Sombrero Mexican Food Accident Injury Attorney

Sombrero Mexican Food has a long history as a member of the San Diego community, going all the back to 1960. However, it wasn’t until 1984 that the restaurant as we know it today was opened by founder and CEO, Javier Correa. The company now has 16 locations within San Diego County, and is known throughout California for their classic Mexican dishes, served in a fast-casual environment. While these restaurants pride themselves on quality and service, staff and operators of a Sombrero Mexican Food can sometimes be negligent in their duties. This can lead to dangerous conditions throughout the property, such as water leaks, trip and fall hazards, icy pavements, and insufficient security measures.

Can I Sue the Restaurant if I got Into an Accident on Their Property?

You would have the right to sue Sombrero Mexican Food if you can prove the following circumstances:

• Your injuries occurred from an accident on the premises of the restaurant, which includes indoor and outdoor spaces.
• The cause of the accident can be traced to a negligent act by the restaurant owners, operators, or employees. This includes misconduct by an employee during the course of their job duties, such as physically assaulting a customer.
• The restaurant’s negligence means they failed in their duty of care to you, which means they are liable for your injuries.
• The injuries you’ve suffered make you eligible for compensation, which gives you the right to sue the restaurant.

As an accident victim, there are various forms of compensation that may be available to you. These include, but are not limited to: medical expenses, lost wages, mental anguish, pain and suffering, and property damage (especially relevant in car accidents). Many claimants assume that they can only demand immediate medical costs, which is what the insurance company will offer you. However, this will not take into account the full value of your losses, which we can help you recover.

What is the Average Value of a Lawsuit against Sombrero Mexican Food?

This is a very challenging question to answer, since there are many different types of accidents and injuries that can occur at a restaurant. The impact of those injuries on the victim’s life is the most critical factor in determining the value of their case. That’s why settlements range significantly with these claims, starting at around $10,000 and going all the way up to $1 million or more. If you look at national settlement amounts for these cases, $15,000 to $250,000 is an “average” range. But the degree of injury, the client’s financial losses, and the level of negligence by the defendant can increase the value of a claim far beyond the national average. For a thorough discussion on the amount you can potentially receive from a lawsuit against the restaurant, please reach out to us at your earliest convenience.

Length of Time to Recover Your Settlement

Aside from knowing the potential value of your case, you most likely have questions about how long it will take to achieve a settlement. Obtaining your payment can take anywhere from a few weeks to 1or more years, though 6 months is a more realistic timeline for the majority of our cases. However, the process can take much longer if we are unable to negotiate a settlement directly with the restaurant’s insurance company. If a lawsuit is required, it’s likely that we can reach a fair settlement with help from a certified mediator. But if taking your case to trial is the only option, it may be 2 or more years before you are awarded compensation through a jury verdict.

Free Second Opinion

As we previously stated, the process of resolving an accident injury case can take longer than you had expected, and your only option may be to wait things out. But what if you suspect that your law firm is responsible for the endless delays in your case? This is just one of the problems many claimants have with their law firm, but they’re not sure as to what their options are when they’re in the middle of a lawsuit. The solution may be as simple as contacting us to schedule a free second opinion. This is a consultation specifically designed for those with pending injury claims. We will provide you with legal options, no matter the issue, and do our best to help you achieve the results you’re looking for. If this is a service that you would be interested in, call us anytime to ask for a second opinion on your existing accident claim.

How Long Do I Have to File a Lawsuit?

Most lawsuits involving personal injury against an individual or private business must be filed within 2 years from the date of the accident. If you miss the deadline to bring forth a legal action, you may permanently lose the right to sue Sombrero Mexican Food, so please don’t wait to initiate a claim with one of our attorneys. We can take immediate action to investigate your accident and gather evidence to build a solid case on your behalf. Then, we will make sure that all paperwork pertaining to your lawsuit is filed in a timely manner.
