Passenger Injury Claims in San Francisco

Seek Legal Representation from Our Experienced Firm

You have been involved in a car accident and you were not driving, you have the right to take legal action and pursue financial compensation for your injuries. As passengers are not held liable for a car crash, the fault lies with drivers involved, potentially including the driver of the vehicle you were in and drivers of other vehicles.

If you were injured as a passenger in a car collision in San Francisco, The Matiasic Firm can evaluate your case, determine all your legal options and recover significant compensation on your behalf. With hundreds of millions recovered for our clients, we understand what it takes to obtain a maximum award for damages to cover medical bills, lost wages, as well as pain and suffering.

Filing a Passenger Injury Claim

Given that one of the drivers is liable for the accident, passengers who suffer injuries in a wreck typically have an easier case to prove. If a collision involves two cars, one of the drivers is going to be held liable. However, if the accident involves one car, the driver could still be to blame as could a hazardous road condition.

A passenger injury claim can be filed against all drivers involved in the crash. If one driver is not obviously at fault, it is important to obtain the insurance information for each motorist and file claims with each driver’s insurer.

Once you have completed medical treatment, you can go ahead and settle your case with the help of an experienced injury attorney. If both drivers could be to blame, you (or your attorney) has to negotiate with the insurance companies of both parties.

Committed to Recovering Your Entitled Compensation

Keep in mind, insurance companies are only looking out for their own best interests in order to protect their bottom line. The initial settlement offer is often the lowest and accepting such an offer means that you won’t be able to seek additional funds if your injuries do not properly heal.

For these reasons, having our San Francisco personal injury attorneys on your side can ensure your rights and best interests are always protected. We are your best resource for fully recovering your losses after a crash injury.

“They are the type of lawyers you want to have on your side, the type you can trust!”

“Paul Matiasic represented me in an accident case where I almost got ripped off by the insurance company. The case took a little longer, but Paul and his team (Justin White) never gave up on me. They called/email every week to make sure I was feeling okay and gave me the status of the case. I felt at ease dealing with them. They are very human and care about their clients more than the money. They are the type of lawyers you want to have on your side, the type you can trust!”

Paul Matiasic is a superb personal injury attorney!

“Paul handled a case for me about eighteen months ago. It took a year to bring the recalcitrant insurance company to the table. Once there Paul was inspiring beyond his years. Strongest negotiator I have ever seen. A real treat to watch him in action. I found Paul to be prompt at returning phone calls, honest, fair and of the highest character. I would recommend him with no reservations.”

We can only say that God was on our side when Paul came into the picture.

“If it were not for Paul stepping to help with our case, we feel that it would not have been resolved as quickly and as efficiently as it was handled. We can only say that God was on our side when Paul came into the picture. Thank you, Paul!”

You can be assured The Matiasic Firm will work as hard for you, too!

“If you find yourself in need of an excellent attorney, I highly recommend The Matiasic Firm. This was a first for me and I will always remember the experience of working with Paul Matiasic and Scott Johnson in pursuing our wrongful death claim. I was turned down several times and then was referred to this firm. After presenting Paul and Scott with the facts as I saw them, they took on my case. The two attorneys as well as their staff was professional and tentative it felt as if I was their only client. We started the case in 2015 and I was advised from day one how difficult it would be but I was kept informed along the way. Any time I had a question or needed clarification Paul or Scott was there. In 2017, a settlement was reached. I just can't say enough of how pleased I was to have been their client. I will recommend Paul Matiasic and Scott Johnson to anyone in need of legal service. You can be assured The Matiasic Firm will work as hard for you, too!”

“Paul Matiasic was amazing and got me a settlement that satisfied me!”

“I found Mr. Matiasic online and he was the only one of three other lawyers who responded wanting more info. The others did not want to persue the case, thinking it hard to prove. Mr. Matiasic was the only one who asked to meet with me personally to discuss the case and it was only with Mr. Matiasic asking questions and explaining to me the what we needed to prove, that I was able to give him the solid information (photos) that resulted in a successful settlement. He worked with and for me from the initial contact in May 2007 until the settlement in Dec 2007, keeping me appraised at every step of the negotiations. I was more than pleased with the result.”
