- Hit and RunPlaintiff was a 19 year old unrestrained driver of a vehicle which had pulled over into an emergency lane on the highway before being rear ended by a "hit and run" SUV. Martinian and Associates identified and located the hit and run driver, and opened claims against the driver and registered owner of the vehicle. First offer was $46,000.00 and the second offer (prior to settlement) was $64,000.00.
- Workers CompensationIn many workplace accidents, victims can file workers' compensation claims. This means that the employee is covered by workers' comp insurance and cannot sue their employer for injuries. In other cases, a third party can be held liable for the accident. For example, if a construction worker was injured by a nail gun because it was defective, then they could potentially sue the nail gun manufacturer. To put it simply, third-party insurance claims are claims that are not filed against the employer or employee, but an outside third party. Evaluating what type of case you have may be complicated.

- Premises LiabilityWhat is premises liability? This is an area of civil liability that involves the negligence or carelessness of a premises/property owner that results in the injury of an "invitee" and in some cases, even trespassers. Simply slipping, falling or otherwise getting injured on someone else's property does not necessarily constitute a premises liability claim. It must be clearly shown that the premises owner is liable for injuries due to blatantly hazardous conditions.
- Property DamageInsurance requirements: California requires all drivers to carry liability insurance with a minimum coverage of $15,000 for injury or death to one person, $30,000 for injury or death to more than one person, and $5,000 for property damage.

- Medical MalpracticeWrongful death is a tragic event that occurs when someone dies due to the negligent or intentional actions of another person or entity. In California, wrongful death can be attributed to a variety of scenarios, including medical malpractice, car accidents, workplace accidents, and defective products. To be considered wrongful death, the party responsible for the death must have acted negligently, recklessly, or with intentional harm. The death must have also resulted in damages, such as emotional distress, loss of financial support, and loss of companionship. In California, surviving family members can file a wrongful death lawsuit to hold the liable party accountable and receive compensation for their losses. It is important to seek the guidance of an experienced wrongful death attorney in Los Angeles to navigate the legal process and ensure a fair outcome.
- Auto Accidents
- Dog BitesCalifornia Civil Code § 3342 addresses the liability of dog owners when attacks occur. Unlike dog bite laws in other states that implement a "one bite rule" that protects the owners of dogs that have never bitten anyone before, California implements strict liability for dog bites.
