L. Martin, when a person comes into our office after a car or truck crash we don't look at the injury, we look at the whole person. We don't see dollar signs; we see a life impacted by tragic circumstances. Our focus is on helping injured people achieve the financial recovery they need to get back on their feet and back to their life.

Attorney Steven L. Martin and his colleagues represent people who have been seriously hurt or suffered the death of a family member in a car accident, truck accident, or motorcycle crash along California highways, 110, 405, and 10. If you were injured and you believe someone else's negligence was the cause, know your rights. Talk with an experienced injury attorney at the Law Offices of Steven L. Martin in Los Angeles.

Recovering Your Life and Your Health

Two people who have suffered the same injury may be affected very differently by that injury, depending upon their job duties and their lifestyle. That's why it's so important to view an accident case in the context of the whole person. For example:

• An auto mechanic suffers a hand injury in a truck wreck and loses the strength and dexterity he needs to work at his auto repair garage
• An accountant suffers a similar hand injury in a motorcycle accident and is able, with the use of adaptive equipment, to do some but not all of the tasks he previously did.

The compensation these two people receive should be based not upon the type of injury, but upon the impact that the injury has on their quality of life and their real financial losses, today and into the future.

The Value of Working with an Experienced Attorney

Every day people settle with insurance companies for a fraction of the financial settlement that they might have received - and that they might have needed - because they didn't understand the full extent of their injury or the value of their case.

Mr. Martin has been helping people injured in car and truck crashes for more than 30 years. Whether in settlement negotiations or in trial court in a personal injury or wrongful death case, he provides aggressive representation backed up by the facts. Thorough preparation, careful investigation, and persuasive presentation add up to satisfactory verdicts and settlements in motor vehicle accident cases.
