I would like to thank Eason and Tamborini, especially Rando Rodriguez (my attorney), but most importantly Omar Cardenas (Legal Assistant). They helped me through my workers compensation case. Throughout this journey, Omar was really helpful, always there to answer any question and explained things thoroughly, not only did he explain them in English but most important in Spanish which he is well knowledgeable. They always had an answer for every question. Rando and Omar were there with me since the beginning to the end, they always treated me with respect. I hope no one has to go through a case like this but if they do, I recommend this law firm because they take their cases really seriously. They make their clients feel like they are not alone and treat them as if they are part of their family.Rando y Omar gracias por todo, dios los bendiga.

I had a workers compensation attorney representing me for 15 years that was completely dragging his feet all the way on my three case's so horribly I finally had to dismiss him from my case's because he couldn't seem to settle them after all those year's gone by. I was then fortunate enough to obtain Eason & Tambornini to represent me on my case's and they were able to settle my case's without any problems what so ever. I would and actually already have recommended Eason & Tambornini to family and friends who need good representation. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Eason & Tambornini and the entire law firms team.Sincerely,Daniel F.

I had the pleasure of working with Eason and Tamborini Law for my father’s car accident case, and I can’t recommend them highly enough. Attorney Seth Bradly is not only incredibly knowledgeable but also truly dedicated to his clients. He took the time to explain every step of the legal process to me, ensuring I felt comfortable and informed throughout. His expertise and attention to detail made a challenging situation much easier to navigate. Prior to hiring Seth we had contacted other law firms in the area and felt as if all they truly cared about was their payout. Seth came highly recommended by a friend who was very pleased with her representation and outcome of her case.A special mention goes to Francesca, Seth's assistant, who was always prompt, professional, and genuinely caring. She kept everything organized and was quick to respond to any questions I had, making the whole experience seamless. Francesca was very helpful throughout the entire process and my family and l can’t thank her enough for always being so kind and understanding.If you’re looking for a law firm that combines expertise with exceptional client service, Eason and Tamborini is the way to go.

I have so many good things to say about Eason and Tamborini! I would highly recommend anyone who would want the best representation to contact them! My experience has been amazing from start to finish. I would like to thank Matt, Kristopher, and especially Kristen. Kristen is an amazing person and truly cares about making sure you feel represented and cared for. There was never a time where I felt my questions weren’t being answered in a timely manner and I really cannot thank the legal team enough. It was a long year and some months, but I am more than satisfied with the outcome and truly feel there would not have been better representation for my case. Do yourself a favor and get represented by people who genuinely care about your well being and the outcome of your case! If I could rate them 10 stars I would!!

FAQ: Our Sacramento Pain and Suffering Attorneys Explain what pain and suffering are.

Pain and suffering resulting from a traumatic event are real and can be experienced mentally, emotionally, and physically. Long after medical bills are paid and property has been replaced or repaired, the effects of profound moments of pain and suffering can last a lifetime.

For example, a brain injury with severe cognitive impairment could permanently alter a person’s life; everyday life events that otherwise would have been experienced may be impossible or extremely unlikely. For people living with paralysis, the injuries may be permanent, and the victims experiencing these injuries and their loved ones will be impacted for the rest of their lives.

Victims deserve more than only getting their bills paid. A skilled Sacramento personal injury lawyer can ensure that victims and their loved ones are fully and fairly compensated for their losses.

Damages

When it comes to personal injury law and litigation, a victim or their family may be entitled to receive damages. An experienced lawyer can explain in greater detail that these types of “general damages” refer to both mental and emotional suffering and physical pain. Damages can often be the most significant aspect of personal injury cases monetarily; they are awarded to individuals to cover future pain, suffering, and past damages. These damages include physical pain or other consequences such as stress, grief, and anxiety.

Damages are often awarded in California, but calculating the dollar amount is a different science. Consulting with a seasoned pain and suffering lawyer is vital to securing a full and fair settlement.

The Effect of Pain and Suffering on Mental and Emotional Health

As we talked about before, it’s important to understand that a serious accident can really mess with your mind, maybe even forever.

