Law Office of Arnold Hernandez
Welcome to my website. You are
probably here, because you have a legal problem and need legal help. Look
at this website as a starting point, but do not rely on this information
as the law is subject to change, set up an appointment and consult with
an attorney first before making any major decision. I practice law in California and do not offer legal
representation in any other state. The majority of our work is
plaintiffs’ work and we work mostly on a contingency basis, meaning
attorney fees are not due until we win at trial or obtain a favorable
result for you. We represent
plaintiffs in unpaid overtime wage claims and personal injury claims arising
from truck accidents, car accidents, dog bites, and also families in
wrongful death claims.
To discuss your specific
situation or case email me or call my office. If
you email me keep in mind that no attorney client privilege is formed by
sending an Email, so be sure you do not disclose sensitive information. We offer legal representation
throughout Southern California, most of our cases are in North San Diego
County, but we have represented
clients in the counties of San Diego, Orange, Riverside
and Imperial. We have represented
clients from many different cities including the Cities of San Marcos,

OCEANSIDE, CALIFORNIA PERSONAL INJURY AFTER A DOG BITE
Dog bites and dog attacks
can cause not only physical pain, but can also adversely affect a
person’s life for many years to come. Injuries from dog bites give rise to a
legal right for a personal injury in most situations. Click Here For Information About California Dog Bite
Laws Some individuals
are not able to regain their confidence and have the constant fear of a dog
bite, whenever they are in a setting where there are dogs. Children are frequently the victims of
dog bites and the dog attack usually occurs at the home of a friend or
family member. Click Here For Statistical Information on Dog Bites These dog bites to children are often
to the face leaving scars that can last their entire childhood. Even though the number of deaths
resulting from dog bites or dog attacks is small the number of dog bites
is very high. The number of
personal injury claims for dog bites is relatively small in comparison to
the number of victims for dog bites and dog attacks. The chance of death from a dog bite or
dog attack is very slim, but the chance of a dog bite is extremely high
and is the number two reason for emergency room visits among
children. The following is a
typical case:
In 2001 a teenage girl went
to her friend’s home, outside the house was the grandmother who
invited the girl to enter the home and go upstairs to find her
friend. She had no reason to
believe she would be the victim of a dog bite or dog attack. When she entered the house two small
dogs attacked the girl. The dog bites were to her ankle, her forearm and
her leg. The first dog bite was to
her ankle and as she reached down to push the dog away the second dog
jumped biting her forearm. She
fell to the ground and screamed as these dogs attacked. The friend and the dog owner came in
after hearing the victim’s screams and pulled the dogs away, but
only after she suffered repeated dog bites to her ankles, forearm and
leg. Following the dog attack the
dog owner called her parents and informed them the girl had been the
victim of a dog attack. The victims
parent were upset to see the girl
with her arms and shirt covered in blood and the dog owner had not sought
medical treatment for the girl following the dog attack. After visiting the doctor the
victim’s family asked the dog owner about paying for the damage
caused by the dog bites to their daughter’s legs and arm. The dog bites resulted in deep wounds,
but fortunately the dog bites did not cause any nerve damage. The hospital bill for treating the dog
bite wounds exceeded $2,000. The
dog owner declined to pay for the medical expenses resulting from the dog
bite injuries and informed the parents that if they were to obtain a
personal injury lawyer that they would obtain one too and fight the
matter. Months after the dog
attack, the teenage girl still had scars from the deep dog bite wounds,
but fortunately there was not permanent damage other than scars to her
forearm from the dog bites. About
one year after the dog attack a cosmetic surgeon could do a scar
evaluation and estimate the cost for surgery to minimize or eliminate the
scars to her arm. Soon after that
the matter resolved and the settlement provided compensation not only for
her pain and suffering, but also for her disfigurement and would permit her
to obtain cosmetic surgery to remove the dog bite scars.

SAN
MARCOS, CALIFORNIA
PERSONAL INJURY AFTER CAR ACCIDENT
Following a hit run
case a woman called my San
Marcos office looking for a car accident
lawyer. We investigated the case
and found the case to have merit, but believed the claim to be too
small. We accepted the car
accident claim, but could not resolve it informally. A trial was set and after all the
evidence was presented we obtained a favorable verdict. The value of the lawyer's time invested
in the case was approximately $20,000.00.
After deducting the time and costs, the jury verdict resulted in a
loss to the lawyer and the client, but our client followed our advice and
we were in agreement that it was the best course of action. It was a risk worth taking, because an
informal settlement would have still resulted in a loss to the attorney
and the client and the defendant was worse off because of the significant
expense incurred in attorney fees.

VISTA, CALIFORNIA PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM AFTER A CAR
ACCIDENT
A woman was traveling in
the back seat of a vehicle. It was
raining and the road was slippery.
The driver saw a car accident and slowed down. The driver behind them was a young
woman distracted by her conversations on her cell phone did not see the
car accident and could not stop in time to avoid causing another very
serious high speed car accident.
Both vehicles were damaged beyond repair. The woman in the back seat suffered a
herniated disc, which was not diagnosed for several months. Often injury victims have to tolerate
extreme pain from a herniated disc following a car accident. Once the injury was identified she was
scheduled for surgery for the herniated disc and the case resolved
quickly.
