As a motorcycle accident and a personal injury attorney, I run across people all the time who just want to pick my brain for information thinking that they will try to handle their personal injury or motorcycle accident case without an attorney. I always think to myself, “what an idiot.”

First off, I can pretty much tell when somebody wants to retain an attorney as opposed to when someone just wants to pick my brain for information.

Let’s say you need an appendectomy or knee surgery; would you try to do the surgery on yourself? Of course not. What makes you think you can handle a complex motorcycle accident case, or a personal injury case on your own? We attorneys are Juris Doctors, who have gone to Law School for 3 to 4 year, then passed the hardest Bar exam in the nation and then specialize in different areas of the law just like medical doctors specializing in different areas of medicine. Attorneys who specialize in personal injury and let’s a motorcycle accident cases are different from attorneys who specialize in real estate.

Personal injury law is a highly complex area of the law which is not something that you can just willy-nilly do a Google search on and figure out without a high degree of education and training. The insurance company will never take you seriously, and when you approach them without an attorney,  they will know they have a sucker on the hook when you call them without an attorney.

Everything you say can and will be used against you in your case. You can completely blow your case and not even know it by talking to the insurance company on your own.

In almost every instance you will get more money with a personal injury attorney than trying to handle a case on your own. Don’t be a fool, get a lawyer on your personal injury, motorcycle accident case, or other injury case.

California Personal Injury Attorney and Lawyer Norman Gregory Fernandez

As all you Californians know, we have had a series of bad storms over the past week. Now this is nothing new to Northern Californians, but Southern Californians are definitely not used to the rain and snow.

There have literally been hundreds of car, truck and other motor vehicle accidents over the past week all over the State of California. Everybody is blaming the bad weather, but in 99% of all cases, the fault is on drivers who were not being careful while driving in the bad weather.

Everyone needs to be careful out there on the roads. I flew in to Los Angeles International Airport last night from San Francisco. Although it was not raining in Los Angeles, the traffic was horrible because of the rain earlier in the day. There were still your ubiquitous assholes on the road, not letting people switch lanes, tailgating, driving recklessly, you name it.

To protect yourself against the bad drivers you need to make sure that you have uninsured motorist coverage and under insured motorist coverage in a decent amount to protect yourself against these bad drivers with bad insurance.

If you are hit, the first thing you need to do is make sure you get a police report, go to the emergency room if you need it, and call me for a free consultation on your car, truck, or any other motor vehicle accident, anywhere in California, at 800-816-1529 x. 1. As all of my clients all over the State of California know; I am an attorney that cares about my clients. I will do what I can to take care of you.
