Personal Injury Law

Injured due to the Negligence of Another? Call a Lawyer!

By Norman Gregory Fernandez, Esq.

Folks this is not rocket science. Lately I received many calls from people in California that have suffered a personal injury due to the negligence of another. Rather than calling me right away, these individuals chose to either try to deal with the defendants themselves, or they tried to deal with the defendant?s insurance company or risk management department themselves. What do you think happened? Nothing, except that the injured parties may have screwed up their cases!

Time and time again I have told injured parties by way of consultations, articles that I have written on the Internet and on my personal injury website; only a fool has himself for a client!

I was just telling a nice lady early today; do you expect a supermarket to automatically pay your doctors bills just because you slipped and fell in their store? If supermarkets were to pay every claim they would make less of a profit! They count on people who are injured to either not call a lawyer, or not pursue a claim. Their risk management departments literally exist for one reason; to manage risks! In other words, to minimize at all cost what they pay out for personal injury claims.

Bottom line; if you have been injured due to the negligence of another in the State of California, do not play games with your case, call me for a free consultation at 800-816-1529 extension 1. You literally have nothing to lose, and potentially everything to gain! You should call me within 24 hours of the incident which caused your personal injury if possible.

Above all, remember; ANYTHING YOU SAY TO THE DEFENDANT OR WITNESSES IN YOUR CASE CAN BE USED AGAINST YOU! BEFORE YOU START TALKING ABOUT YOUR CASE, CALL ME FIRST!
