From Injury to Resolution, We Walk With You

Fighting for Our Clients in Their Time of Need

*The case results portrayed in this website were dependent on the facts of each specific case and the results will differ if based upon different facts.

What Kind of Accident Were You In?

In Fact, We Handle All Types of Injury Cases

Uber, Lyft, and Liability: What Happens When Your Ride Goes Wrong?

With the rise of Uber and Lyft, rideshare accidents have become increasingly common. However, determining liability in these cases can be more complicated than with regular car accidents. That’s why it’s crucial to act quickly and gather evidence.

When the Unexpected Happens: Navigating Life After a Car Accident

Car accidents can happen in an instant. As a result, victims are often left dealing with injuries, vehicle damage, and overwhelming stress. Whether you were hit by another driver or involved in a multi-car pileup, it’s important to understand your rights.

Big Rigs, Big Risks: What to Know After a Truck Accident

Truck accidents often result in severe injuries due to the sheer size and weight of commercial vehicles. Because of this, victims may face long recovery periods and high medical bills. Additionally, trucking companies often have legal teams ready to protect their interests.

Bicycle Accidents Happen Fast: Here’s How to Respond

Bicyclists are vulnerable on the road, even when following traffic laws. In fact, many bicycle accidents happen due to distracted or negligent drivers. If you’ve been injured in a bike crash, you may be entitled to compensation. More importantly, acting quickly can help preserve critical evidence.

Motorcycle Accidents: Protecting Your Rights After the Crash

Motorcycle accidents can be especially dangerous due to the lack of physical protection for riders. As a result, injuries are often severe—even in low-speed crashes. In many cases, motorcyclists are unfairly blamed, despite being the more vulnerable party on the road.

Injured in a Bus Accident? Understanding Fault and Compensation

Bus accidents can involve multiple victims and complex liability issues. Whether you were a passenger, pedestrian, or another driver, figuring out who’s responsible is key. In some cases, government entities may be involved, which means different deadlines and procedures. Consequently, quick legal action is essential.

Pedestrian Accidents: What To Do if You've Been Hit

Pedestrians have little to no protection in collisions, making these accidents especially dangerous. Unfortunately, many drivers fail to yield or pay attention in crosswalks and urban areas. As such, pedestrian accident claims often require thorough investigation.

Dog Bites: When Man’s Best Friend Turns Dangerous

Dog bites can cause serious physical and emotional trauma. Even if the animal seemed friendly, victims are often left with medical bills, scarring, and fear. That’s why it’s important to understand your rights and what steps to take if you’ve been attacked.

Premises Liability: Injured on Someone Else’s Property?

Property owners have a duty to keep their spaces safe. Whether you slipped on a wet floor or were injured by unsafe conditions, you may be entitled to compensation. In many cases, proving liability starts with quick documentation and legal guidance.

Catastrophic Injury: Life-Altering Injuries Deserve Serious Legal Help

Catastrophic injuries—such as brain trauma or spinal damage—can affect every part of your life. As a result, victims often face long-term care, lost income, and permanent disability. Therefore, pursuing fair compensation is not just important—it’s necessary.

Wrongful Death: When Loss Could Have Been Prevented

Losing a loved one is devastating—especially when their death was caused by someone else’s negligence. In these moments, a wrongful death claim may provide the financial support and accountability a family deserves. Moreover, it can be a step toward closure.

Mesothelioma
from Asbestos?
You’re Not Alone.

Exposure to asbestos can lead to mesothelioma and other life-threatening illnesses. Often, these conditions take years to appear, making legal claims complex. Nonetheless, if you or a loved one were exposed at work or home, there are legal options available.

No Two Cases Are Ever the Same

Accidents and injuries happen in unique and unexpected ways

At Cohn & Swartzon Injury Attorneys, we handle a wide range of personal injury claims, from car accidents and slip-and-fall incidents to catastrophic injuries and wrongful death cases. While we highlight many common types of injury cases on our site, your situation may involve different circumstances.

Frequently Asked Questions for Our Santa Ana Personal Injury Lawyers

Clear Guidance From a Team That Puts You First

Whether you need help understanding your legal options, want to know what to expect, or simply don’t want to face this alone, we’re here to provide honest guidance. Cohn & Swartzon is committed to helping you make the right choice — with no pressure, no upfront cost, and no guesswork about your rights.

🧑‍⚖️ Understanding Personal Injury Law in California

  • How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in California?

    The statute of limitations for most California personal injury claims is two years from the date of the accident or injury. If you miss this deadline, you may lose your right to seek compensation. Therefore, it’s important to speak with a personal injury attorney as soon as possible to protect your claim.

  • Can I still get compensation if I was partially at fault?

    Yes. Under California’s comparative fault laws, you may still receive compensation even if you were partially responsible for the accident. However, your total recovery may be reduced by your percentage of fault — but you’re not automatically disqualified. Let Cohn & Swartzon Injury Attorneys assess your case and fight for a fair outcome.

  • How long does a personal injury case take?

    Depending on the case, some personal injury claims settle in just a few months, while others may take over a year. This often depends on factors such as injury severity, ongoing medical treatment, and the complexity of insurance negotiations. Throughout the process, Cohn & Swartzon keeps you informed and works efficiently to secure the compensation you need — all without sacrificing results.

💼 Hiring a Lawyer: What to Expect

  • How much does it cost to hire a personal injury attorney in California?

    At Cohn & Swartzon Injury Attorneys, there are no upfront costs to hire us. In fact, we work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you don’t pay anything unless we win your case. As a result, injured individuals can seek justice without the added stress of legal fees. Additionally, your initial consultation is always free, giving you a risk-free opportunity to learn more about your options.

  • Do I need a lawyer if the insurance company already offered me a settlement?

    Before accepting any settlement, it’s always a good idea to speak with a personal injury attorney. In many cases, insurance companies offer low initial payouts that fail to reflect the full extent of your medical bills, lost income, or long-term needs. By speaking with an attorney early, you protect yourself from signing away your rights for far less than you deserve.

    At Cohn & Swartzon, we take the time to review your settlement offer, explain your legal options, and determine whether it truly meets your needs. If it doesn’t, we’re ready to negotiate on your behalf and pursue a stronger result — all at no upfront cost to you.

  • When does an attorney-client relationship officially begin?

    While our offices are based in Santa Ana and Tulare, we proudly assist injury victims across the entire state of California. Thanks to modern technology, we’re able to handle consultations, case updates, and document reviews remotely — making it easy for you to get legal help no matter where you’re located.

    An attorney-client relationship is formally established when both you and the law firm sign a written fee agreement. This agreement outlines the scope of representation, the terms of payment, and the responsibilities of both parties. Until that agreement is signed, preliminary conversations or consultations do not necessarily create a binding legal relationship.

    At Cohn & Swartzon, we take this process seriously to ensure clarity, transparency, and trust. Once the fee agreement is signed, you officially become our client—and we begin working on your behalf to protect your rights and pursue the compensation you deserve.

  • Can I switch lawyers if I’m not happy with my current personal injury attorney?

    Yes, you can. In California, you have the legal right to change attorneys at any point during your case if you’re not satisfied with the representation. Whether it’s due to poor communication, lack of progress, or a change in trust, you are not locked in permanently.

    At Cohn & Swartzon, we often assist clients who have transitioned from other firms. Once we review your case file, we handle the legal logistics of switching representation, ensuring a smooth handoff so your claim stays on track — and your rights stay protected.

Additionally, if you have further questions or want to discuss your situation in detail, contact us directly for a free case evaluation.