California does not require a plaintiff to present documented mental health symptoms to receive an award for pain and suffering damages, but it can make a difference. In California, as your legal will explain, your case will be more likely to result in a fair award if a medical professional has diagnosed you. Some common diagnoses include:

Anxiety
Depression
Insomnia
Loss of Consortium
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
Other symptoms of a mental or emotional illness

Loss of Consortium

t’s true that money can help when someone’s life is turned upside down because of an injury. It can pay for medical bills, make up for lost income, and maybe even cover the costs of adjusting to a new way of life. But no amount of money can truly make up for the emotional pain and suffering, the loss of things like love and affection. The good news is that the courts recognize this, and they try their best to compensate for these intangible losses when someone is injured due to someone else’s negligence. In California, a loss of consortium claim may be filed by a spouse or registered domestic partner and is meant to provide compensation for the lack of love, care, and companionship that result from the death or irrevocable injury of their loved one.

The Purpose of Pain and Suffering Damages

The purpose of pain and suffering damages is to help an injured party return to the same or an acceptable quality of life they enjoyed before the injury. Obviously, in the case of catastrophic, permanent injury, this may not be possible. Sometimes, sadly, no treatment or medical care can help. Victims have a right to be compensated for that fact.

However, in most cases, an experienced Sacramento pain and suffering attorney can fight for and secure an award of significant financial compensation for a victim’s injuries because there is no other reasonable way to compensate them for their loss. In general, the more severe the damage and the impact of that damage upon the individual, the higher the potential award for damages.

Common Questions Our Sacramento Pain and Suffering Attorneys May Ask You

When you have a free consultation with one of our lawyers in Sacramento, you may be asked to provide as much information as you can remember about the incident or accident. This includes the basics, such as where, when, how, etc.

Additionally, your legal team will ask for any tangible items you may have, such as contact information of the other party involved, photographs of the accident scene, photos of your injuries, pictures and a list of all property damage, and images of the surrounding vicinity.

FAQ: How does a pain and suffering attorney prove damages?

Hiring a skilled law firm is crucial to the outcome of personal injury cases, and here’s why: Damages must be proven, and compensatory damages are not straightforward.

Obtaining proof that the injured party has pursued treatment for pain and suffering is extremely valuable. Even the most severe injuries and those that seem pretty obvious require evidence of pain and suffering in personal injury litigation. That evidence must be presented accurately and completely. Evidence can be raised and proven in several ways, including testimony by the victim of the intensity or frequency of the pain. An experienced lawyer will also ensure that doctors, family members, or friends testify.

FAQ: How are amounts calculated?

The Civil Code of California, which contains all the statutes that govern the general obligations and rights of persons within the jurisdiction of California, outlines appropriate amounts for pain and suffering damages. It states: “Damages must, in all cases, be reasonable, and where an obligation of any kind appears to create a right to unconscionable and grossly oppressive damages, contrary to substantial justice, no more than reasonable damages can be recovered.”

In simple terms, pain and suffering damages must be reasonable and appropriate. Adding up medical expenses, property damage, and any other costs incurred due to the injury is only the first step. Hiring a skilled and experienced pain and suffering attorney is essential to covering all bases and protecting your best interests.

Sacramento Pain and Suffering Attorneys and Going to Trial

Yet another reason why partnering with a highly experienced pain and suffering attorney is vital is the possibility of going to trial. If that happens, your attorney will prepare your case for trial and familiarize you with the process.

While most pain and suffering cases are settled outside of court, having a confident trial lawyer who understands the importance of being prepared for that possibility is essential. Additionally, being represented by an experienced and well-known pain and suffering attorney in Sacramento, such as those at Eason & Tambornini, may help the insurance company make a better compensation offer.

Statute of Limitations for Cases

In California, there are these things called “statutes of limitations” that set time limits for filing lawsuits after accidents or other mishaps. So, if you get hurt, you better act fast! These deadlines can vary depending on the type of case, so if you’re thinking about taking legal action, it’s best to do it sooner rather than later. Regardless of what type of trauma caused a victim’s pain and suffering, such as a motor vehicle accident, a slip and fall, or other negligent or intentional act by another, you generally must file your lawsuit within the statutory period typically based on the date the injury occurred or was first discovered.

If a government entity was involved, you may need to file a government claim form first, which often must be done within six months! The statute of limitations can be a weakness in many otherwise good cases. If you have been injured, don’t rely on blogs or web pages to calculate the statute of limitations; instead, get a free consultation with an attorney as soon as possible.

A qualified Sacramento pain and suffering attorney at Eason & Tambornini can advise you of your legal options and help you fight to secure the compensation you deserve.

Please call us today at (916) 438-1819 to make an appointment. The consultation is free whether we accept your case, and you will pay NO fees unless we win your case.
