No Fees Until YOU Win

I spoke with Ian ( lead attorney ) this morning about a possible case. Although my case wasn’t strong, he literally took an hour to discuss and give law based facts as to how a case works and why my case would be a challenge. Ian is a true gentleman and has an approach that is unmatched! If you have a possible case do yourself a favor and reach out to him… it will be the most honest answer you can get during a tough situation. Good Luck with your journey!!

I got rear-ended in the In-N-Out drive thru. It wasn’t a very high speed accident. But by the time I got home I could barely stand up. My back has been a little fragile ever since the military and the impact of that minor accident did a number on me.

The damage to my car was only $500 (tough Jeep bumper). Luckily, I knew not to trust the insurance company and that they would use the minor damage to screw me over.

I called Sam & Ash on a weekend and was immediately guided what to do and taken care of.

Not only would I have got a worse result (and probably not recovered fully), but it would have been so much MORE DIFFICULT if I did it on my own. Instead, they handled literally everything except going to my appointments. When the chiro stopped giving me progress, they helped me find a physical therapist. My result? I’m pretty close to 100% recovered and they put close to 10k in my pocket (even after medical bills). Incredible. I don’t think I could have got a few hundred in my pocket on my own.

Sam & Ash Injury Law is one of the best law firms I worked with. I highly recommend them to anyone that needs help and support with their case. The caseworkers are nice and they care. Kayla called and checked on me and sent me flowers when my grandmother passed away as I was still working through the difficulties of my injury. Please give them a call and check them out. Best experience

Ian McTaggart, managing partner of Sam & Ash LLP, is an excellent lawyer. I was very satisfied with his knowledge, professionalism and candor. Plus, he quickly returned my phone calls, was easily available and gave me expert advice on a rather tricky case. I highly recommend Ian, and Sam & Ash LLP, to anyone in Southern California seeking personal injury representation.

We’re Here To Help

After a serious accident, you shouldn’t have to deal with the financial burden alone — especially if someone else is to blame. Medical bills, lost income, and the long road to recovery can quickly become overwhelming.

That’s why it’s important to have a skilled brain injury lawyer on your side. We’ll work quickly to secure evidence, identify who is responsible, and make sure you’re getting the care you need and the full compensation you deserve.

Filing A Claim For A Brain Injury

If you’ve suffered a traumatic brain injury in California, you typically have two years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury claim. If a government agency is involved, you must file an administrative claim within six months. Missing these deadlines could mean losing your right to compensation.

Brain injuries are complex and often life-altering. At Sam & Ash Injury Law, we work closely with your medical providers to understand how your injury affects your health, daily life, and future. You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, ongoing care, lost income, reduced earning capacity, pain and suffering, and emotional distress. We’ll build a strong case and fight for the support you need to move forward.

Brain Injury Symptoms And Treatment

Brain injuries can be difficult to diagnose and may involve a wide range of physical, cognitive, and behavioral symptoms — such as dizziness, memory loss, headaches, mental fog, difficulty communicating, seizures, blurred vision, hearing issues, and mood or behavior changes.

Treatment often includes medication to reduce swelling and prevent seizures, surgery for serious trauma like bleeding or skull fractures, and rehabilitation to restore lost skills. Because the brain is so complex, recovery may focus on managing symptoms while the body heals — but in some cases, the damage may be permanent.

What To Do After

After a brain injury in California, take these steps to help protect your case for compensation:

Responders will secure the area, control the situation, and prepare an official report, ensuring proper documentation for any necessary follow-up.

Take photo and video of the scene. Store reports, important items, and any records securely so nothing useful to your case is lost or misplaced.

A prompt exam can uncover unseen injuries and create important documentation for your claim

Attend all follow-up appointments, complete recommended treatments, and participate in any necessary therapies.

If the incident occurred in public, notify nearby people, business owners, or file an incident report.

Do not wait to get the legal advice you need. We can start investigating the accident, preserving evidence, and protecting you from day one.

Record detailed notes about how the accident occurred and track symptoms, treatments, and recollections related to your recovery process.

Refrain from posting about your incident—anything posted online could impact your claim.
