Catastrophic Injury Lawyer
Expert representation for life-changing injuries in Los Angeles
Why Catastrophic Injury Victims Can't Afford to Hire the Wrong Lawyer
If you've suffered a catastrophic injury in Los Angeles, your choice of lawyer will impact the next 10-50 years of your life. Catastrophic injuries require long-term medical treatment and rehabilitation—and not every injury lawyer can build a case at this level.
This is where boutique representation matters. Just recently, Peerali Law received a call from a client and explained a common situation:
How Peerali Law Secured 4x A Client's Original Offer
In the case mentioned above, the client's original attorney got a $74,000 offer from the liable party's insurer. But Kristopher Peerali took on the case and won a $300,000 settlement within three weeks. This was possible through qualifying the injuries as "catastrophic" and detail the full extent of damages—including future medical bills, loss of earning capacity and emotional suffering.

Peerali Law: Our Catastrophic Injury Case Results
From Legal Loophole to Multi-Six-Figure Settlement
Peerali Law secured a $968,000 confidential settlement for a Lodi resident injured in a medical transport collision, resulting in severe arm fractures and lasting loss of sensation. The defense argued that compensation should be capped at just $250,000 because the injury occurred during medical transport, but through extensive case development and evidence work, we proved that the cap didn't apply. After detailing the client's emotional suffering, we recovered the maximum policy limits from both the employer's insurance and the driver's personal policy.
This is one example of how proper classification and strategic litigation can multiply case value.

What Counts as a Catastrophic Injury?
Not every serious injury is "catastrophic." Under California law, the term refers to injuries severe enough change the course of a person's life – medically, financially, and emotionally. These are the cases involving long-term treatment and often permanent impairment.
At Peerali Law, we classify an injury as catastrophic when it results in one or more of the following:
Permanent loss of function
Mobility, sensation, cognition, or use of a limb
Serious neurological damage
Including traumatic brain injury (TBI)
Spinal cord trauma
Leading to paralysis or long-term impairment
Severe fractures
Orthopedic damage requiring rehabilitation
Disfigurement or burns
Injuries requiring repeated surgeries
Inability to work
Prevents return to previous work or lifestyle
These cases require a deeper level of legal strategy than standard personal injury claims. The attorney must not only prove liability, but also quantify the entire future impact of the injury.
This is the work our firm is built for.
If you believe your injury may fall into this category, we can review your case for free and tell you exactly where you stand.

Transparent Fee Structure
At Peerali Law, we operate on a no-win, no-fee model. This means you pay nothing upfront, and you owe us nothing unless we win your case.
Industry Standard
Across the United States, contingency fees for personal injury cases generally range from 33%–40%, and may increase if a case goes to trial. Some firms also add extra fees or charge back expenses to the client — often without making this clear at the start of representation.

We don't believe in hidden costs. Peerali Law provides transparent, written fee agreements so you know exactly what to expect. Many of our clients appreciate that we honor the terms of our contracts — with no surprise charges later.
No Hidden Costs. No Surprises.
Every client receives a clear, written fee agreement before we begin. We honor our commitments and believe in building trust through transparency. Your financial peace of mind matters to us.
"I am very happy with the settlement results… Peerali Law firm also did not charge me extra money as agreed upon in the retainer contract. They honored to stay at their minimum fee which meant a lot to me."
