Monterey is a beautiful place to live and work, but life as you know it can flip upside-down in an instant if you suffer injuries in an accident. We should all share the roads and other parts of Monterey as safely as possible. Still, unfortunately, some people or businesses might not act with the proper care, causing injuries to others.
When others behave negligently or recklessly, serious accidents can happen, leaving others injured and needing ongoing medical treatment. If you suffered injuries in a recent accident, you may not know where to turn or what you should do.
You have legal options following your accident. In addition to receiving prompt medical treatment for your accident-related injuries, you should discuss your case with a Monterey personal injury attorney as quickly as possible.
At Silva Injury Law, our legal team can meet with you to discuss the circumstances of your accident and determine if you are eligible to file a personal injury claim or lawsuit for monetary compensation. If you are eligible, we can begin working on your case immediately and pursue fair settlement compensation on your behalf.
If the insurance company will not take your case seriously or offer appropriate monetary damages, we can file a lawsuit on your behalf and litigate your case in court.
Our legal team's primary goal is to maximize the monetary compensation that you receive, either through the settlement or litigation process. Please contact our office today for a free case evaluation and legal consultation with an experienced Monterey personal injury lawyer.
Drivers must always drive safely and carefully. This duty includes refraining from alcohol consumption before and while driving a car.
Accident victims in drunk driving cases still need to prove the legal elements of negligence. However, the other driver might have been per se negligent if they were legally intoxicated when the accident occurred. In that instance, the accident victim will still need to prove the causation and damage elements of their personal injury claim or lawsuit.
Distracted Driving Car Accident Cases
Distracted driving car accidents happen when drivers ignore the road. Instead of watching the road, they might look at a cell phone or GPS or listen to loud music in their vehicle.
California prohibits talking on a handheld cell phone while driving. When a driver turns their attention away from the road-even for a short time-they may not see an approaching motor vehicle, bicycle, or pedestrian in the vicinity, causing a severe crash.
Nursing Home Negligence And Abuse Cases
Not every nursing home or elder law facility lives up to its duties of professionalism and compassion for others. When nursing home employees and others commit acts of negligence or intentional acts against residents-and a resident suffers an injury or illness as a result-someone acting on the resident's behalf can pursue a civil claim or lawsuit against the responsible facility or healthcare provider.
The experienced Monterey personal injury attorneys at Silva Injury Law can begin an investigation to determine if abuse or negligence occurred. If so, we will take the appropriate legal action on your behalf.
