Thank you, Angie for getting My mom a check for the time she went without a rental car. Angie let us know she would be handling the property damage portion of my mom’s case and within a few weeks, my mom received a check. She worked quickly to get my mom the property damage check and we’re happy we didn’t have to speak with the insurance company. Thank you Angie for doing the work! -Maria Aguilera

After a difficult accident, Tork Law and all of the staff were extremely helpful in coordinating my settlement. I am so grateful they were constantly looking out for me, their kindness provided me comfort during my recovery, and their diligence allowed me to receive a helpful settlement. I cannot recommend them enough. So thorough, thoughtful, and efficient! Thank you for all you have done for me.

Just had to say thanks to Angie from the Torklaw team for helping me get full compensation for the property damages in my motorcycle accident two months ago. Initially the opposing party's insurance refused to payout the full damage amount for my gear but Angie followed up with them regularly to fight for the full compensation for my gear that got damaged.

Torklaw was amazing with the help they gave me thru a hard time. Not once did I ever feel I was in the wrong hands and kept me updated step by step. Angie and Anjali were the two that helped with handling my case and they were right there with me the whole way thru

Millions of Americans choose to get a ride from a taxicab or a rideshare driver these days than risk driving themselves. Not only are taxicabs convenient, but they are also cheaper than owning, maintaining, and insuring a vehicle. If you're involved in a taxicab accident, then you really should hire a personal injury attorney. While there is no law or rule saying you need to hire an attorney, having one by your side will increase your chances of being compensated for your injuries. If you're a passenger in a taxicab, you're vulnerable. You have no control over how safe they drive. And you have even less control over what other drivers do while you're in the back of the cab. Personal injury attorneys understand this. They also know that, when it comes to a taxicab accident case, there may be more than one person responsible. Call TorkLaw today for a FREE consultation.
FAQ: A. Yes. You are entitled to recover damages for emotional distress and psychological injuries. In addition to compensation for your psychological injuries, you are also entitled to recover monetary damages for any counseling or therapy you must undergo, as well as any medications your doctor or psychiatrist may prescribe for you.
FAQ: A. Yes. You are entitled to recover damages for susceptibility to future harm, injury, or medical problems. You are also entitled to recover damages for a shortened life expectancy.
FAQ: A. No. Only spouses can recover damages for loss of consortium. However, if your child or parent was contributing financially to you, then you are entitled to recover damages for the lost financial contribution.
FAQ: A. Yes. You are entitled to be fully compensated for disfigurement and humiliation. If you undergo reconstructive surgery by a plastic surgeon or other doctor, you are usually entitled to all economic costs involved in the surgery (such as the doctor's fees, the hospital's charges, etc.), as well as the pain and suffering you experience because of the surgery.
FAQ: A. Yes. You are entitled to damages for loss of or impaired "enjoyment of life." What this means is that if, because of the accident, you are no longer able to participate in activities that you enjoyed, the person must compensate you fairly for these damages.
FAQ: A. Yes. Pain and suffering damages are fully compensable. They are classified as "non-economic" damages, as there is no precise, documented monetary loss you can show on a flow chart or receipt. Often the amount for pain and suffering exceeds the cost of medical treatment for your injuries.
FAQ: A. If you have run your own business for more than one year, you are entitled to be compensated for your monetary losses due to your inability to work. If you were working at your own business for less than a year, you typically cannot recover for lost wages, as the law considers this to be an insufficient record, and determining an amount would be speculative. If you've run your own business for several years, and your gross receipts have increased but you don't show much profit due to substantial expenses and reinvestment into the business, the court will take this into account. Business valuation experts can determine your loss compared to what you could have expected to earn had you not been injured.
FAQ: A. There are two basic categories of monetary compensation, or damages, you can recover: economic damages and non-economic damages. Economic damages consist of money you have paid or will pay out-of-pocket, such as certain medical expenses and lost wages. Non-economic damages are for your pain and suffering and other "intangible" losses that aren’t easily priced. Punitive damages can be recovered in cases of egregious negligence, or in which the other party deliberately or intentionally injured you, as in an assault and battery.
This is important information. Ask your lawyer what he or she will charge you for legal representation. It might be a fixed amount or an hourly rate. However, in most personal injury cases, lawyers work on what is known as a “contingency fee” basis. This means that the attorney is paid a percentage of the amount you receive as part of a settlement or jury award. Typically, it is one-third of the settlement or award amount. At TorkLaw, we work on a contingency basis — you don’t pay anything unless we win or settle your case. Our free consultations mean there is no cost to talk to a Personal Injury Lawyer, and no obligation to choose our firm.
Yes. Minors have protections under the law. Any settlement obtained on their behalf requires a minor’s compromise or approval by the court. Because minors cannot sign contracts, when a minor receives a settlement, there must be a guardian ad litem appointed and approved. by a court to protect the minor’s interests. (Ad litem is a Latin phrase meaning “for the suit” or “for the proceeding”.) The guardian petitions to the court to approve any settlement obtained on behalf of the minor child. This is known as a minor’s compromise.
FAQ: A “tort” is a wrongful act. Personal injury law is sometimes called “tort law.” Civil tort legislation was enacted for the purpose of enabling individuals to recover financial reparation in legal situations where another personal negligently caused damage to person or property. It served a dual purpose: (1) to punish the guilty, and (2) to make sure victims receive restitution for their incurred injuries or losses.
FAQ: Nothing. Under a contingency fee arrangement, you only pay if you win, and if you lose, the attorney swallows all the legal fees and you don’t pay a dime.
FAQ: If we win your case, we will take an agreed-upon percentage of your judgment or settlement to cover their legal fees.

