Securing Justice for Car Accident Victims in the San Fernando Valley for More Than 30 Years
While we are proud of our case results, we are even more proud of the profound effects these results have had on our clients’ lives. Here are just two examples of the numerous testimonials we have received from our valued clients:
“I suffered through a not-my-fault auto accident in January of 2010. Unfortunately[,] the opposing insurance company is well known for its habitual delays . . . Barry Goldberg did an excellent job of pursuing [the at-fault driver’s insurance company] until we reached a more than fair settlement. He is fair [and] knowledgeable, [and] kept me well informed through the months of interaction with opposing counsel . . . [He] achieved a great result considering all the circumstances. I would highly recommend him to anyone with a personal injury lawsuit! Should a prospective client wish to speak with me about working with Mr. Goldberg, please contact him for my information.”
“[After almost] a year of trying to resolve a case where I was rear-ended, a friend highly recommended Barry Goldberg. I wish I had done this a year ago, it would have saved me a lot of time and grief. Barry was so helpful in answering questions that I had previously been given ambiguous answers to. He took his time explaining the case and putting it into layman’s terms but most importantly, [he] gave me the confidence to move forward! I feel confident knowing that I am finally in good hands. Thank you Barry!“
Experienced Woodland Hills Car Accident Lawyers
Mr. Goldberg provides experienced, compassionate, and aggressive legal representation for individuals and families suffering due to all types of car crashes in the San Fernando Valley. Over the course of decades representing serious accident victims, he has successfully handled numerous cases involving accidents such as:
Distracted Driving Accidents
Distracted driving is a growing problem in the San Fernando Valley and throughout Southern California. Distracted drivers injure and kill innocent victims every day, and they deserve to be held accountable for their poor decisions. If you were injured in an accident caused by a driver who was talking, texting, eating or drinking, taking photos, or using social media behind the wheel, we want to help you win just compensation.
Drunk Driving Accidents
Drunk drivers can face criminal penalties as a result of their mistakes, but these penalties do nothing to compensate their victims in the wake of a traumatic accident. If you were injured or a loved one was killed in a drunk driving accident, Mr. Goldberg can help you pursue a civil claim against the drunk driver’s insurance company.
Hit-and-Run Accidents
Mr. Goldberg has extensive experience in cases involving hit-and-run accidents. These cases present many unique issues, and securing just compensation requires the ability to skillfully address these issues in a timely manner. If you need to seek compensation for an accident caused by a hit-and-run driver, Mr. Goldberg is the right choice to handle your case.
Negligent Driving Accidents
Along with distracted and drunk driving, there are countless other forms of driver negligence that can lead to avoidable accidents that cause life-changing injuries. Mr. Goldberg routinely handles car accident cases involving all types of driver negligence, including speeding, running red lights and stop signs, merging errors, tailgating, and other all-too-common mistakes.
Third-Party Negligence Accidents
In addition to negligent drivers, Mr. Goldberg frequently represents clients in cases against third parties whose negligence causes or contributes to their injuries. If a vehicle owner, property owner, employer, business, government entity, or private contractor is wholly or partially to blame for your accident, you can count on Mr. Goldberg to hold them accountable.
Uninsured/Underinsured Driver Accidents
Mr. Goldberg is widely recognized for his significant experience in cases involving uninsured and underinsured motorists. Mr. Goldberg routinely represents clients in uninsured/underinsured claims against their own insurance companies. When necessary, he does not hesitate to take the insurance companies to trial.
Vehicle Defect Accidents
In California, vehicle defect cases are subject to a special law known as “strict liability.” This means that accident victims do not need to prove negligence in order to recover just compensation. However, establishing that a vehicle or car part is defective is not easy – especially when you are going up against a major automobile manufacturer – and you need someone like Mr. Goldberg on your side who can secure a just outcome in your case.
FAQs: Woodland Hills, CA Car Accidents
How much does it cost to hire a car accident lawyer?
At Barry P. Goldberg, A Professional Law Corporation, it costs you nothing out of pocket to hire an attorney with 30+ years’ legal experience to handle your case. We handle all cases on contingency, which means that we only get paid if you win just compensation.
What are my options after a hit-and-run accident?
In most cases, the best option after a hit-and-run accident will be to file a claim against your own uninsured/underinsured motorist policy. However, it may also be possible to identify the hit-and-run driver through eyewitness accounts and other evidence, and it could be the case that a third party (such as the government entity responsible for constructing and maintaining the road) is partially to blame for your injuries, as well.
Can I pursue my car accident claim without an attorney?
You can, but it is not recommended. Here are just some of the risks you face when you try to pursue a car accident claim without legal representation:
- You won’t know how much you’ve lost (and, more importantly, how much you stand to lose in the future). As a result, you won’t know what is a fair settlement in your case.
- You won’t know how to tell when the insurance companies are leaving out key information or giving you misleading information about your claim or the terms of your policy.
- You won’t be prepared to litigate if a fair settlement offer isn’t on the table. The prospect of litigation is often one of the key factors that influences the insurance companies to settle for fair compensation.
