Practice Areas
Car Accident Lawyer
Looking for a car accident lawyer you can rely on? Look no further! With the way technology is today, many people come to us because they have been involved in a car accident resulting from distracted driving, whether by talking on the phone, texting, looking up directions, or changing music on the radio. While car accidents are extremely common and happen every day–the average person gets into a car accident roughly once every 18 years–you may not be walking away with minor injuries. While a small accident can leave you upset, late for work, and sore, a more serious accident can leave you with fractured bones, a broken back, and a traumatic brain injury.
Many people are hesitant to get the medical and legal help they need following an accident because they are concerned about what they will need to pay out of pocket. However, the only thing that matters following a car accident is getting medical attention first. Many injuries are silent for hours, days, and weeks following a car accident. Your medical provider can run tests and see what kind of injuries you may have. Once you have seen your doctor, your next call should be your trusted Ventura personal injury lawyer from Quirk Law Firm, LLP. We will work to gather evidence from the accident to show who is responsible and what kinds of compensation the other party owes you.
Truck Accident Lawyer
Injuries sustained from a truck accident are often not minor. In fact, when you consider that a truck–ranging in weight from 35,000 pounds to 80,000 pounds has hit your car–it is a miracle that you are alive following the accident. Our attorneys know that many things can cause truck accidents to happen such as distracted driving, driver fatigue, mechanical issues, and even improper loading of the truck’s cargo trailer. This means that truck accident cases are often more difficult and complex.
Should you be handling this kind of case on your own? Likely not. Truck accident claims are not typically straightforward. Given the number of things that may have gone wrong leading up to the accident, you may be filing a claim against the truck driver, their company, or a third party who worked on the truck or loaded the truck. When this is the case, you may get the legal run-around in determining who is at fault which can stretch your injury claim out longer and make it more difficult to pursue compensation. When this is the case, call our office to work with a lawyer you can rely on so that you can focus on your recovery process and leave the difficult legal tasks up to us.
Pedestrian Accident Lawyer
No matter how closely you follow the law when it comes to pedestrian traffic rules, you may still become injured. You might be walking along the sidewalk and minding your own business or crossing the crosswalk of a street after you waited for your turn. However, even in instances where you may have crossed the street when it wasn’t your turn, cars still have the obligation to proceed with caution in areas where pedestrians may be walking, like near crosswalks or across parking lots. If a car injured you while you were walking outside, you have the right to speak with a lawyer about filing a pedestrian accident claim.
There are many factors to take into consideration when filing a claim, such as whether the driver of the vehicle is entirely at fault or whether you may share any liability. Your lawyer will work to provide evidence demonstrating who is liable and what amount of compensation would be fair. While motor vehicle accidents can be scary, being a pedestrian in an accident is especially dangerous. With little to no protective gear on, you can become seriously injured when a car or other motor vehicle hits you. This leaves you vulnerable to severe and life-threatening injuries. If you hope to file a legal claim after being involved in a pedestrian accident, turn to our office to help. We understand that this is an extremely difficult time for you while you recover from your injuries and we are here to fight beside you for the compensation you deserve.
Dog Bite Lawyer
While many people only view dogs as “man’s best friend,” it is coming to light more and more how dangerous dogs can be when they are not trained well or when they are put into situations where they feel territorial or threatened. As our Ventura personal injury lawyer has seen firsthand, people in situations where they are being friendly with dogs or approach a property where they did not know a dog was present can end in a bad situation. Our team has seen far too often what happens when dog bites go unreported and a dog that has bitten someone before could easily bite again. The burden will be on you to prove that the dog’s owner did not use reasonable care with the dog or did not properly restrain the dog. While this can sometimes be difficult to prove, it is important that you work with a lawyer who can gather this evidence and bring your case together.
Even if the dog was not formerly known as vicious, the dog’s owner could be liable for any injuries you sustained as a result of the dog attack, whether you were on public or private property. While many states have what is known as the “one bite law,” California holds that dog owners have strict responsibility when their dog attacks. This means if a dog bit you or injured you and they were not previously known as being aggressive, you can still hold the dog owner liable. It is important to speak with a lawyer about the events that occurred leading up to the dog bite and what kind of damages you have suffered since the incident.
Wrongful Death Lawyer
When your loved one has passed away as a result of someone else’s negligence, you may have the right to bring forth a wrongful death claim. This kind of claim allows certain family members to bring a lawsuit forward when someone negligently or recklessly killed their loved one. We are extremely sympathetic to our client’s needs during this time and understand that the only thing you need to do right now is to grieve the loss of your loved one who was taken too soon. When you are going through a difficult time like this, you should not be worried about making filing deadlines or filling out all of the right paperwork. Instead, trust a lawyer from Quirk Law Firm, LLP to handle this for you.
