Car Accidents
Rear-end crashes, intersection collisions, and hit and runs.
Personal Injury
A Los Angeles personal injury law firm that answers the phone.
You are hurt, the car is wrecked, and an adjuster is already calling. Before you give anyone a recorded statement, talk to us. We handle injury claims across Los Angeles County on one simple term: no fee unless we win.
No fee unless we win. Free, confidential case review.
Most injury cases in this office start the same way: someone was going about an ordinary day in Los Angeles, and someone else was careless. Now there are emergency room bills, missed paychecks, and a claims adjuster whose job performance is measured by how little the insurance company pays you. The adjuster will be polite, and everything they ask for, the recorded statement, the quick settlement offer, the broad medical authorization, is designed to resolve your claim before anyone knows what it is worth.
What we take off your plate.
From the day you retain Woodbury Law Group, the insurance company talks to us, not to you. We collect the traffic collision report from the investigating agency. We preserve evidence before it disappears: intersection camera footage gets overwritten, vehicles get scrapped, skid marks fade. We line up your medical care, including physicians who treat on a lien when you have no health insurance, so treatment never waits on a settlement.
When your treatment stabilizes, we send the insurer a demand supported by records, bills, wage documentation, and, where the injuries call for it, opinions from retained medical and accident reconstruction professionals. Most claims settle at this stage. When an insurer will not be reasonable, we file suit. Los Angeles County routes most injury cases through its dedicated personal injury courts at the Spring Street Courthouse downtown, and we prepare every case on the assumption it will end up there.
What your claim may cover.
California law allows an injured person to recover economic damages and non-economic damages. Economic damages are the countable losses: emergency care, surgery, physical therapy, future treatment, lost wages, reduced earning capacity, and the cost of replacing what was destroyed. Non-economic damages compensate for what the injury did to your life: pain, anxiety behind the wheel, a shoulder that no longer lets you lift your kid. Insurers discount these losses aggressively when no lawyer is involved, and rules most people have never heard of, like Proposition 213 for uninsured owner-drivers, can change what a claim is worth. A free consultation before you talk to any insurer is worth thirty minutes of your time.

Deadlines are shorter than you think.
Most California injury claims must be filed within two years. Claims against a city, a county, Metro, or the State of California generally require a written government claim within six months. Evidence decays faster than either deadline; the sooner we start, the stronger the case.

Deadlines have exceptions, and some are shorter than you expect. Minors, government defendants, and late-discovered injuries all change the math. Call us at (424) 626-6222 before you assume you have time.
Straight answers before you sign anything.
When you call Woodbury Law Group, you get a lawyer's assessment of your case. If the honest answer is that you do not need a lawyer, you will hear that too. We serve injured people throughout Los Angeles, Glendale, Burbank, Pasadena, and the surrounding communities, in English, Spanish, and Armenian.
What to know before your first call.
What does it cost to hire Woodbury Law Group for an injury case?
Nothing out of pocket. We work on contingency: our fee is a percentage of what we recover for you. If we recover nothing, you owe no attorney fee. Case costs and fee percentages are spelled out in writing before you sign anything.
How long will my personal injury case take?
A straightforward claim with a clear liability picture and finished medical treatment can resolve in a few months. Cases that go into litigation in Los Angeles County often run a year or longer. We keep our cases moving and push back when insurers stall.
The insurance adjuster already offered me money. Should I take it?
Not before you know what your claim is worth. Early offers usually arrive before the full extent of your injuries is documented. Once you sign a release, the claim is over, even if you need surgery later. Have us read the offer first. The review is free.
What if I was partly at fault for the accident?
California follows pure comparative negligence. You can recover even if you were mostly at fault; your compensation is simply reduced by your percentage of responsibility. Do not let an adjuster talk you out of a claim because you think you share blame.
Do I have to go to court?
Most injury claims settle without a trial. We prepare every case as if it will be tried, because insurers pay more when they know the firm across the table will actually file. If a lawsuit is needed, we handle it and keep you informed at every step.
