The City of Moorpark is less than an hour northwest of Los Angles on State Highway 23 in Ventura. County. It’s primarily a residential community with a population somewhere around 36,000. Most residents who work commute to other cities in the area. The FBI rated Moorpark as one of the nation’s safest cities, but given its proximity to Los Angeles, Moorpark residents are accustomed to reading about or seeing the aftermath of just about any type of accident that you can think of. Of course, the severity of the injuries suffered in these accidents is a factor in how difficult it will be for victims and their families to get their lives back in order again. The Moorpark personal injury law firm of Quirk Accident & Injury Attorneys, APC has been of invaluable assistance in helping people do exactly that.

Don’t Help the Other Side Set Up its Defense Against You
The insurance company on the other side of your accident knows that it’s looking at a loss, so it’s going to do whatever it can do to try and devalue or even deny your claim for injuries. Expect it to start trying to do that before you can even contact us. If there’s a phone call or knock on your door from a representative of the opposing insurer, don’t give it any information at all about your accident. Anything that you say might be used against you for purposes of building that insurer’s case against you. Don’t feel threatened or intimidated by anything that might be said. Politely refuse to give any information, and then, call our Moorpark personal injury lawyers to arrange for a free personalized consultation and case review.
We can talk about what caused your accident and injuries and how both you and your family have been affected. You’ll have questions too, and we’ll be pleased to answer them. After that, we’ll advise you on all of your options in obtaining compensation for your injuries and damages. Our objective would be to obtain the highest amount of compensation that you’re entitled to.
