2 Get You Healthy

Immediately start treating with all the medical providers necessary to get you healthy again

3 Address Your Property Damage Need

Immediately address your property damage needs. This means to either get your car fixed as soon as possible or if your car is totaled, obtain the fair market value for your car. During the process, we will work on immediately obtaining a rental car for you while your car is being fixed or while we are obtaining a total loss check for your car.

4 Investigate

If necessary, any and all investigation to be done on your matter will be commenced immediately including, but not limited to, obtaining video footage surveillance of the incident, securing any witness statements, and collecting any other tangible evidence to support your case.

5 Collect All of the Patient Evidence

After you are finished treating with all of the necessary medical providers you need, we will begin the process of collecting all of the pertinent evidence of your case (i.e. medical records and bills, loss of earnings documents, etc.)

6 Draft a Settlement Demand Letter

Once all of the needed evidence is collected for your case, we will begin to draft a settlement demand letter. Your demand letter is a summary of your case, which will detail all the facts of the incident, the acts of negligence committed by the defendants, the property damage you incurred, your loss of earnings, your loss of future loss of earning capacity, your injuries, your medical treatment, the medical bills you incurred, any future medical treatment you may need, any future medical bills you may incur, the general damages (i.e. pain and suffering, emotional distress, interference with daily life activities, etc.).

7 Negotiating With the Insurance Companies

Once your demand letter has been reviewed by the appropriate insurance companies, we will begin negotiating with the insurance companies’ adjusters to obtain the absolute maximum offer possible from them.

8 Settlement Release

Once you agree to the settlement, the insurance company will draft a Settlement Release which will be forwarded to you for your signature.

9 Settlement Check

Once we send back the signed Settlement Release to the appropriate insurance companies, they will issue and send to our office your Settlement Check, which we will promptly deposited in the J&Y Law Client Trust Account.

10 Settling Medical Liens

Our office will then begin the process of negotiating all the medical liens on your case, including any liens with Medicare or Medi-Cal. We will settle your liens for the lowest amounts possible to ensure that we obtain for you the absolute highest net settlement.

11 Settlement Distribution

After all liens have been satisfied, a Settlement Distribution sheet will be presented to you which will outline all the payments that are to be made from your settlement including all payees. Once this is reviewed and signed by you, this officially closes out your case.
