Who we are

Personal injury attorney Matthew de Lira gets exceptional results for the injured, bringing his unique perspective and relentless advocacy to every case.

Protecting Your Rights after Suffering an Injury

When you suffer a personal injury due to someone else’s negligence, you find yourself in a vulnerable position. You not only have to cope with the physical and mental effects of the injury, but you also have to navigate the complex world of insurance claims and legal options. Insurance companies, with their adjustors trained to minimize settlements, often undervalue your claim.

They may ask questions that could harm your legal claim. Luckily, Matthew de Lira is skilled at negotiating with insurance companies because he has firsthand experience representing them. He understands the ins and outs of deceptive insurance tactics and won’t fall for any funny business. He knows what offers are worth accepting and when it’s better to push your case to trial to get the most money out of your claim.

Experience Handling Negotiations

Having a skilled California personal injury attorney like Matthew de Lira APC by your side means you’ll have access to an experienced negotiator. Negotiations are arguably the most essential part of the legal process, as most personal injury cases settle before trial.

A settlement can happen before and during a lawsuit. If the settlement occurs before the legal action is filed, you waive your right to bring legal action in exchange for a monetary award for the negligent party or their insurance carrier. Even if you’ve already started the legal process or are just days away from trial, settlement is always a valid option to resolve legal disputes.

Your Trusted Guide Through the Legal Process

If pre-litigation settlement talks fall through, Matthew de Lira will file a legal action on your behalf to get the legal process started. Often, settlement amounts will increase after the legal process begins because the insurance carriers have to shell out more money to defend against your claim and know that you mean business. Starting a legal action is an excellent strategy to increase the value of your claim, especially since Matthew De Lira will take your case on a contingency fee basis. This means you won’t pay a time until Matthew secures the settlement, judgment, or verdict you deserve.
