When You Don’t File A Claim

Posted by One Law Group Auto Accident Attorneys

If you are a commuter, you might found yourself inching along on your way home in the usual morning bumper-to-bumper traffic. As you pass the accident that has been causing the traffic and glare hatefully, but you’re also glad no one was seriously injured. We never want to be those people, especially in traffic. But you know when you will feel that dreaded sudden jolt as the car behind you wasn’t paying attention, didn’t stop on time, and just barely touched your rear bumper. And even though it feels minor, you both have to pull over to the nearest shoulder. Generally, there’s a little bit of damage in fender benders, but every once in a while, you’ll be surprised to see that there is no obvious damage to either of your cars. Not a scratch or dent in sight. What do you do in this situation? What if you were the at-fault driver and there’s a risk that the other driver involved will file a surprise and maybe trivial claim? Even if there is no visible damage, or maybe there’s only a small scratch or paint mark, there could be a small amount of damage that you did not notice. This...

When your totaled car has been paid off

Posted by One Law Group Auto Accident Attorneys

in Personal Injury

When you total your car, it can ruin your whole year, especially if you still owe money on it. Nowadays, it has been an increasingly common issue since there are more people who need to take out longer car loans in order to afford a vehicle. According to finder.com, around 44% of American adults depend on an auto loan to pay for a car. If your vehicle is totaled and you owe more money on it than what it is actually worth, your car insurance company will only pay for the actual cash value (ACV). The ACV is the fair market value of your vehicle before it was in an auto accident. The money from your insurance wouldn't even go directly to you. Since your car is financed, it will most likely go straight to the bank. Another scenario is that you would get a check made out to you, which you will need to sign and send to your finance company. The car accident attorneys at One Law Group in Beverly Hills are available to help you gather the information you need in order to file a claim against the at-fault driver. They can even approach the insurance company on...

Get Compensated for Your Slip and Fall Accident

Posted by One Law Group Auto Accident Attorneys

in Personal Injury

Slip and fall accidents are personal injury cases, and plaintiffs may get compensated for damages resulting from the accident. If you or someone you know experienced a slip and fall and need legal representation, call One Law Group, PC in Beverly Hills, CA at (844) 626-1LAW to see if you are eligible for damage compensation. Our highly-skilled attorneys will help you reach a settlement in your case. However, because every case differs in circumstance, the amount of compensation you’ll receive is affected by a few conditions. Here’s what you should know before filing a slip and fall claim. “Slip and fall” cases essentially refer to an accident where a plaintiff slips, trips, stumbles, and falls on a business or person-owned property. If the person is injured or experiences pain after the fall, then the property owner can be held liable if he or she was aware of the potentially unstable or slippery surface and chose not to act upon it. This is referred to as “negligence,” or the failure of the defendant to act reasonably to promote care and safety on the property. Determining if a business or person is at fault for your slip and fall damages is a complicated process that...

Uber Self Drive Vehicle Kills | Beverly Hills Personal Injury

These types of accidents may become more common as the day of self-driving cars comes to be more prevalent in society. Therefore, it behooves you to know a good personal injury attorney who can help you receive the compensation you need to pay for the right medical treatment.

Posted by One Law Group Auto Accident Attorneys

in Personal Injury

Medical treatment on a lien basis is not very difficult to obtain. However, a person must be aware that their treatment can be covered. This is why the personal injury attorneys in Beverly Hills at One Law Group, PC take the time to inform you of all your options after your injury. Unfortunately, not all people who suffer a personal injury can afford proper medical care and some may not have sufficient medical insurance to cover treatment. However, a personal injury case can help with sufficient medical treatment that can be paid for on a lien basis. A lien is a mandate of payment which can be in conjunction with a personal injury case. Treatment on a lien basis means that a patient doesn’t need to have medical insurance or even make an initial payment since it will likely be covered after the verdict of the personal injury case. This is an understanding that your doctor will need to have prior to treatment, and this usually includes filling out a few extra forms. In other words, you are granting a doctor who will treat you a lien against your recovery in your personal injury case, which will assure the doctor that he or...

With New Year’s Eve just around the corner, it’s important to talk about roadway safety. Whether you are driving to visit friends house, going out for dinner, or staying close to home and driving to the store, roadway safety is something that everybody should take into consideration. Over the years, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has remained diligent about providing information on the dangers that are present of the roadways during the holidays. Inevitably, the roadways are busier during the holiday season than any other time of year. Busy roadways play a significant role in increasing the risk of injury from an auto accident. The NHTSA has indicated that it has increased its efforts on drunk driving prevention and seat belt safety awareness. According to the NHTSA, “The nationwide seat belt use rate was 90.1 percent in 2016” (nhtsa.gov, 2017). Unfortunately, data from the NHTSA also shows that there were approximately 781 people killed in December 2016 as a result of drunk driving auto accidents, and nearly 4,000 people died from auto accidents that involved drunk drivers. This year, the NHTSA has begun a campaign title “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” as a way to draw attention to drunk driving....
