How Much is My Personal Injury Claim Worth?

We collaborate with medical teams, accident reconstruction teams, police officials, and other key witnesses to evaluate the full extent of your damage to determine how much your claim may be worth. After all, no two cases are ever quite the same.
Once we understand the full scope of your damages and injuries, we can give you a better idea of how much your personal injury case is worth. However, our attorneys will fight to ensure that you get maximum compensation to pay for all damages, including:
- Medical expenses
- Lost wages, salaries, and benefits

How Much Does a Personal Injury Attorney Cost?
We work on a contingency basis at William D. Shapiro Law, Inc. You don’t pay us unless we can collect your money. We advance all costs to prepare and prosecute your claim. We collect a percentage of your settlement or award when we win your case.
Working on a contingency basis allows us to help anyone seek justice after an injury accident – not just those who can afford it. We believe in fighting for all injured clients, and we take on any risks upfront, so you don’t have to.
How Long Do I Have to File a Personal Injury Claim?
In California you have until two years after your injury-causing accident to file a claim. This is California’s statute of limitations for personal injury, and if you miss this deadline, you cannot file a future lawsuit seeking compensation for your injuries.
While two years may seem like a long time, valuable evidence is often lost or destroyed quickly after an accident. For this reason, it is important to contact an experienced personal injury law firm immediately after your accident. If your accident involved a government agency, you have even less time to file your claim, so act quickly!
TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE!
There are specific time requirements and mandates that apply to certain claims depending on the type of claim being made, age of the claimant and who the claim is being made against.
We urge you to contact counsel to find out what applies to your situation.
Failure to make, serve and/or file a timely claim or complaint will bar even the chance of recovery thus we urge anyone seeking to make a recovery, to immediately retain counsel without delay.
