Personal injury law, also known as tort law, allows individuals who have suffered harm due to another’s negligence or intentional act to seek legal remedy for their losses. This area of law is designed to protect victims and hold responsible parties accountable for their actions.
In Long Beach and throughout California, personal injury claims must typically be filed within two years of the date of injury. This statute of limitations makes it crucial to consult with an experienced attorney promptly to preserve your legal rights and ensure proper documentation of your case.
To establish a successful personal injury claim, four essential elements must be proven:

Duty of Care
The other person owed you a duty of care in the situation where the injury occurred.

Breach of Duty
The other person breached that duty of care through action or inaction.

Causation
The breach of duty directly caused the accident or incident.

Damages
You suffered actual damages (physical, emotional, financial) as a result.
A breach of duty of care can be active, passive, unintentional, or deliberate. Defendants in personal injury lawsuits can include negligent property owners, drunk drivers, underqualified doctors, and corrupt manufacturers, just to name a few.

Head & Brain Injuries
Brain injuries can range from mild concussions to severe trauma resulting in permanent cognitive impairment. These injuries often require extensive medical treatment and rehabilitation.

Whiplash & Neck Injuries
Sudden, forceful movements can strain or tear the neck’s soft tissues, leading to chronic pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are crucial to prevent long-term complications and support full recovery.

Broken Bones & Fractures
From simple fractures to compound breaks, bone injuries can be painful and debilitating, requiring surgery, casting, and physical therapy for proper healing.

Spinal Cord Injuries
Damage to the spinal cord can result in partial or complete paralysis, affecting mobility and bodily functions. These catastrophic injuries often lead to lifelong medical needs.

Burn Injuries
Severe burns can cause permanent disfigurement, require skin grafts, and lead to emotional trauma in addition to physical pain and suffering.

Internal Injuries
Damage to internal organs, internal bleeding, and other injuries may not be immediately apparent but can be life-threatening if not promptly diagnosed and treated.
Personal injury accidents can result in a wide range of injuries, from minor to catastrophic. Our attorneys have experience handling cases involving all types of injuries.
- Medical Expenses: Emergency care, hospitalization, surgery, medication, rehabilitation, and future medical needs.
- Lost Income: Wages lost due to inability to work, reduced earning capacity, and future income losses.
- Property Damage: Repair or replacement of damaged property, such as vehicles.

Insurance companies often attempt to minimize payouts by undervaluing both current and future damages. At Murrin Law Firm, we work with medical experts, economists, and life-care planners to accurately calculate the full extent of your losses.
Our comprehensive approach ensures that your settlement or verdict accounts for all damages—both immediate and long-term—providing the financial security you need to focus on recovery.
