Why Choosing the Right Rear-End Car Accident Lawyer Matters
If you’ve been injured in a rear-end car accident in Los Angeles, your choice of lawyer will greatly impact your future. Rear-end collisions may seem straightforward, but the insurance companies and other parties involved will often dispute the liability or try to downplay the severity of your injuries. This is where specialized representation matters.
Just recently, Peerali Law received a call from a client facing a common situation:
- You sustain injuries in an automobile accident
- You get medical treatment
- You receive a call from an insurance company representative
- You’re offered a payment to “help with medical costs”
- You’re asked to sign documents to approve the payment
If you sign such a document, you may be signing away your right to any further compensation. Even if your future medical bills far outweigh that initial offer.
CASE STUDY
How Peerali Law Secured 4x A Client’s Original Offer
In one recent multi-vehicle crash case, a client called Peerali Law in a tricky situation. Their attorney got a rapid $74,000 offer from the at-fault party’s insurer. The client was under pressure to accept quickly. But our Co-Founding Partner Kristopher Peerali took over the case and brought in expert medical witnesses to assess the long-term impact of the injuries. Their analysis showed that the future costs of treatment, rehabilitation, and the effect on the client’s earning capacity far exceeded the initial offer.
Within just three weeks, Peerali Law secured a $300,000 settlement—roughly four times the original offer.

$900k Settlement for Client Severely Injured in a Rear-End Collision
Peerali Law secured a $900,000 settlement for a client who was severely injured in a rear-end collision. The client sustained serious neck and back injuries, requiring extensive medical treatment and rehabilitation.

This is one example of how proper classification and strategic litigation can multiply case value. Additional proven personal injury results include:
- $16.3M settlement for premises liability catastrophic injury
- $5.2M settlement for car accident injury with hospitalization
- $4M settlement for wrongful death caused by product liability
- $968k settlement for sensational loss after accident in transport vehicle

What Counts as a Rear-End Car Accident Injury?
Not every injury sustained in a rear-end collision is catastrophic. However, certain injuries can have long-term, life-changing effects. At Peerali Law, we classify a rear-end car accident injury as catastrophic when it results in one or more of the following:
- Severe whiplash or neck injuries
- Spinal cord damage causing paralysis
- Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
- Loss of limb or amputations
- Chronic pain or disability
- Ongoing medical treatment or rehabilitation
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.
If you believe your injury may fall into this category, we can review your case for free and tell you exactly where you stand.
How Much Are the Legal Fees?
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.
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. As one client shared in a five-star review:
“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.” — L.F. (Yelp Review)
