At the Law Offices of Asher Hoffman, we represent Los Angeles residents and Southern California families seriously injured by another party’s negligence. With offices on Wilshire Boulevard in the Miracle Mile and on Long Beach Boulevard in Long Beach, our firm serves the full range of Los Angeles County and beyond — from car crashes on the 405 to slip-and-fall incidents at Hollywood and Highland to catastrophic truck collisions on the I-710 corridor.
Founding attorney Asher Hoffman has spent more than a decade representing injured Californians in serious personal injury matters. After undergoing spinal fusion surgery for severe scoliosis, he understands firsthand what it means to navigate medical care, recovery timelines, and the financial pressure that follows a catastrophic injury. That perspective shapes how our firm treats every client: with empathy, transparency, and unwavering advocacy.
Every Los Angeles personal injury client at our firm has direct access to their attorney, honest communication about case strategy and value, and a team prepared to negotiate or litigate as the facts require. The process begins with a free consultation, with no obligation and no fee unless we win.
Los Angeles is one of the most dense, congested, and accident-prone metropolitan areas in the United States, with a population approaching four million and daily activity that places it among the busiest commercial, tourist, and entertainment hubs in the world. That combination of density, traffic, industrial activity, and visitor volume produces a personal injury caseload unlike any other city in California.
Major freeways crossing Los Angeles include:
Beyond the freeways, LA’s surface streets are designed to handle enormous daily volume. Wilshire Boulevard, Sunset Boulevard, Olympic Boulevard, La Cienega, Western Avenue, Vermont Avenue, La Brea, Crenshaw, and Sepulveda all carry hundreds of thousands of trips per day. Pedestrian-heavy corridors include Hollywood Boulevard, the Downtown LA core, Westwood Village, and the LACMA / Miracle Mile stretch of Wilshire near our office.
Major commercial and tourist destinations — Hollywood and Highland, the Grove, Beverly Center, Universal CityWalk, the Downtown LA hotel corridor, and the Westside retail centers — generate constant pedestrian, parking lot, and rideshare-related injury claims. The hospitality industry’s high turnover and complex insurance structures create unique liability questions that demand specialized handling.
Our firm represents Los Angeles clients across the full range of personal injury matters. Each practice area presents distinct legal, medical, and tactical considerations.
Vehicle collisions are the leading source of personal injury claims in LA. Common causes include distracted driving, speeding, impaired driving, unsafe lane changes, and rear-end crashes. We represent drivers, passengers, and pedestrians injured throughout the city. See our LA car accident practice.
LA’s freeway network is a major artery for commercial trucks moving cargo from the Port of LA to inland warehouses. Big-rig collisions on the I-710, I-5, I-10, and I-110 are frequent and often catastrophic. We investigate trucking company hours-of-service compliance, driver fatigue, improper cargo securement, and equipment maintenance failures. Read about our LA truck accident practice.
Riders face disproportionate injury risk on LA’s congested freeways and surface streets. Mulholland Drive, the Santa Monica Mountains canyon roads, and the I-405 lane-splitting corridor through the Westside generate a disproportionate share of motorcycle injury claims in LA County. Learn more about LA motorcycle cases.
LA County records the highest pedestrian fatality count of any county in the nation. Pedestrian-heavy corridors include Hollywood Boulevard, the Downtown LA core, Westwood Village, and the Miracle Mile stretch of Wilshire Boulevard. Learn about LA pedestrian accident claims.
Property owners in LA — from Hollywood and Highland to the Grove to Beverly Center to Universal CityWalk — have a legal duty to maintain reasonably safe conditions. We represent clients injured at retail centers, hotels, restaurants, and entertainment venues throughout the city. See our LA slip and fall practice.
LA is one of the highest-volume rideshare markets in the world. Whether you were a passenger, another driver, or a pedestrian, we navigate the complex layered insurance policies to identify every available source of recovery. Read our rideshare accident page.
LA County leads California in reported dog bite incidents annually. California’s strict liability dog bite statute holds owners responsible regardless of prior aggression. Learn about LA dog bite cases.
Our firm does not handle workers’ compensation claims, but we do represent employees injured at work due to a third party’s negligence. LA’s construction sector, manufacturing base, and hospitality industry generate frequent third-party injury claims that go well beyond what workers’ compensation alone provides. See our workplace accident practice.
We represent surviving family members in wrongful death claims involving fatal car crashes, pedestrian collisions, workplace accidents, and other negligent conduct. Learn about wrongful death cases.
California law allows injured plaintiffs to recover both economic and non-economic damages. The amount depends on the severity of the injury, the impact on the plaintiff’s life and earning capacity, and the strength of the evidence supporting liability.
Compensation in a Los Angeles personal injury claim may include:
We work with medical experts, life-care planners, vocational economists, and accident reconstructionists to fully document the value of your case.
LA is home to some of the most respected trauma facilities in the country:
LA personal injury cases are typically filed at the Los Angeles Superior Court. The most relevant courthouses include:
