Frequently Asked Questions

Have you been injured in an accident? We’re here to help.

At Zhivov Law, we specialize exclusively in personal injury cases. Our experienced team of injury lawyers works hard to ensure the best possible settlement in a timely manner. While we take the occasional personal injury case unrelated to motor vehicle accidents (MVAs), the vast majority of our claims involve auto accident injuries.

The most typical injury we see in car accident claims is whiplash, which can result in long-term chronic pain and require ongoing medical care.

The second most common type of auto accident we see involves intersection collisions, where an individual runs a stop light or stop sign or where a driver makes a left turn across another vehicle’s path, resulting in a major crash. These types of accidents often result in traumatic injuries, such as brain injuries and concussions, broken bones, sprains, as well as whiplash.

When should I hire a personal injury lawyer?

You should consider hiring a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible after an accident or injury. Prompt legal representation can help ensure that evidence is preserved, your rights are protected, and you receive appropriate medical care. Early involvement of a lawyer also allows for timely filing of claims and negotiations with insurance companies.

How long does it take to settle a personal injury claim?

The time it takes to settle a personal injury claim varies depending on the complexity of the case, the severity of the injuries, and the willingness of the involved parties to reach an agreement. Some cases may settle within a few months, while others can take several years, especially if litigation is required.

How much money is my claim worth?

The value of your personal injury claim depends on various factors, including the extent of your injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, and the impact on your quality of life. Each case is unique, and a thorough evaluation by a personal injury lawyer can help determine the potential compensation you may be entitled to.

How much does a personal injury lawyer cost?

At Zhivov Law, we operate on a contingency fee basis, meaning you do not pay any upfront fees. Our fees are a percentage of the settlement or court award, which we only collect if we successfully recover your compensation. This arrangement ensures that you can access legal representation without financial stress.

What types of damages am I entitled to if I suffer a personal injury?

If you suffer a personal injury, you may be entitled to various types of damages, including:

Medical expenses (current and future)
Lost wages and loss of earning capacity
Pain and suffering
Emotional distress
Loss of enjoyment of life
Property damage

A personal injury lawyer can help you identify and pursue all applicable damages in your case.

How do I know if I have a personal injury case?

If you have been injured due to someone else’s negligence or wrongful actions, you may have a personal injury case. Common scenarios include car accidents, slip-and-fall incidents, dog bites, and more. A consultation with a personal injury lawyer at Zhivov Law can help determine the viability of your case and the best course of action.
