Corona Personal Injury Lawyer
Corona Personal Injury Attorney
A “personal injury” is any incident in which one party’s actions cause measurable harm to another party. Personal injuries can occur because of negligence or a failure to exercise reasonable care and caution in a given situation, and others happen because of intentional misconduct and criminal acts. If you believe any party bears fault for an injury you recently sustained, a Corona personal injury attorney can help you hold them accountable for your damages.
At Easton & Easton, our team of experienced personal injury attorneys provides client-focused legal representation to residents of Corona, CA and the surrounding communities of Southern California. We know the challenges any personal injury can present to the victim and their family, and we know how distressing it can be to face extraordinary economic losses caused by another party’s actions.
If you or a loved one are recovering from an injury someone else caused, we can help you take full advantage of your options for legal recourse and seek accountability from the defendant. California’s personal injury laws are robust, enabling plaintiffs to seek compensation for many types of losses. However, you will require the assistance of an experienced Corona personal injury attorney to maximize the outcome of your personal injury case.
Benefits of Hiring a Corona Personal Injury Lawyer
Attempting to manage your own civil suit after suffering a personal injury may seem like a good idea for avoiding attorneys’ fees, but you put yourself at a tremendous legal disadvantage if you try to file a personal injury claim without an attorney representing you. If you miss a court filing deadline, forget to submit crucial documentation, or make any other procedural mistakes with your case, you could jeopardize your ability to recover compensation.
Hiring an experienced Corona personal injury attorney to manage your case significantly improves your chances of success with the claim, and you are also more likely to maximize your compensation. Instead of trying to manage your legal affairs and recovery from your injury simultaneously, an experienced Corona personal injury attorney can help you ascertain your best legal options in this situation and help you recover more fully than you originally expected. You can focus on your recovery with peace of mind knowing your personal injury claim is in reliable hands.
Common Types of Personal Injury Claims We Handle
Personal injuries arise from many situations. It’s vital to choose a Corona personal injury attorney to represent you who has solid experience handling cases like yours. Easton & Easton has decades of professional experience representing Corona, CA area clients in many types of personal injury cases, including:
- Car accident claims. Car crashes are a leading cause of accidental injuries in the U.S. and generate a tremendous number of civil claims. If an at-fault driver’s insurance can’t cover your losses, an experienced Corona personal injury attorney can help you seek their accountability.
- Truck accidents. Any accident involving a commercial truck is likely to cause worse damages than an accident involving standard passenger vehicles. These cases can also raise complex questions concerning liability, and more than one party could be responsible for your damages from a truck accident in Corona.
- Premises liability. If you suffered a slip and fall or any other type of injury on another party’s property, the property owner could be liable for a personal injury under California’s premises liability laws.
- Interpersonal violence. If you suffered a personal injury from another party’s intentional act of violence against you, they face criminal prosecution for their actions in addition to liability for your civil damages.
- Catastrophic injury claims. Some personal injury claims pertain to long-term or permanent harm caused by a defendant. If you suffered a traumatic brain injury, spinal injury, or any other catastrophic personal injury, our team is equipped to help you recover from your damages as fully as state law allows.
Our team helps clients assess their best legal strategies, calculate the full scope of damages they can seek from the defendants in their claims, and guides every client through their case proceedings with responsive and compassionate legal counsel.
For more than 25 years, attorney Douglas Easton has earned Martindale-Hubbell’s highest AV Preeminent* peer review rating for ethical standards and legal ability.
Compensation for a Personal Injury Claim in Corona, CA
Easton & Easton strives to help every client we represent recover from their damages as fully as California law allows. State law enables the plaintiff in a personal injury case to seek compensation for all economic losses the defendant caused.
Most plaintiffs can claim compensation for the medical expenses they incurred from their personal injuries as well as compensation for lost wages if they were forced to miss work. However, a plaintiff’s compensation may include long-term damages if they suffered a serious injury. The defendant in your claim may not only be liable for immediate medical treatment costs and lost income after the injury they caused but also your long-term medical expenses and lost future earning capacity.
