Santa Monica Personal Injury Lawyer

Personal Injuries Can Leave a Lasting Impact. Let Us Help You Overcome Them. 

You Shouldn’t Have to Suffer for Others’ Actions

Your Injuries Are Severe

A personal injury can leave you hospitalized and unable to care for yourself. That’s distressing, and it can be difficult or even impossible to recover.

Insurance Companies May Not Help

Your insurance company should be your first line of defense, right? Unfortunately, they may be focused on protecting their interests, not your health and recovery.

Your Expenses Are Piling Up 

Recovering from an accident isn’t cheap. The debt collectors may already be seeking payments, and you may be unable to work during this time.

What Can Manard Law, LLC Offer? 

In the aftermath of a personal injury, you need help. But there are hundreds of lawyers in the state to choose from. What makes Manard Law, LLC so different? Here are just a few ways we set ourselves apart from other lawyers in Santa Monica. 

Proven Track Record

When your future and your finances are on the line, you don’t want a personal injury lawyer who’s new at the job. You want someone who’s proven themselves in the courtroom many times. That’s what our lawyers can offer, with over fifteen years of experience and more than one hundred trials handled.

We Don’t Settle for Less 

Many lawyers would rather settle quickly, avoiding any conflict to get your funds. But an easy case won’t always get you the funds you need to recover. We’re willing to take your claim to court to get you the settlement you’re due. Our multi-million-dollar wins for several clients are proof we care. 

Justice for the Injured 

At Manard Law, LLC, our first priority is helping you recover. We’re prepared to seek what you need for your recovery so you don’t have to worry about the costs of getting justice. We’re even paid on a contingency fee basis, which means we only get paid if your claim is a success.

Your Steps After an Injury

If you’re injured, you may have no idea where to begin. How do you know you have a claim? What steps can you take to secure your future as you recover? Here are the first steps you need to take after an injury:

Get Medical Attention 

When you’re hurt, immediate medical care can be life-saving. Brain injuries, spinal cord damage, and internal bleeding can turn dangerous or deadly if you don’t seek treatment right away. Even if you feel fine, get help.

Notify the Authorities 

In some cases, your insurance company may be involved in your case, or you may need to report your injuries to the police. Your lawyer can help you speak with these authorities without taking the blame.

Know Your Claim’s Value

Your insurance company may offer you a settlement quickly. But do you know that settlement will cover all your hardships and suffering, or damages? Talk to your lawyer for help calculating your economic and non-economic damages. 

Speak with a Lawyer

You don’t have to juggle all this information and take these steps alone. Your lawyer is here to make your case easier so you can focus on your recovery and your family, not on the courtroom.

How much does a personal injury lawyer cost? 

When you have debt collectors seeking repayment and you have other expenses to cover, the costs of a personal injury lawyer may be a big concern. Fortunately, you shouldn’t have to worry about the costs. 

Our lawyers work on contingency fees. That means our pay is based on the funds we’re able to win for you. If we don’t win, we don’t get paid for your case. 

What damages can I seek? 

When you’re hurt and suffering, you may be due compensatory damages. This includes economic and non-economic damages, covering both the financial and emotional impact of a serious injury. 

In cases where the at-fault party was reckless or intended to harm you, you may also be due punitive damages. These damages are meant to punish the wrongdoer and to deter future behavior like theirs. 

What is my settlement worth?

The value of your settlement depends on the details of your claim, such as the expenses and suffering you experienced. Luckily, your lawyer is here to help you maximize your settlement. They can take a look at the suffering you endured, and they can help you go after funds that cover all those concerns. 

How is a settlement paid out? 

After your case is settled, any debts are paid for your claim, including your hospital bills and attorney fees. From there, you may choose to receive your remaining settlement as a lump-sum payment, or you may rely on regular payments from your structured settlement. 

Do I really need a personal injury lawyer? 

A personal injury lawyer may not be required, but they can be an invaluable resource during your lawsuit. They can represent you in the courtroom, gather evidence for your claim, and maximize the funds you’re due for your injuries.
