I’ve Been Injured in an Accident:
What Do I Need to Know?
1. How do I know if I have a personal injury claim?
In Los Angeles, everyone has a legal responsibility to act with reasonable care to prevent injuries to others. This applies in most situations. If you’ve been hurt due to someone else’s negligence, you may have a valid personal injury claim.
Contact us for a free consultation. We’ll promptly investigate your case and gather evidence before crucial details are lost or tampered with. Don’t let the negligent party and their insurance company take advantage of you.
2. How can I help prove my personal injury claim?
Of course, the best way to prove your personal injury claim is to retain the services of a skilled attorney as soon as possible. After an accident happens, time is of the essence. The negligent parties and their insurance companies will make every effort to weaken or destroy your claim. They are not your friends.
Here’s how you can help to preserve your personal injury claim after your accident:
- Take photos of the accident scene at the time of the accident or soon afterwards.
- File a police report and/or an incident/accident report.
- Make sure you get contact information from any witnesses who may have seen the accident happen as well as those involved in the accident. You can do this at the time of the accident or even soon thereafter. Please see our Accident Help Guide for additional information
All of these things can help preserve and strengthen your case, especially if you put them into the hands of one of the top-rated personal injury lawyers in Los Angeles.
3. How are my medical expenses covered after I have been injured?
If you are injured and have insurance, it may cover some or all of your medical expenses. For anything that is not covered, our law firm, with its huge network of doctors to whom we refer injured clients, will help.
If you are injured at a premises, oftentimes the building’s owner will carry “MedPay” insurance. This insurance will pay for your medical expenses regardless of who is at fault.
If you are in a car accident, the Los Angeles has passed the No Fault laws that will cover your medical expenses.
If you do not have insurance or you have limited insurance, an alternate arrangement can be made in which the physician will deliver all necessary treatment. This becomes part of your claim for an additional money award in your lawsuit. Do not let the fear of medical expenses prohibit you from seeking legal action. We will ensure that our firm with its huge network of doctors will get you the best medical care available. We will recover the highest personal injury award possible for you and in addition, have the negligent party that cause your injury pay for your medical expenses
4. If I was working at the time of my accident, who pays for my medical expenses?
In the State of California, in most cases, if you are injured while working, Workers’ Compensation will cover all of your medical expenses whether you are “on or off the books.
At the gemian Law Group of Vinny Agemian, our team of highly experienced personal injury attorneys understand the complicated interplay between a personal injury action and a Workers’ Compensation claim. We will ensure that you obtain the maximum recovery possible for both your personal injury action and your Workers’ Compensation claim.
5. What are the types of personal injury cases?
6. Who will pay for my lost wages if I am unable to work?
If injuries from your accident causes you to lose work wages, there are many ways to recover your lost wages after an accident.
If you have disability or other types of insurance, you can receive compensation for your lost wages from your insurance company.
If you are injured while working, Workers’ Compensation will pay for your lost wages.
If you are injured in a motor vehicle accident, Los Angeles’s No-Fault laws provide for the payment of lost wages to these victims.
If you are not covered by insurance for lost wages, our law firm with its vast network of vendors and knowledge of agencies can help you attain the same living style that you had prior to the accident. Do not let the fear of lost wages stop you from filing a personal injury claim.
7. What types of damages can I recover in a personal injury case?
Following a personal injury accident, there are several types of compensation to which you may be entitled, including but not limited to:
- Past & Future Pain & Suffering
- Past & Future Medical Bills & Expenses
- Past & Future Lost Wages
This list is not exhaustive as you may be entitled to more. Our team of attorneys have years of experience in obtaining the highest awards possible for our clients and fighting for the compensation that you deserve. Call the Agemian Law Group of Vinny Agemian for a free consultation in order to discuss the compensation that you may be entitled to as a result of your personal injury case.
8. After I have been injured in an accident should I talk to an insurance company?
No. The best thing to do is to politely refer any representative from an insurance company to your attorney immediately. Unfortunately, insurance companies don’t have your best interests at heart. Often, they will tape record you and try to get you to take the blame for your accident, which can hurt your case in the future. We have decades of experience in dealing with insurance carriers and the tricks they play. We are wise to them! Let us stop them in their tracks!
9. Why Choose the Agemian Law Group of Vinny Agemian?
Personal injury lawsuits are hotly contested by the defendants’ insurance companies. These companies tend to be powerful, national and multinational companies with unlimited resources. They use their power to fight personal injury lawsuits and try to minimize paying injured victims their rightful compensation. In addition, they use the overburdened court system to delay and limit justice to accident victims and control the process.
That’s why you need the Agemian Law Group of Vinny Agemian. We will speedily and aggressively push your case towards trial and take control of the process from the at-fault party’s insurance company. At trial, the insurance companies lose the power to determine your just compensation to a jury of their peers… people like you and I who will be more sympathetic to your injuries.
While most lawsuits settle before trial, the insurance companies know that the Agemian Law Group of Vinny Agemian and his team of his battle-tested attorneys will either obtain the highest possible settlement for their clients or will aggressively litigate and push your case to trial so that you are awarded a money verdict from a jury. The insurance companies are terrified of losing their control of the process to a jury. The highest settlement awards are had when an insurance company fears this loss of control. We produce that fear.

KEEP TRACK OF YOUR INJURIES
Were you the victim of a personal injury accident? Here's why it is critical you call our office:
- Those who are responsible for the injuries of others are almost always quick to deny responsibility and even blame you for your accident and injuries.
- Insurance companies are not on your side. They will do anything to deny or drive down the value of your claim.
- There might be several liable parties. You will not know unless there’s a thorough investigation into your personal injury claim.
- There’s a limited amount of time to file a personal injury lawsuit. You risk losing out on valuable money by hesitating or waiting too long to assert your rights.
- It is hard to know what your case is worth, and you certainly don’t want to leave that calculation up to insurers.
