A San Diego Personal Injury Lawyer Who Understands Insurance Companies

There are plenty of lawyers who say they handle personal injury or wrongful death cases. There are few lawyers who have extensive experience in both personal injury and wrongful death litigation and in holding insurance companies accountable when they fail to comply with their legal and contractual obligations. The Huver Law Firm has experience in both. I have a proven record of success in achieving significant awards on behalf of personal injury and wrongful death clients, as well as holding insurance companies responsible when they fail to act properly.

A Representative Case: An insurance company refused to defend a potential insured in a serious personal injury case. After obtaining a $4,100,000 default judgment against the unrepresented defendant, the insurance company was ultimately forced to accept responsibility for its bad faith failure to provide a defense. As a result, my client obtained a significant recovery beyond the policy limits.

Understanding the insurance business means understanding what it takes to obtain a fair settlement offer. I will give you straight-forward advice based on my experience negotiating with insurance companies. When it comes time to decide whether to settle or take the case to trial, I will give you that answer that is in your best interests based on my experience and knowledge.

Serious Legal Representation for Serious Injuries

According to the Center for Disease Control, more than 5 million people each year are involved in motor vehicle accidents that are serious enough to warrant emergency room care. In California, our roadways are crowded with bikes, pedestrians, cars, trucks, cycles and SUVs. It is inevitable serious accidents will occur.

As your attorney, the types of injuries for which I can provide effective, aggressive, and successful representation include:

  • Serious roadway and traffic accidents including auto accidents, accidents involving a van, truck or SUV and other accidents involving serious motor vehicle injuries, or motorcycle
  • Non-motorized roadway accidents involving either a bicycle or pedestrian
  • Construction site accidents causing brain damage, amputations or other serious on-the-job injuries which are due to negligent actions on the part of a third party or non-employer
  • Nursing home accidents, including neglect and elder abuse
  • Wrongful death litigation on behalf of surviving family members
  • Disfigurement or scarring resulting from dog bites
  • Industrial accidents, fires and other incidents which cause burn injuries
  • Dangerous condition of public or private property which causes injuries
  • Accidents which cause brain injury or spinal cord injury
  • Products liability cases in which a defective or dangerous condition of a product causes a serious personal injury

I understand the impact a serious injury has on your life and the lives of those around you. While keeping your best interests at heart, I strive to obtain the best possible result for my clients each and every time.
