If you were injured in a car accident in Los Angeles, a car accident lawyer at Moe Abdallah Law, P.C. can pursue the at-fault driver and their insurer for your medical bills, lost wages, vehicle damage, and pain and suffering. The consultation is free and you pay nothing unless we win.
If you were hurt in a car accident in Los Angeles, a car accident lawyer can take over the insurance fight and pursue the full value of your injuries while you heal. That is what Moe Abdallah Law, P.C. does. The medical bills stack up, you miss work, and within days an adjuster calls offering far less than your claim is worth. We dig into the crash, gather the evidence, take on the insurers, and stand between you and the pressure so you never face it alone. You pay us nothing unless we win.
Los Angeles has some of the most crowded and dangerous roads in the country. Most of the crashes we handle come down to another driver's carelessness: distracted driving from texting, apps, and navigation; speeding and street racing; unsafe lane changes on the 405, 101, and 110; tailgating in stop-and-go traffic; running red lights and stop signs; drowsy driving; and drunk driving. Each cause leaves behind its own evidence: phone records, event-data-recorder ("black box") downloads, traffic-camera and dashcam footage, and witness statements. Much of it vanishes within days. The sooner we start, the more we can save to prove exactly what happened.
Even a "minor" collision can leave injuries that follow you for years. We handle claims involving whiplash and neck injuries, herniated discs and other back injuries, concussions and traumatic brain injuries, broken bones, shoulder and knee injuries that need surgery, internal injuries, and spinal-cord damage. Insurers often make a quick offer before the full picture is clear: before you finish treatment, before a surgery is scheduled, before anyone grasps the long-term toll. Taking that early money almost always shortchanges you, because once you settle you cannot reopen the claim. We wait until your prognosis is clear, write down every current and future cost, and value the case for what it will really cost you over your lifetime.
Call 911 and get checked out even if you feel "okay." Adrenaline hides injuries, and a gap in treatment is the first thing insurers use to shrink a claim.
Photos of the vehicles, the scene, and your injuries; the other driver's license, insurance, and plate; and the names and numbers of any witnesses. Get the police report number.
Do not give a recorded statement or take any offer before you speak with a lawyer. Anything you say can be used to cut your payout. The consultation is free.
The at-fault driver's insurer is not on your side. Its job is to pay you as little as it can. It will call within days sounding helpful, ask for a recorded statement, request a broad medical authorization, and float a fast, low settlement while you're still hurting. It may claim you were partly at fault, that your injuries were already there, or that you waited too long to treat. We shut those tactics down. We handle every conversation so you never have to, we build the medical and liability evidence into a demand they can't lowball, and we prepare each case as if it will go to trial. That is exactly why insurers take represented clients seriously and pay more.
California gives you two years from the date of the crash to file a personal-injury lawsuit (California Code of Civil Procedure § 335.1), and only six months if a government vehicle or public entity is involved (Gov. Code § 911.2). California also follows pure comparative negligence: you can recover even if you were partly at fault, with your award reduced by your percentage of fault (Li v. Yellow Cab Co.). Insurers exploit both rules, pushing you past deadlines and inflating your share of blame, which is why it pays to talk to a lawyer early.
You work directly with Attorney Moe Abdallah, who takes your case personally, fights the insurance company, and keeps you posted by call and text at every step.
You pay nothing upfront and nothing at all unless we recover for you. The consultation is always free.
We build every case for trial: a thorough investigation, the right experts, and hard negotiation that gets results.
Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee, so our fee comes only from the compensation we recover for you. If we don't win, you owe us nothing. The consultation is always free.
Usually two years from the date of the crash under California Code of Civil Procedure § 335.1. If a government entity is involved, such as a city bus or government vehicle, you may have as little as six months to file a claim. Call as soon as you can so evidence can be saved.
You can still recover. California follows pure comparative negligence, so your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault rather than barred entirely. Insurers overstate your share to pay less, and we push back with evidence.
Almost never. First offers come before your treatment is done and are built to close your claim on the cheap. Once you accept, you cannot reopen it. Let us review any offer for free before you sign anything.
It depends on how bad and how lasting your injuries are, your medical costs and future care, lost income, and how clear liability is. There's no fixed formula, and the best way to find out is a free case review.
Most cases settle without a trial. But we prepare every case as if it will go to court, because insurers pay more when they know your lawyer is ready to try the case.
You may still be covered through your own uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage, and we work with investigators on hit-and-run cases. Call us and we'll walk you through your options.

If it was a minor fender-bender with no injuries, you can often handle it yourself. But if you were hurt, missed work, or the other side blames you, a lawyer usually puts more money in your pocket even after fees, because we know what the case is worth and how to prove it. Not sure which one you have? Call us and we'll tell you straight, free.
No. You are not required to give the other driver's insurer a recorded statement, and it's used to twist your words and shrink your claim. Decline politely and don't answer their questions. Call us first and let us handle the conversation for you.
Usually not, at least not before your treatment is done. Once you accept, you cannot reopen the claim, and a fast offer is almost always less than your injuries are worth. Let us review the offer for free before you sign anything.
Be careful with those. A broad medical authorization lets the insurer dig through your entire medical history looking for a pre-existing condition to blame. Don't sign a blanket form without advice. Send it to us and we'll tell you what's safe to release.
If you weren't at fault, filing a claim or using your uninsured-motorist coverage generally shouldn't raise your rates in California. Rate hikes are tied to your own fault, not to being the victim of someone else's crash. If you're worried about it, ask us and we'll explain how it applies to you.
Yes. Adrenaline masks pain right after a wreck, and injuries like whiplash or a concussion can show up days later. A gap between the crash and treatment is the number one thing insurers use to deny a claim, so get checked out and keep every record. Then call us.
It can be both. You file against the at-fault driver's liability coverage for your injuries and damage. At the same time, your own MedPay can cover early medical bills, and your uninsured/underinsured coverage kicks in if they don't have enough insurance. We sort out which policies apply so nothing gets left on the table.
Yes. California follows pure comparative negligence, so not wearing a seatbelt may reduce your recovery but it doesn't bar it. And it only reduces the part of your injuries the belt would have prevented. Don't assume you have no case. Let us look at the facts.
It depends on your injuries. A simple case can settle in a few months, while a serious-injury case takes longer because we won't settle before your prognosis is clear. Rushing to close often means leaving money behind. We keep you posted at every step so you always know where things stand.
Be cautious with that. Injuries often surface days later, and cash on the spot rarely covers real medical costs and lost wages. Once you take it, you lose your leverage and may have no record of the crash. Talk to us before you agree to anything.
