$13.3 Million Verdict for Oceanside Law Firm

Tuesday, January 19th, 2010


Harris Personal Injury Lawyers Obtains an 8-Figure Verdict

January 19, 2010 (Oceanside, California): Ryan Harris of San Diego law firm Harris Personal Injury Lawyers, and his co-counsel Robert Hamparyan, were recently awarded a $13.3 million dollar jury verdict in an auto accident case.

Mr. Harris’ client, who was just 19 years old at the time of the accident, was struck head-on by a negligent driver on a two lane rural highway in Farmersville, California. The collision, which occurred in October 2007, resulted in severe injuries to the client.

The insurance company for the negligent driver denied any responsibility for causing the car accident because the driver had been rear-ended by another vehicle before colliding with Mr. Harris’ client. As a result, the insurance company refused to offer any money to settle the case.

During his investigation of the case, Mr. Harris obtained the black box data recorder from the driver’s Chevy Silverado. The data recorder demonstrated the negligent driver had been braking aggressively just before the accident. This was a key piece of evidence the jury relied upon in awarding a verdict in the Plaintiff’s favor.

The case was tried in the California Superior Court in Visalia, California. The trial lasted 6 weeks, with 3 days of jury deliberation. The jury reached its verdict on December 23, 2009, awarding Mr. Harris’s client a verdict of 13.3 million dollars. When asked about the case Mr. Harris responded, “representing this client has forever changed my life, and if there ever was a young lady who needed to be taken care of through our civil justice system it is her”.

Injured in an Auto Accident? Why You Need an Attorney

Wednesday, April 1st, 2009

San Diego, CA It is common for people to question why they would benefit from legal representation when they have insurance. There are many reasons to retain an attorney. If you are injured in an auto accident, you will want to make sure your interests (not the insurance company’s) are protected, and that you are fully compensated for your damages. An attorney will ensure your medical bills and lost earnings are paid, and that you obtain the proper medical treatment to ensure your injuries do not become chronic in nature.

The Law Office of Ryan Harris is dedicated to protecting the rights of injured persons and their families in the San Diego and Orange County regions. We are here to assist you through all areas of your personal injury case. We understand individuals cannot always prepare for the unexpected; however, we encourage you to take some simple measures to help ensure your interests are protected if an auto accident should occur.

If you are involved in an auto accident, it is important to gather necessary information. The information you need is set forth on our Auto Accident Form which you can download from the right hand side of our website. When a traumatic event happens it is easy for anyone to become overwhelmed, forget to ask the right questions, and obtain much needed information. Please carry the Auto Accident Form in the glove compartment of each of your automobiles. It will serve as your guide in gathering all of the pertinent information you will need to ensure your interests are protected.

In addition to completing your auto accident form it is also wise to place a call to your insurance carrier to initiate a claim. Your auto insurance carrier will begin the claim process and process the necessary forms required by the DMV.

When you are represented by Harris Personal Injury Lawyers you will be assured that your interests, not the insurance company’s, are protected. While you focus on obtaining appropriate medical treatment and recovering from your injuries, our office will handle all of the phone calls, letters, and demands of the insurance companies. We will ensure you are properly cared for, not only by your medical doctors, but most importantly by the insurance company. All personal injury cases are taken on a contingency fee basis, which means no fees or costs are owed unless we win your case.

In addition to auto accident cases, Harris Personal Injury Lawyers also handles Animal Bite Injuries as well as Slip and Fall cases.
