The M&Y Difference
All law firms are not the same.
After a serious accident, the firm you choose can change everything — how your case is investigated, how aggressively the insurance company is pushed, and how much you actually recover. Hiring a personal injury lawyer is not a small decision. Here is why so many injured Californians choose M&Y Personal Injury Lawyers over the national chains and the firm down the block.
The firm has been a pillar of the community ever since its founding, recovering over $1 billion for injured clients and championing the cause of accident victims in California.
Built for California — and Only California
This is the biggest difference between us and the giant national personal injury firms: we don’t try to be everywhere. We are a California firm, built for Californians.
That focus matters more than it might sound. California’s personal injury laws are different from Texas or Florida or New York — we follow pure comparative negligence, our statute of limitations and government-claim deadlines work differently, our rideshare insurance rules just changed under SB 371, and our case values play out differently in front of California juries. A firm that handles claims in all 50 states cannot match the depth of knowledge of a firm that lives, works, and tries cases in this one.
We have 12 offices across California — in Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Oakland, Anaheim, Riverside, Sacramento, Fresno, Long Beach, Van Nuys, San Bernardino, and San Jose — which means we know the local courts, the local insurance defense firms, the local roads where these crashes happen, and the local juries who decide them. When a national firm files a case in California, they often have to bring in local counsel. We are that local counsel — for ourselves and for our clients.
Hablamos Español. Por Eso Importa.
Roughly half of Los Angeles County identifies as Hispanic or Latino, and a significant share of the people we serve are more comfortable telling the story of what happened in Spanish than in English. Our team includes bilingual attorneys and staff — not as an afterthought, but as a core part of how we practice.
That changes the case from day one. When you can explain your pain, your fears, and the details of the accident in the language you actually think in, your lawyer gets the full story. Adjusters and defense lawyers are notorious for pouncing on small inconsistencies that come from translating on the fly — we don’t put our clients in that position. We meet you where you are, in the language you speak best, from the first call through trial.
Over $800 Million Recovered
Our track record speaks for itself. We have recovered more than $1 billion in settlements and verdicts for injured Californians and their families — covering car accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle and rideshare crashes, brain and catastrophic injuries, and wrongful death. Big numbers don’t help every client, but they tell you one thing that matters: the insurance carriers know who we are, and they know we will not accept a lowball offer just to make a case go away.
100+ Years of Combined Experience
Since 2013, M&Y has been built around a simple idea — that injured people deserve a firm that goes the distance. Our attorneys bring more than 100 years of combined experience handling California personal injury cases. That experience shows up in places clients can see (smarter case strategy, sharper cross-examinations, faster results) and in places they can’t (knowing which adjuster at which carrier responds to what kind of pressure).
Knowing the Other Side
Insurance companies and corporate defendants run a playbook, and we have spent years studying it. We know the tactics adjusters use to minimize claims — the “friendly” first call, the recorded statement designed to trip you up, the rushed lowball offer before you have seen a specialist, the surveillance and social-media digging, the defense doctors paid to say you weren’t really hurt. We see those moves coming, and we have the playbook for every one of them.
No Recovery, No Fee — Period
Hiring a top personal injury firm should not depend on your bank account. We work on a contingency-fee basis, which means you pay nothing up front and nothing at all unless we recover compensation for you. No retainer. No hourly billing. No surprise invoices.
That fee structure also aligns us with you. We only get paid when you do, so we are every bit as motivated as you are to fight for the full value of your case — not to settle quickly for whatever the insurance company offers first.
Available 24/7 — In Whatever Way Works for You
Accidents don’t happen on a 9-to-5 schedule, and our line is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Call, text, fill out a form online — whichever is easiest. Starting a claim with M&Y takes a few minutes from anywhere in California. You don’t have to drive to an office. You don’t have to take time off work. We come to you.
Frequently Asked Questions
We are California-focused, not 50-state. We have bilingual attorneys and staff. We’ve recovered over $1 billion for California clients, and our 12 offices mean local knowledge of the courts, insurers, and roads where your case will actually be decided. The national firms are big — we are deep, and we are right here.
Nothing up front. We work on a contingency-fee basis, which means we only get paid if we recover compensation for you. If we don’t win, you owe us nothing — no fees, no hidden costs. Our fee is a percentage of the final recovery, and we discuss it in plain English before we start.
We handle the full range of California personal injury cases, including car accidents, truck and 18-wheeler crashes, motorcycle accidents, Uber and Lyft rideshare accidents, pedestrian and bicycle injuries, traumatic brain injuries, catastrophic injuries, premises liability and slip-and-fall, and wrongful death. If you’re unsure whether your situation qualifies, the consultation is free — just call.
We have 12 offices throughout California: Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Oakland, Anaheim, Riverside, Sacramento, Fresno, Long Beach, Van Nuys, San Bernardino, and San Jose. Wherever you are in the state, there’s an M&Y attorney nearby — and if it’s easier, we come to you.
Yes. Our team includes bilingual attorneys and staff. You can speak with us in Spanish from the very first call, and we’ll handle your case in the language you’re most comfortable with. Hablamos Español, 24/7. Llame al 866-864-5477.
Generally, two years from the date of injury under California Code of Civil Procedure § 335.1. Shorter deadlines apply if a government entity is involved (often as little as six months) and for minors the clock is paused until they turn 18. These deadlines are strict, so the sooner you talk to a lawyer, the better.
We evaluate a few key factors: is there clear liability, how serious are the injuries, what is the realistic potential for compensation, and can we add real value to the case? Our consultation is free, and even if we can’t take your case, we’ll point you in the right direction.
One Mission: Maximum Compensation for Injured Californians
Whether you were hit by a distracted driver on the 405, struck by a delivery truck near the Port of LA, or lost a loved one in a preventable crash — you deserve a firm that will not stop short of full recovery. That is what we do, and it is the only thing we do. If we don’t win, you don’t pay. That is the M&Y promise.