FAQ: Insurance adjusters may call you to obtain information to use against you in a trial or settlement. They may offer to pay your medical bills, which only means they believe they are liable, and trying to convince you to for a fraction of the money you are rightfully owed. Do not speak with the insurance company or attorney for the other driver. Refer the adjuster to your insurance company or your TorkLaw attorney.
FAQ: The most important thing is to take care of yourself. If you need immediate care, call 911. Do not refuse medical attention. Even if you don’t think you are hurt, you may want to see your doctor after the accident, and do what s/he tells you. At the accident scene, call the police and your insurance company. If you can, gather as much evidence, including photographs, video, documents, etc. If you are impaired, ask a friend or family member to help you do this. Do not admit fault. Stay calm and be civil to the other driver. It’s fine to ask if they are OK, or even to offer assistance if needed, but refrain from using language like, “I’m sorry,” or “It was my fault.” Do not discuss the accident or give a statement to the insurance company or attorney for the other driver. Instruct them to call your insurance company or your attorney. Do not post anything on social media about your accident. What you say can be used against you. Call an attorney at TorkLaw to discuss your claim.
FAQ: Be completely honest‚ even if some of the facts are not favorable to you. This will help provide an accurate estimation of your chances of winning. And, it will not help your case to claim something that isn’t true, as the facts usually come out eventually. Be on time and prepared for appointments with all relevant information or documentation. Take your attorney’s advice. Be patient; legal matters require time and research; and no lawyer can guarantee a particular outcome.
FAQ: Not necessarily. We are able to settle most personal injury claims with the insurance company. However, if no settlement can be reached with the other party, the case may go to trial.
FAQ: There are four elements to determine if personal injury claim exists: The defendant, or “at-fault” person had a duty to exercise reasonable care to avoid hurting others or causing an accident. The defendant did not behave in a manner to demonstrate care. The defendant’s actions were the proximate cause of the accident. The injury caused actual damages.
FAQ: Your case’s worth is dependent on the extent and types of damages to which you are entitled; that is, the losses or expenses you incurred because of the accident. These may include: Medical bills (doctor, hospital, surgery, diagnostics, therapy, prescriptions, etc.) Lost wages Pain and suffering Physical disability, disfigurement, or permanent scars Emotional trauma or mental anguish Loss of enjoyment of life Mental disability Property damage Any new expenses (household help, taxi/rideshare costs, etc.)
Dealing with a serious injury or the senseless loss of a loved one in an accident, can be exhausting, intimidating, and confusing. You may not be aware of all your legal rights, or potential sources of income. Insurance companies have nearly unlimited resources to invest in denying or minimizing your claim. A personal injury attorney can help investigate your claim and advocate for your rights so that you receive the maximum amount to which you’re entitled. They will also investigate all sources of income, some of which you may not even be aware. An Insurance Research Council study indicates that when you hire a lawyer for your personal injury case, you recover much more than you would on your own, even after the legal fees.
