EP302 A Day in the Life of a Personal Injury Attorney, A Conversation with Attorney Lem Garcia
In this interview, Lem Garcia (@lemgarcialaw) a personal injury (PI) attorney based in West Covina, California, discusses his journey in the legal field. He started his practice 10 years ago, initially handling various areas of law, but soon realized that focusing solely on personal injury cases would be the best way to serve his clients.
Lem explains that the majority of his cases involve car accidents, often caused by distracted driving due to cell phone use. He emphasizes the importance of gathering evidence at the scene, such as taking photographs and obtaining witness statements, as well as seeking prompt medical attention to document injuries.
In the conversation Lem touches on the role of insurance companies and the importance of getting legal counsel when dealing with insurance providers and adjusters. To show the human side of why he does PI work, Lem shares an inspiring story about a female client he was able to help. He helped this individual recover compensation for her lost teeth after other law firms turned her away.
Overall, the conversation provides valuable insights into the day-to-day operations of a personal injury law practice ran by a passionate attorney and some strategies used to advocate for injured clients effectively.
