OUR SPECIALTY
At Lofranco Chagpar Corriero we have restricted our practice to specialize in personal injuries resulting from motor vehicle accidents. Personal Injury law provides a host of claims and benefits for innocent victims who have sustained personal injuries and impairments. We have acted for innocent victims who have sustained catastrophic injuries, such as, paraplegia, quadriplegia, amputations, fractures, brain injuries as well as soft tissue injuries. We have successfully negotiated out of court settlements for millions of dollars as well as trying cases that have resulted in huge jury awards.
The law provides that if the accident is not your fault you can claim (1) damages (money) for pain and suffering and loss of enjoyment of life, (2) any lost income on future economic losses, (3) home maintenance and housekeeping expenses, (4) pre-judgment interest against the at-fault Insurance Company.
Over and above your claims against the at-fault Insurance Company you can also claim accident benefits, from your own Insurance Company which includes, money for (1) income replacement, (2) caregiving expenses, (3) housekeeping and home maintenance expenses for two years following the accident, (4) for non-earner benefits (not employed at the time of the accident), (5) up to $100,000.00 for medical and rehabilitation expenses (up to One Million if catastrophically injured), (6) up to $72,000.00 for attendant care expenses (up to one million if catastrophically injured). It should be noted that an injured person can claim accident benefits even if the accident was their fault. Other benefits include visitor expenses, repair or replacement of damaged eyeglasses or clothing in the accident.
