Law Offices of Jennie Levin, P.C.

Ms. Levin likes to meet with each client in person, however, we also work with cutting edge technology and can do everything remotely. We know you are injured and under a lot of stress, so we do what we can to minimize that. We can have our assistants meet with you at your home or do everything by email and fax.

Yes, we can. Clients who don’t have health insurance can see doctors that work on a “lien basis.” We have a network of great physicians that can see you on a lien. That means there is no upfront charge for the treatment. Treatment is made upon resolution of the case. So you don’t need to worry about copay's or deductible and focus can on healing.

Every car has a different value, and the compensation received for a total loss will be based off of the vehicle’s fair market value. If your vehicle was worth a lot, then you can expect a lot of money, and vice versa. Insurance companies have to pay for your vehicle’s fair market value. If you had done extra work on your car outside of ordinary maintenance, that should be covered too, so keep your receipts handy. Another thing to keep in mind is gap insurance. When leasing or financing a car, people often end up owing more than the fair market value of the car due to the interest rate. In those cases, the total offer insurance company is making may fall short of your pay off amount. That is why it is important to get gap insurance on your car. Gap insurance would cover the gap between the fair market value payment the insurance company will make for your total loss and the amount you still owe to the bank.

If you do not have doctors, we have a wide array of excellent doctors that work on a lien basis. That means they typically do not charge you until the case settles and you do not have to pay anything out of pocket.

In California, the statute of limitations (the period within which a case must be filed after an accident) is two years for bodily injury and three years for property damage. The one exception is if the claim involves a government entity. In that case, the statute of limitations is only six months. If you do not file a case within this time period, you will lose your ability to file at all! That’s why time is of the essence in a personal injury case. If you were in an accident, call us TODAY.

Absolutely. We get lots of inquiries by clients who are not happy with the way their case is being handled and attorney Jennie Levin gets approached for a second opinion a lot. We do not charge for case evaluation. It is your right as the client to change your attorney at any time. You are also entitled to get a copy of your file. If we determine that your case is right for us, we will get in touch with your former counsel directly, so you would not have to reach out to them and deal with the unpleasantries of switching over. You have nothing to lose by getting a second opinion on your case. For our office to evaluate whether we would be a good fit for your case, contact us at (310) 951-1188. We would be happy to talk to you and provide what resources we can.

Yes, many of our office staff speak and write fluent Spanish. Our attorney, Jennie Levin, not only speaks fluent Spanish, but also Portuguese, Russian, and Hebrew (in addition to English, of course). Other staff members in our firm speak additional various languages. We might have a few linguistic blind spots but we can accommodate a broad array of clients from a multitude of different backgrounds.

The duration of your case will vary. Some cases can be settled in a matter of days or weeks, other may take years, and most are somewhere in between. We alluded to this in Question 4. The severity of your injuries and the extent of your treatment are major factors in determining the value of your case. Property damage and bodily injuries are treated separately and there are typically different adjusters handling those claims and even the statute of limitations (i.e. the time period within which you may file your claim) is different in California. The statute of limitations for bodily injury is 2 years, while the statute of limitations for property damage is 3. While most clients will (understandably) want their cases wrapped up quickly, most would also agree that it is important to get the full amount of damages you deserve, and see the treatment to the end.

The amount, as you might expect, varies from case to case. We strive to get the maximum compensation available on the different insurance policies at play on a given case. There are a number of factors that go into the formula of compensation. Things such as your age, whether or not you had pre-existing conditions, the size of the impact, the size of the available policy limits, and importantly the nature of your injuries all play into the equation. The simplified formula for compensation is: The more pain you have, the more diagnoses and injuries you have, the more treatment and procedures you do, the more your case could be worth. The exact value of the case is determined based on the combinations of the above mentioned factors. Hence, beware of attorneys who tell you or even worse guarantee how much your case is worth and how much money they are going to get you. That is simply inaccurate.