After your loved one’s passing, you may be concerned and overwhelmed by all of the sudden costs. These could range from any hospital stay they may have had as a result of their injuries, burial and funeral costs, and even pain and suffering they may have gone through. While it can be difficult to think about what they went through before they died, our goal is to help you get through this legal battle and receive compensation when someone’s wrongful act caused your loved one’s death. We will work to put together a civil lawsuit that outlines the events that took place and the financial burden you may be bearing. While it cannot make up for the incredible loss you have suffered, it may help you begin to move forward as you celebrate your loved one’s life. Call our office to see how we can help you with your wrongful death claim.
Premises Liability Lawyer
When you get injured on someone else’s property, your first reaction might be to try to walk it off. In fact, you might be embarrassed or do not want to make a big deal out of it. This often happens with premises liability claims like slip and fall accidents. However, in doing so, you may be hurting your chance to recover fair compensation. If you are injured on someone else’s property, it is important that you avoid discussing your injuries with anyone except your doctor and your trusted lawyer from Quirk Law Firm, LLP. Many people find that the injuries they have sustained on someone else’s property can get worse as the day progresses. While you may be tempted to sleep it off, the first thing you should do is seek help from a doctor. They can run thorough testing, especially in the event that you believe you may have hit your head.
When it comes to accidents like this, our Ventura personal injury lawyer will be looking at what kind of responsibility the property owner had. Were there obvious signs stating that there was a danger on the property? Were there places on the property that were damaged or should have been fixed? Did the property owner know about the danger or was the danger so new that they would not have known? Your lawyer will answer all of these questions and will investigate how the accident occurred and determine what kinds of compensation you are owed.
Back Injury Lawyer
Anyone with a back injury can tell you that it is one of the most devastating types of injuries you can get. If you were in an accident that caused your back to become injured, you may suddenly realize just how much your back does. With an injury here, you may be unable to move properly, like walk around, stand, sit, or even lie down. Doing any of these movements can be incredibly painful and it may render you entirely unable to get around. Back pain can happen as a result of many different accidents, such as motor vehicle accidents, pedestrian accidents, or even slip and fall accidents.
It is crucial that you get both the medical and legal help that you need following an accident that causes your back to become injured. The road to recovery may be long and you might need corrective surgery, physical therapy, and home modifications to help get your life back. When this is the case and you are ready to move forward with a back injury claim, call our office.
We understand that when you have been in an accident it can be devastating. It hardly makes sense that when you are going through a physically and emotionally difficult time you should try to file a legal claim on your own. Instead, reach out to the law firm you can rely on. Call the trusted team from Quirk Law Firm, LLP to speak with our Ventura personal injury lawyer now.
What Can the Quirk Law Firm Do For You?
At the Quirk Law Firm, we understand that you need the best legal team possible to help you through whatever challenges you may be dealing with. We provide legal services across a broad range of fields, and we’re dedicated to getting you the compensation and justice you deserve.
How Can a Lawyer Help With Auto Accidents?
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), there were more than 20,000 car accident-related fatalities in the first half of 2022 alone. That's a staggering number, and even if your accident didn't involve any deaths, you may still need to lawyer up.
Medical bills, repair fees, and lost wages can all stack up to make your life more difficult, so it's more important than ever to get in touch with a law firm that really cares. When it comes to car accidents, you shouldn't have to pay a single cent out of pocket, especially if it can be proven that the other driver (or drivers) weren't paying attention to the road, or were neglecting their responsibility to maintain a safe driving environment for everyone else.
What is Civil Litigation?
In the legal world, you can't always expect the state to give you the justice you know you deserve. While a criminal case may lead to someone being thrown in jail, there's never the guarantee that they'll personally be held accountable for your injuries. Fortunately, the Quirk Law Firm specializes in civil litigation.
When the criminal court fails, it doesn't mean your call for closure is any less valid. If you were injured, you deserve compensation. If you lost a loved one because of negligence or malpractice, you deserve compensation. If you or your loved ones were harmed in any way because of someone else, you deserve compensation. Civil litigation is your ticket to real closure and real justice, and we can help you every step of the way.
Can I be Compensated for Dog and Animal Attacks?
