Personal Injury Firm in Glendale, CA
Aggressive Legal Representation Throughout the San Fernando Valley & Los Angeles County
Personal injuries occur every day in the greater Los Angeles area with its high traffic density and huge population. Unfortunately, going about your daily activities can result in an unexpected and often life-changing event that leaves you seriously injured.
These injuries can lead to hospitalization, ongoing medical treatment, substantial medical bills, and loss of income due to the inability to work. For some, injuries can be catastrophic, with profound consequences for them and their families.
California personal injury law was enacted to give injury victims legal recourse against at-fault parties and their insurers to recover compensation for what they have suffered. The effects of personal injury events can be physical, emotional, and financial.

Your Path to Recovery Comprehensive Personal Injury Solutions
The Legal Basis for Personal Injury Claims
Personal injury claims are filed against those individuals or entities that have been negligent, reckless or have committed intentional acts against others, leading to injuries. To successfully pursue a personal injury claim, you must establish several legal elements, commonly known as the "burden of proof."
This typically requires proving that the defendant owed you a duty of care, that they breached that duty, and that this breach directly resulted in your injuries. For instance, in a vehicle accident case, a driver’s failure to obey traffic laws may constitute a breach of duty, establishing liability for any resulting injuries. Additionally, you must demonstrate the extent of your damages, such as medical expenses and lost wages.
Personal Injury Cases We Handle
Our team represents clients in numerous accidents and events, such as:
The injuries in such accidents can range from whiplash to concussions, broken bones, organ damage, sprains, nerve damage, and more. In the worst cases, injuries can be catastrophic, such as traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, severe burns, and loss of limbs.
These latter injuries can profoundly affect one’s quality of life, ability to work, and family dynamics. Such injuries require comprehensive financial resources to compensate for their life-changing consequences.
Insurance Company Tactics in Personal Injury Cases
Insurance companies often use a range of tactics to minimize their payouts on claims. They may argue that their policyholder was not at fault despite evidence to the contrary. They often undervalue damages, offering significantly lower settlements than the actual costs incurred.
Prolonging the claims process is another ploy they use to frustrate claimants into accepting lower settlements in the face of their injury-related expenses. Company representatives may apply aggressive pressure to get accident victims to sign quick settlements before they fully understand the extent of their injuries or legal rights.
These tactics are designed to protect the insurance company’s profitability. At the same time, they may appear friendly, but your health and well-being are not their primary concern. This is why you need an experienced attorney to protect your best interests. At Law Offices of Harout Balian, we deal with insurers daily and know how to counteract them effectively.
