Vineyard Car Accident Lawyer

Were you involved in a car accident in Vineyard, CA, that resulted in injuries? If the auto accident was caused by the negligence of another driver, you may be entitled to compensation that can cover the cost of your ongoing medical bills, lost wages, vehicle damage, and other losses. At Child & Jackson Personal Injury Lawyers, our Vineyard car accident lawyers can help. We understand how devastating the aftermath of a motor vehicle collision can be and how important it is to recover compensation, as soon as possible. 

When you hire a car accident attorney at Child & Jackson, they will go above and beyond to help you obtain the fair settlement you deserve for an accident that was caused by the negligent, reckless, or careless actions of another.

How Can a Vineyard Car Accident Attorney Help?

Car accidents can result in severe injuries that can change your life forever. If you’re unable to return to work and are facing a long recovery, you must seek legal representation as soon as possible. At Child & Jackson Personal Injury Lawyers, our experienced car accident attorneys know what it takes to build a strong case that will prove liability and help you recover the fair settlement you’re owed. 

During this difficult time, our legal team can also help by:

  • Investigating the accident
  • Gathering and analyzing evidence
  • Consulting with experts
  • Assessing damages
  • Filing paperwork
  • Handling all interactions with the insurance company
  • Negotiating a fair settlement
  • Filing a lawsuit (if necessary)

As you focus on recovering from your injuries and moving forward with your life, our car accident attorneys will handle every aspect of your claim and fight aggressively to help you obtain a settlement that covers the cost of all accident-related damages.

Negotiating with the Insurance Company

The other driver’s insurance company may contact you after the accident to hear your side of the story. While the claims adjuster may seem helpful and friendly, they are not on your side. They will record your conversation and ask you questions that are confusing or misleading. Their goal is to get you to say something that could harm your case. They may even offer you a settlement at this time. If you’re out of work, accepting the settlement may be very tempting, especially if you’re out of work. Unfortunately, these initial settlement offers are never enough to cover the cost of your accident-related damages. If you do not accept the claims adjuster’s offer, they may become aggressive and try to pressure you, giving you a deadline to accept the settlement, and calling your home several times a day.

Fighting for your Rights

When you hire a car accident lawyer at Child & Jackson Personal Injury Lawyers, the harassment will stop. Your car accident attorney will handle every aspect of your case, including settlement negotiations. We will accurately value your damages before settlement negotiations begin, so we’ll know exactly what your claim is worth. We will not be intimidated by an insurance company and will not accept a lowball settlement offer. If the insurance company refuses to make a reasonable settlement offer, we will be prepared to file a personal injury lawsuit.

Auto Accident Litigation

Your car accident lawyer will file a lawsuit on your behalf, if the insurance company refuses to make a reasonable settlement offer. In most cases, once a lawsuit has been filed an insurance company is more willing to negotiate. We will continue settlement negotiations as we prepare for trial. If negotiations still are not successful during this time, we will proceed to trial where we can present a compelling argument that will help you recover maximum compensation for your losses.

I throughly enjoyed working with Erik and the Child & Jackson firm. I was unfortunate enough to be in an automobile accident, him and his team really took care of me and helped me win my case. I am satisfied with all the help and the outcome of the lawsuit. I would definitely work with Child & Jackson if the time comes again. Thank you for everything.

Child & Jackson came highly recommended and did a great job. Unfortunately, after my case settled for coverage maximum, I was in need of their services again. I didn’t even consider going anywhere else. Very caring people.

I was referred to Child & Jackson from a family/friend who had a good experience with them. To my surprise, I actually got to meet and speak with Mr. Child, who was so down to earth (we all know how attorneys can be intimidating). Mr. Child assured me he and his team will take care of me and they kept their words.
