We have helped numerous injured accident victims battle against insurance companies, so that they can obtain the compensation that they deserve. As you can imagine, the insurance companies are not always pleased to pay out claims to accident victims, especially when an accident victim has been seriously injured and the damages begin to reach large numbers. You have the right to seek fair compensation for the damages you have incurred as the result of another person’s negligence or carelessness. These damages can include medical expenses, pain and suffering, time off of work, and damages for your family members. At Duque Law, we aggressively take on all types of personal injury cases, including car accidents, motorcycle accidents, bicycle accidents, construction accidents, tractor trailer accidents, workplace injuries, and wrongful death cases. Your initial consultation is absolutely free and you do not pay any legal fees until we obtain a financial recovery for you.

LOS ANGELES COUNTY WRONGFUL DEATH
Pursuing a wrongful death action after losing a loved one can be very difficult, but it may be the only way to obtain justice for another person’s negligence.

LOS ANGELES COUNTY MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENTS
At the law offices of Brent A. Duque, we are aware of the general negative attitude toward bikers. We also know that this stereotype is often unwarranted and unfair. As Los Angeles County motorcycle accident attorneys, we know that just because an accident victim was riding a motorcycle, he or she is not necessarily at fault.
LOS ANGELES COUNTY TRUCKING ACCIDENTS
A commercial truck or big rig easily weighs over 75,000 pounds, especially when full. These trucks, by their sheer weight and size, can be extraordinarily difficult to manage and maneuver, creating somewhat of a hazard for those sharing the road with them and all too often leading to catastrophic injuries.

Dog bites are common, especially against small children. According to the American Humane Association (2014), over 4.5 million Americans are bitten by dogs every year, and more than half of those are children.
LOS ANGELES COUNTY PREMISES LIABILITY
The legal theory of premises liability is a concept defining how property owners and residents are responsible for accidents and injuries that happen on their property.

LOS ANGELES COUNTY CONSTRUCTION ACCIDENTS
Los Angeles County is rife with expansion and construction projects, meaning that accidents can happen daily.

LOS ANGELES COUNTY BURN INJURY

LOS ANGELES COUNTY ELDER ABUSE AND NEGLECT

LOS ANGELES COUNTY BRAIN INJURIES
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) results when the head suffers a violent hit or even a sudden jolt. Since the brain is actually floating in cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) inside the skull, it is vulnerable to extreme collisions within the skull itself, such as those that occur in automobile accidents (whiplash). Have you been involved in a whiplash injury?
