Personal Injury
No One Should Have To Suffer From Another’s Failure To Use Reasonable Care.
You or someone close to you has been injured in an accident and life has now taken an unexpected turn. What are your rights? How much can you recover? Does it matter whether you were injured by an individual or private party, a business, or governmental entity? If there is a remedy, how do you go about filing a claim or lawsuit, and are there any procedural hurdles that must be overcome? And what rights do children have when they are harmed by a negligent act or omission of a third party?
The Law Office of George G. Romain is there to answer these and other questions you likely have, and to help you obtain a satisfactory monetary result. We handle most of our personal injury cases on a contingent fee basis, which means that there will be no legal fees for you to pay unless there is a recovery.
Some injuries heal sooner than others, some may linger longer than expected, while others can never be completely undone such as the loss of a loved one. The Law Office of George G. Romain is experienced in identifying potential areas of recovery, including pain and suffering; loss of enjoyment of life or lost companionship; grief; past, present or future lost earnings; diminution in work life expectancy or earning capacity; and many other forms of compensable damages.

- Motor Vehicle Accidents
Serious injuries or death often arise from accidents involving cars, motorcycles and trucks. The rules of the road are often ignored or not carefully followed, resulting in unintended but not entirely unforeseen injuries. In such cases we are there to help you pursue your claim and guide you to proper medical treatment when necessary. - Premise Liability, Including Slip & Fall Accidents
Property owners are expected to maintain their premises reasonably safe so as to avoid causing injury to those who come upon their property. For example, commercial property owners are ordinarily required to inspect their property and repair known or foreseeable hazards on their land. If you have been injured in any way on another’s property, contact to discuss your rights. - Nursing Home Neglect and Abuse
Nursing homes in California are regulated by the Health & Safety Code and other legislative rules and regulations. There is even a Patient’s Bill of Rights that imposes various duties on a nursing home, including the duty to care for patients in a safe setting. When nursing homes breach their duties to their patient and/or their patients’ families, there are a host of damages the law affords including punitive damages and attorneys fees in appropriate cases. Call us if you or a loved one has been neglected by a nursing home or other residential care facility. We are here to listen to you, and to explain what legal options and remedies you may have. - Spinal Cord Injuries
The spinal cord consists of nerves which send signals to your brain and other parts of your body. That is why an injury to the spinal cord can be quite painful and debilitating. In most spinal cord injuries pressure is exerted upon a nerve which produces pain. While conservative forms of treatment can help, from physical therapy to epidural injections, surgery of some form or another is not uncommon. The Law Office of George G. Romain appreciates the complexity of spinal cord injuries. If you do not have you own physician we can consult with our own medical expert consultant to acquire a proper diagnoses of your injury and prognosis for recovery. Call us to set up an appointment and begin your road to recovery. - Brain Injury or Head Trauma

With an injury of this magnitude, you need and attorney who is going to handle your case with care and attention. Attorney George G. Romain is careful in selecting the cases he handles, and gives his personal attention to all legal matters he takes on. Call today for your personal appointment. - Wrongful Death
The law recognizes that the death of child, spouse or parent represents a substantial "injury" to the family for which just compensation should be paid. In that regard, recovery can be had in wrongful death cases for the economic loss and deprivation of society, comfort, care and/or protection afforded by the deceased. Wrongful death cases are inherently complex and require careful analysis of the facts. Please call us to schedule an appointment with an attorney who give your case the attention it deserves.