According to the ASPCA, nearly 1 in 5 American households adopted a dog during the COVID-19 pandemic. That amounts to around 23 million new pets, all raised in a locked-down world. While pretty much everyone loves dogs (even cat people), there's a huge difference between a friendly dog in someone's yard, and a poorly-socialized biter in the office.
After the pandemic, many of us had to go back to work. We also had to run errands and to carry on with our regular routines. But it meant a lot of these dogs who were used to regular human attention suddenly found themselves all alone, with minimal social interaction and a whole lot of nervous, bite-prone anxiety. We can't sue dogs, but we can help you get compensation for a nasty dog bite.
Should I Contact a Lawyer for Back Injuries?
Any kind of injury deserves medical attention. There's no telling how serious the effects may be on your health, and there's no way of knowing that a minor injury won’t develop into something much more serious - unless you go to a doctor. When it comes to back injuries, it's always better to be cautious, be attentive, and get examined as soon as possible.
Back injuries have the potential to become lifelong disabilities. Our whole bodies depend on how well our brains and spines work along with everything else. If your back is injured you should always get it looked at sooner rather than later. Of course, the lasting impact of a back injury isn't going to be cheap to deal with. Fortunately, the pros at the Quirk Law Firm can help you get the money you need to get your life back on track.
Should I Contact a Lawyer for Brain Injuries?
If a back injury deserves immediate attention, that rule goes double for brain injuries. Any time you hit your head, or experience any kind of traumatic head injury, you should go to a doctor immediately to get it checked out. Brain injuries can be fatal, and you should get head injuries treated as soon as possible to avoid any lifelong issues they could cause.
If you experience a brain injury, you may need more than insurance to cover the costs of any medical care. In fact, you may need lifelong, in-home care. A brain injury can mean relearning how to live your life, and it's a difficult path you shouldn't take by yourself. We're here to help.
How Can a Lawyer Help with Neck Injuries?
Whether it's from an accident on the road or a nasty slip and fall on someone else's property, neck injuries also have the potential to completely change your life. While whiplash (the rapid back-and-forth motion of the neck, head, and shoulders) is often caused by car accidents, there are a whole host of other neck injuries you may sustain throughout your day.
If you experience a neck injury, you need to get proper medical care. And unfortunately, like all medical care, it can be a drain on your money, your time, and your mental health. The professionals at the Quirk Law Firm can help you through the paperwork, and we can get you some much-needed financial compensation, too.
Are Spine Injuries Different from Back Injuries?
You don't have to be involved in a car accident to experience a spine injury. While many people assume spine injuries are always caused by back injuries, there's some cases in which spine problems are completely independent. For example, spinal abscesses can result from surgery, but they aren't necessarily caused by a back injury.
Like brain injuries, any spine injury deserves the best medical treatment possible. You'll need to get in touch with specialists, and if your spine injury is severe enough, you may even need lifelong care. Spine injuries are oftentimes permanent, and you should always be compensated for such catastrophic injuries.
What is Premises Liability?
Any injury that occurs on another person's property is grounds for a premises liability claim. For example, if you were shopping and slipped on improperly marked wet tile, you could have a premises liability claim on your hands. The same applies for an injury that occurs in someone else's home. We can help you with a premises liability claim, and we can walk you through the specifics of your case to determine whether you have a valid claim in the first place.
It's important to remember that premises liability claims don't have to occur literally on someone's property. They can also happen when you're interacting with someone else's property. Dogs and other pets count as property, and bites can be grounds for a premises liability claim as well.
Do I Need a Trial Attorney?
When most people think of lawyers, this is what they expect. While attorneys do complete copious amounts of paperwork for their clients (and it's a big part of what we do), it's also important to have an experienced trial attorney who can represent you in court. These are the lawyers who go to bat for you during arbitration, and they're an essential part of a solid legal team.
Sometimes, you have to go to court. When you contact a trial attorney, you get an experienced legal representative who can do the talking on your behalf, and who can keep the rest of your legal team up to speed when it comes to the specifics of your case. At the Quirk Law Firm, our trial attorneys will work with you every step of the way.
How Can a Lawyer Help with Wrongful Death?
Any death is a tragedy – and doubly so if it could have been avoided. If you've lost someone you love, you deserve to be compensated for their untimely passing. Whether it was because of a drunk driver or inexperienced, incompetent medical staff, you need to get justice, and you need to make sure it doesn't happen to anyone else.
At the Quirk Law Firm, we're dedicated to ensuring our clients get the legal help they need, especially in their most difficult moments. A wrongful death is grounds for a full investigation, and we're committed to walking you through every possible step to honor the memory of the loved one you've lost.
