Legal Question in Personal Injury in California

Obtain your medical treatment. When you have a total, then send a copy of the bill to the apartment owner and ask that you be compensated for your medical expenses, lost wages (if any), and pain and suffering. Give them a reasonable figure. If that doesn't work, then you'll have to file a small claims lawsuit if under $7,500.

Since you have no medical insurance, the only way to obtain proper medical care (other than by paying cash) is to get the doctors to treat you on a lien basis. A "lien" is a document whereby you agree to pay the doctors out of any recovery you make from your personal injury case.

The problem is, no doctor will sign a lien if there is no attorney certifying that the case has merit. In other words, the first thing you need is to have an attorney agree to represent you. For that, you need a full case evaluation. Fortunately, personal injury attorneys do not charge any fee for these initial case evaluations, and if one takes the case, the fee won't be charged until you make a recovery.