You have the right to hold the defendant accountable for the property losses you sustained because of their actions as well. For example, if the defendant damaged your home, business, or vehicle, you could hold them accountable for repair or replacement costs. Alongside these economic damages, plaintiffs may also claim compensation for their pain and suffering.
It can seem difficult to assign your pain and suffering a monetary value, and there is no limit to the amount you can seek in most personal injury claims in California. Your attorney can help you decide on a reasonable figure to include in your claim by assessing how serious your injuries are and whether you face long-term complications because of them.
What to Expect From Your Corona Personal Injury Attorney
When you choose Easton & Easton to represent you in a personal injury claim, you have responsive legal counsel ready to address any concerns you may have as your case unfolds. While you recover from your injury and focus on your personal and professional responsibilities, your legal team can build your personal injury claim. We seek physical evidence, witness statements, and expert witness testimony if necessary to support our clients’ claims.
Many personal injury claims end in settlement. Once a defendant’s liability is clear, it typically suits their interests to settle the matter as efficiently as possible. However, if a defendant denies liability, the case may need to unfold through litigation, and this can take much longer to resolve. Whatever your case entails, Easton & Easton can help you address the obstacles between you and your recovery.
Personal Injury Claim FAQs
Q: How Much Does It Cost to Hire a Corona Personal Injury Lawyer?
A: Easton & Easton understands that you are probably concerned about the potential cost of hiring legal representation for your personal injury claim. We make our legal services accessible to clients who need them most by providing a contingency fee agreement to every personal injury client. This means you are not obligated to pay any upfront legal fees and only owe a fee once we win your case. The contingency fee is only a percentage of the client’s case award, ensuring suitable recovery from their damages.
Q: How Long Will My Personal Injury Case Take to Conclude?
A: Some personal injury plaintiffs can secure settlements relatively swiftly when they have reliable legal counsel and compelling proof of liability for their injuries. Other plaintiffs may face more protracted legal proceedings, sometimes taking months to reach conclusions to their cases. A good Corona personal injury attorney can provide you with an estimate of how long your case will take to reach a conclusion.
Q: How Do I Know If I Have Grounds for a Personal Injury Claim?
A: Every personal injury case revolves around an act of negligence, a failure to act with reasonable care, or an act of intentional misconduct that harms another party. If you are unsure whether you have grounds for a civil action in response to your recent injury, or if you are not sure who is at fault for the injury, it’s best to consult an experienced Corona personal injury attorney as soon as possible.
Q: How Much Is My Personal Injury Claim Worth?
A: California’s personal injury laws allow the plaintiff to seek full repayment of all economic losses the defendant caused. They can also seek compensation for long-term damages and their pain and suffering. Many personal injury clients do not know the true values of their claims until they secure legal counsel from experienced attorneys. Easton & Easton can uncover every available channel of compensation that may help your recovery.
Q: Is It Worth Hiring a Corona Personal Injury Attorney?
A: You might think the cost of legal representation would be too much in light of your damages, but Easton &Easton’s contingency fee policy means you pay nothing unless we win your case. Since your legal fee is a percentage of your final case award, you are sure to obtain a suitable recovery even after accounting for your legal fees as long as you choose the right legal team to handle your case.

Retaining Easton and Easton was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! From the initial consultation to our final meeting, they were nothing short of exceptional. I was forced to retain their services after firing my previous attorney for not handling the case properly. I dealt with Gabriel and Brian (partner) exclusively throughout the case. They did as promised and were great communicators throughout the entire process. I will recommend them to anyone I know going through a personal injury case. They were ultimately able to untangle the mess caused by my previous lawyer and get a result that I was extremely happy with. Their staff is exceptional as well and provided top notch customer service. Amera was also extremely helpful and easy to deal with as well.
I was in a pretty bad car accident and decided to have Easton & Easton represent me, Travis Easton to be specific. Travis Easton and his paralegal made the whole process effortless. They were so understanding and helpful! The entire thing was a gigantic mess, yet Travis managed to make it run like clockwork. I would HIGHLY recommend Easton & Easton! If you are ever in need of a personal defense attorney Easton & Easton is the firm to represent you!
