The Law Offices of John D. Winer specializes in serious personal injury and wrongful death cases including bus accident cases.

Along with litigating these cases, Mr. Winer has authored a special legal article and series of Frequently Asked Questions on the subject of bus accident cases. The article, entitled Basic Principles in Bus Accident Cases, represents a unique effort by Mr. Winer to provide consumers with a detailed description of the law as it applies to such cases.

The law firm has received excellent results in all types of serious personal injury and wrongful death cases. The firm handles a significant number of catastrophic injury, traumatic brain injury and post traumatic stress disorder cases, including bus accident cases. (See our Significant Cases section.)

The law firm handles cases on a contingency fee basis, if there is no recovery, there is no fee. All consultations are free.

The law firm has on full time staff an exceptional forensic nurse, Marilyn Mason, who is able to help the lawyers sort out and litigate complex medical issues. This gives the firm a competitive advantage over almost all personal injury and malpractice firms who do not have anyone on staff with medical training. Ms. Mason is recognized as one of the national leaders in her field of legal nursing and adds a lot to the law firms ability to litigate cases with serious, yet complex medical issues.

Because of Mr. Winer's reputation in the legal community as one of the leading attorneys in California in wrongful death, psychological injury and serious personal injury cases, most of the cases handled by the law firm come from referrals from other personal injury lawyers who do not specialize in handling the very serious personal injury and wrongful death cases in which Mr. Winer has received exceptional results. See Significant Cases page.

Mr. Winer explains "Because we are selective in the cases that we handle, we can give each case the special attention that it deserves. We only accept cases when we believe that the plaintiff will be better off after the litigation than they are before they attempt to seek redress for their injuries. We attempt to not only obtain the best financial result that we can for the client, but also attempt to help people become empowered through the litigation process. Because of our reputation, we are sometimes able to settle cases without extensive litigation and without exposing our clients to the trauma of litigation. If a case does have to be litigated, we pursue it aggressively."
