Our Personal Injury Practice

At Hooton and Chen, we understand there are few things more frustrating than being injured in a motor vehicle accident due to no fault of your own.

When all you want is to get your life back on track, you may soon be faced with a myriad of unexpected issues when trying to exercise your legal rights. The at-fault driver and his/her insurer may try to dispute liability for the accident. The at-fault driver may not have car insurance or not enough of it to cover your loss. You may have to rely on your personal injury protection (PIP) insurance to cover your medical bills but find it difficult to get bills paid. If your injury is significant, your PIP benefits may run out quickly, leaving you stressed about mounting medical bills. You may be left with substantial loss of income, loss of future earning capacity, pain and suffering, emotional distress and loss of enjoyment of life as a result of the accident, but only receive a “lowball” settlement offer from the insurance company. You may ultimately have to file a lawsuit to protect your legal rights, but there is a limited time period (called statute of limitations) in which a lawsuit must be filed; you may not be aware that this time limit is running out.

Our attorneys will help you navigate through the claim process and maximize the chances of a favorable recovery. We are knowledgeable about how insurance companies operate. Attorney Bin Chen is a former auto liability claims adjuster. We will make sure you are treated fairly and see that you receive just compensation for your injuries.
