How the Process Works
· Care First: Do what you need to do to recover and heal from your injury. Follow all doctor instructions and prioritize your long term health. The best thing you can do for your case is to seek every opportunity to physically and emotionally recover as effectively as possible.
· Obtain Witness Information: Get contact information for any helpful witnesses.
· Handling Insurance: If the opposing insurance agency calls, be polite and decline recorded statements. Tell them you’ll respond after you’ve had time to review your claim. After retaining an attorney, direct all attempted insurance contact to your attorney.
· Maintain Records: Keep all repair, rental, tow, and medical paperwork organized.
· We investigate: We gather medical records, bills, photos, witness statements, and insurance information.
· Demand & Negotiation: We compile and send a detailed settlement package to the insurer. We lay out all the evidence we have gathered and tell the story of your pain and suffering due to your injuries.
· Resolution or Lawsuit: If the other side is reasonable, some cases can be resolved at this stage. If the initial offer is unfair and the other side proves unwilling to negotiate reasonably, we file suit. Litigation can be an important tool in our arsenal to force insurance companies to take seriously the trauma that you have suffered.
· Resolution: Most cases settle before trial. However, when no reasonable settlement can be reached, Abronson Law Offices is ready. We will take your case to a jury and tell your story. When an insurance company requires a fight to the death, we will accommodate them.

Insurance companies are directly incentivized to minimize payouts. No matter how much you or anyone else has paid them, they are never on your side. Denying claims is literally what they do to make a living. An experienced attorney levels the playing field.
Contingency Fee: You pay nothing up front. Abronson Law Offices if only paid if and when we are victorious on your behalf.

Common Questions
Do I Have a Case?
A: If you were injured and someone else was careless or violated safety rules, you may have a claim. We assess fault, injuries, medical proof, and available insurance. Call Abronson Law Offices today for your free evaluation.
What Should I Do When the Insurance Adjuster Calls
A: · End the call courteously.
· Decline to be recorded.
· Avoid signing medical authorizations from the other insurer early in the process.
· Contact an attorney.
How is Settlement Value Determined?
A: Insurers (and juries) look at medical bills, future care, wage loss/loss of earning capacity, out-of-pocket costs, pain, suffering, and how the injury changed your daily life. The value may be adjusted if there are issues with your case regarding liability or causation.
What if I Felt Okay at First and Pain Started Days Later?
A: That’s common with soft-tissue and some head or spine injuries. Get evaluated promptly. Gaps in care create openings for insurers to argue the injury came from somewhere else.
Will Pre-Existing Conditions Ruin My Case?
A: Pre-existing conditions do not disqualify you. If the accident caused an injury that otherwise wouldn’t have occurred or exacerbated a preexisting condition, you still have a valid claim.
Do Most Cases Go To Trial?
A: Very few. Most resolve through negotiation or mediation after the evidence is presented.
How Long Will This Take?
A: Minor claims can resolve in a few months once treatment finishes. Serious injuries and litigated matters can take two years or more. No matter how long a case takes, Abronson Law Offices is committed to moving your case forward at each opportunity and keeping open and clear communication so you know exactly what is happening with your case at all times.
What Will This Cost Me?
A: Nothing up front. We work on a contingency fee. If there’s no recovery, you owe no attorney’s fee.
What is Your Service Area?
A: Abronson Law Offices is based in San Jose and San Francisco, serving Santa Clara County, the Bay Area, and clients all over California through secure virtual representation.
