One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesWestmorland is a small place — roughly 2,267 residents in Imperial County — and most of its daily business happens along a handful of blocks near W Main Street, 6th Street and 8th Street. A fall there is rarely dramatic in the moment. Someone slips on a wet entry at a market, catches a heel on broken pavement outside a shop, or misses a step in a poorly lit stairwell, and the pain arrives later. California law gives you a path forward when that happens, but it puts a burden on you: showing the property owner knew about the hazard, or reasonably should have, and did nothing to fix it or warn you. That is why what you do in the first days matters so much. Photographs of the spot, the names of anyone who saw you fall, and a prompt request that the business keep its surveillance footage can carry a case in a town where witnesses are few. We review these claims at no cost, and our team works on contingency.
California asks you to show the owner knew, or should have known, about the hazard. We know how to build that proof through inspection logs, maintenance records, and witness accounts.
Surveillance video is often overwritten within days, and a spill is mopped up within minutes. Our quick response means a preservation letter can go out before that footage is gone.

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
Most California premises claims carry a two-year filing deadline, but claims against a city or county entity must be started far sooner. And because the state uses pure comparative fault, being partly to blame reduces a recovery rather than erasing it — we can walk you through what that means for your situation.
