Do I Need a Lawyer After a California Personal Injury Accident?
If your injury involves more than a few scrapes and bruises, you should speak to a skilled Lompoc personal injury lawyer.
If you’ve suffered a serious injury due to an individual’s or a business’s mistake, the recovery bills could be enormous. Insurance companies see the estimates and often try to escape taking the blame for what happened. They can work to convince you to accept a “lowball” injury settlement offer. A Maison Law representative can help you identify low offers that won’t cover all of your hardships and reject them to demand more.
You could also need legal representation if an insurance company is trying to blame you for an accident you didn’t cause. This is especially common in California traffic accidents. An insurance adjuster may convince you to accept some or all of the blame simply so they can get away with sticking you with all of your medical bills. A skilled lawyer backs up your accident claim with strong evidence so an adjuster can’t get away with changing the facts.
Lompoc Personal Injury Dangers
Lompoc families are usually in a rush every morning and they rarely get a chance to notice the dangers that pop up all around them. A distracted driver on Highway 1 or Central Avenue might ram the family vehicle at an intersection causing traumatic injuries.
A slip-and-fall on a puddle of water at a busy store like Walmart or Albertson’s might leave you or a loved one with head trauma. A tumble down a set of stairs in need of repair at your apartment complex could leave you with a broken bone. These accidents and others make reckless drivers, business owners, and landlords legally responsible for recovery costs and lost wages while you lose time at work.
Our Lompoc personal injury attorneys help victims in many different kinds of personal injury cases earn the money they need to make a full physical and financial recovery.
These are just a few of the different types of cases we help our clients earn the maximum in compensation for:
- Traffic Collisions: Accidents can occur in downtown Lompoc or in and around Vandenberg Space Force Base. A Lompoc car accident lawyer makes sure the blame in an accident remains squarely on a careless driver.
- Truck Crashes: Large vehicles leaving Vandenberg Space Force Base, the Lompoc Oil Field, or a local winery can create unavoidable and dangerous hazards on local highways. A truck accident lawyer can hold a truck driver and the driver’s employer liable for all recovery costs.
- Motorcycle Crashes: Highway 1 is a popular route for riders, but reckless maneuvers by drivers can send a motorcyclist to the hospital. Our Lompoc motorcycle accident lawyers don’t allow heartless insurance companies to attempt to blame motorcyclists for every accident.
- Bicycle Accidents: Cyclists, even when in bike lanes, face terrible risks when near distracted drivers. Children are also at risk when on their bikes in neighborhoods. Maison Law’s bicycle accident attorneys work hard to make sure victims have what they need to recover and get back on bikes.
- Pedestrians: People crossing busy Lompoc intersections and even parking lots may be sent to the ground by a dangerous motorist. A pedestrian accident lawyer protects victims while they are in the hospital and unable to work.
- Slip-and-falls, trip-and-falls, and premises liability: A fall at a local store or at a residential property leaves property owners and property management companies responsible. They must take action to remove threats to their visitors, clients, tenants, and others before they can get hurt. A premises liability lawyer defends the victims of accidents at supermarkets, recreational businesses, theme parks, and other public places.
- Dog Bites: A trip to Barkin Park in Lompoc may leave you vulnerable to a dog bite. Dog owners are held accountable for dog bite injuries and must help you pay for the medical care you need to get on your feet again.
- Construction, industrial, and agricultural accidents. Any other workplace accidents.
- Defective Products.
- Nursing Home Abuse.
- Medical Malpractice.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I have after a personal injury accident to file a claim?
In California, most personal injury cases have a two-year time limit from the injury date. You must file your claim within this period to seek compensation.
Will I have to go to court to secure compensation for my injury?
Not usually, the vast majority of personal injury claims are settled out of court. Insurance companies want to avoid the cost of going to court and the embarrassment of having to appear before a judge.
