- Call For A Free Consultation (877) 792-4529
After a collision, three questions matter: what caused the crash, which insurance policies may apply, and how to document the injury. The Law Offices of Asher Hoffman represents people injured in Bellflower car accidents. This page focuses on driver and passenger claims, rather than other types of personal injury.
Request a free car accident consultation or call (877) 792-4529. You can contact us before every report or medical record is available.
For a crash near a freeway ramp or at an intersection, record the exact location, direction of travel, lane, and nearest cross street. A road name alone does not establish fault. Avoid assumptions about traffic volume or which location is most dangerous.
Keep original files and avoid edits that replace them. Video may be overwritten. Tell your attorney promptly about a possible source, even if you do not have the footage.
For a medical emergency, call 911. Follow the advice of your medical providers. Keep records of symptoms, treatment, bills, and missed work; do not delay care while you wait for an insurance decision.
The other driver’s liability coverage and your own policy can serve different purposes. Preserve declarations pages, claim numbers, adjuster letters, and any coverage denial. Ask the attorney to review the policies rather than assume that one policy covers every loss.
Many California injury lawsuits have a two-year deadline, but exceptions and earlier claim requirements can apply. Public-entity claims require particular care. An insurance negotiation does not itself extend the time to sue. See our California car accident deadline guide and obtain advice about your own dates.
Insurance denials are common. We respond with evidence, expert reports, and when necessary, a lawsuit. Insurance companies often reconsider their position once litigation is filed and they face the prospect of discovery and trial.
Yes – California’s pure comparative fault rule allows recovery even with partial fault. Your damages are reduced by your percentage of responsibility, but you are not barred from recovering compensation.
Cases that settle typically resolve in six to eighteen months. Litigation can take two to three years depending on case complexity and court scheduling.
Contingency. We advance all costs and take no fee unless we win. If we do not recover for you, you owe us nothing.
Bring the crash date, available reports, photos, insurer correspondence, and medical provider details. Explain what remains uncertain, including disputed fault, missing insurance information, or an offer already made.
The review should address the evidence of responsibility, available coverage, injury documentation, and deadlines. A settlement value or completion date cannot be promised from the city or crash type alone. The appropriate court depends on the case and current assignment rules.

An insurance negotiation does not itself extend a lawsuit deadline. Ask an attorney to review your dates, especially if a public agency may be involved.
