California Personal Injury Law

Trusted Representation from a Local Injury and Accident Attorney

Are you facing injury and uncertainty after an accident? Few things cause more upheaval than an injury arising from no fault of your own. You may be limited in your work hours, which decreases your income. You may be missing out on what you enjoy. Much of this starts even before the medical bills arrive, causing more stress and uncertainty.

There is no reason to go through this ordeal alone. Fresno personal injury attorney Frank Nunes offers extensive experience representing victims in California personal injury cases. Serving Kings County, Kern County, Madera County, Fresno County, Tulare County and Merced County, he has the local knowledge and courtroom experience to represent you well during this difficult time.

How Does a Personal Injury Attorney Help?

Personal injury can happen to anyone and arise from many circumstances. We at Nunes Law have handled a variety of cases in this area including:

Motor vehicle crashes (accidents) — including car, motorcycle, and commercial truck accidents
Uninsured/underinsured motorist claims - when the careless party does not have insurance or enough insurance
Premises liability (slips, trips, and falls)
Pedestrian and bicycle crashes (accidents)
Dangerous and defective products
Wrongful death
Burns
Dog Bites
Electrocution cases

If you were seriously injured in an accident or lost a loved one from another's carelessness, you may be entitled to be paid for all the harms and losses caused by the other party's actions, such as payment for your medical expenses - past and future, lost income, pain, suffering, and other harms and losses. Insurance companies act in their own self-interest and will minimize your damages to save money. Hiring Nunes Law means there is someone on your side to protect your rights and assist in securing fair compensation — whether through a lawsuit or by negotiating with the insurance companies.

Was It Really an Accident?

At Nunes Law, we sometimes say "accident" because that is the word that comes to mind for many of us when someone is injured. But a car accident, for example, often should not be called an accident, but rather a crash. The word accident implies that nothing could have been done to prevent the injury, death, damage or other harm. If someone was at fault, it was not really an "accident."

Hot Coffee!

"Going to court to gain justice is heroic."

Remember Stella Liebeck, the 79-year-old woman who sued after being burned by McDonald's coffee? You probably heard it was a frivolous lawsuit. You probably didn't hear that she suffered severe burns requiring skin grafts or that McDonald's previously had received 100s of complaints about serious burns from overheated coffee.

Hot Coffee is an HBO documentary that shows how the insurance industry poisons our minds to stop ordinary people from getting their day in court. It will make you think twice when you hear someone complain about "frivolous lawsuits."
