Am I Eligible for a Lawsuit?
If your accident was caused by another party’s negligence, you have the right to file a lawsuit against them and recover the losses that are associated with your injuries. In general, negligence refers to another party’s failure to exercise reasonable care for the purpose of preventing injury to others. For example, a property owner must maintain their home, store, building, etc. in order to remove or repair any hazards that can lead to an accident. If they fail to take care of these issues and you suffer a slip and fall or any other type of accident, you can sue the property owner for being negligent in their duty of care.
This is only one form of negligence, which may or may not apply to your case. That’s why it’s important to speak to an attorney right away to determine the right legal strategy for your case. To meet with a Tagalog speaking accident injury lawyer, contact us at your earliest convenience.
Compensation we can Recover on your Behalf
Whether you are the injured party or the loved one of a deceased accident victim, you probably have questions about the type of compensation you can recover from a successful lawsuit. The damages you are entitled to will depend on the type of lawsuit you are filing. If the right legal action for you is a personal injury claim, your settlement may include:
- Medical expenses
- Pain and suffering
- Lost wages
- Emotional distress
- Property damage
- Punitive damages
- Attorney’s fees
If you are the family member or spouse of a deceased accident victim, you may qualify for the following forms of wrongful death compensation:
- Funeral expenses

Workers’ Compensation Claims
If you have been injured at your workplace or during the course of performing a job-related duty, you are entitled to workers’ compensation under California laws. Normally, you would report your accident to your employer as soon as possible, which will initiate a workplace injury claim. However, a language barrier can make it challenging to fill out the necessary paperwork and understand the procedures that you will need to follow. As a result, many non-English speaking workers are denied the benefits they’re entitled to. A Tagalog speaking workplace injury lawyer at our office will guide you through the entire process and ensure that you are fully compensated for the harm you’ve suffered.
Settlement Value of an Accident Injury
Many accident victims contact us with questions about the average case value for a fall-related accident, workplace injury, car crash lawsuit, etc. However, the value of an injury case is unique to the losses that are suffered by each individual victim (or their loved ones). If we had to give an estimate range for settlement values, we would have to look at the type of accident you’ve suffered. For example, a slip and fall or trip and fall lawsuit may be worth anywhere from $250,000 to over $1 million on average. To get an accurate sense of what your own claim is worth, it’s best to meet with a Tagalog speaking slip and fall lawyer at our office.
No matter what type of accident you’ve had, legal advice is the most important step in recovering the damages you deserve. If you need a Tagalog speaking car accident lawyer, or any other type of injury claims expert, don’t hesitate to give us a call.
How long will it take to Receive my Settlement?
Our goal here at Normandie is to settle your case as soon as possible so that you can move forward from your accident. However, we also strive to bring you maximum payment for your injuries, which can take time to negotiate. Many of our cases take around 6 to 8 months from start to finish, but a quick settlement may not be possible depending on the severity of your injuries. Your case may have other complications that we need to work through before a settlement is achieved. As a result, we are upfront about the fact that it can take two or more years to resolve your claim.
Second Opinion with a Tagalog Speaking Attorney
As we mentioned, the amount of time it takes to settle an injury claim may be longer than you had expected. However, your attorney should be there for you whenever you call with regular updates and encouragement to help you persevere through the legal process. If you’re not getting the time and attention you deserve, it’s understandable that you may be worried about what’s going on with your case.
You may benefit from a second opinion consultation with one of our attorneys. We are happy to review the work that’s been done on our case and advise you of your available legal options. We do not charge for these consultations, so there’s nothing to lose by scheduling a free second opinion with a Tagalog speaking accident lawyer.
Deadline to File your Lawsuit
All accident claims in California are subject to a statute of limitations, which is the amount of time that you have to sue another party for monetary compensation. In most cases, you have two years to file a lawsuit against an individual or entity that’s liable for your accident. But the deadline to file your claim may be different depending on your personal circumstances and the type of accident you’ve suffered. If you miss the deadline to file your case, you may permanently lose the right to seek payment from the responsible party. As this information is extremely important to your case, please get in touch with us to verify the correct statute of limitations for your claim.
