INSIDER EXPERIENCE MOST LAW FIRMS CAN’T MATCH
Not Every Injury Lawyer Knows How Insurers Think. John Does.
Most injury lawyers know how to file a claim. John knows how insurance companies try to defeat one. With 40+ years of experience and rare insider insurance-defense knowledge, John understands how insurers evaluate injuries, minimize losses, and pressure victims before they know the true value of their case. For catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases, that insight can make the difference between a quick low offer and a fight for full, fair compensation.

A California wrongful death case may involve compensation for funeral expenses, burial costs, loss of financial support, loss of household services, loss of love, loss of companionship, loss of comfort, loss of care, and loss of guidance. We help families throughout California protect their rights after a preventable death caused by negligence, recklessness, unsafe property, or corporate misconduct.
Motorcycle Accidents
Workplace / Third-Party Injury Claims
Workplace / Third-Party Injury Claims
Motorcyclists often suffer devastating injuries because they have little protection against cars, trucks, and roadway hazards. The JVB Law Firm represents riders injured in California motorcycle accidents, including lane-splitting crashes, left-turn collisions, freeway motorcycle accidents, intersection crashes, hit-and-run motorcycle accidents, distracted driver crashes, unsafe lane-change collisions, dooring accidents, and motorcycle wrongful death cases.
Insurance companies often try to blame the rider. We know those tactics. We fight unfair claims that motorcyclists were speeding, reckless, unsafe, or responsible for their own injuries. We help injured riders pursue compensation for fractures, road rash, traumatic brain injuries, spinal injuries, orthopedic injuries, surgery, lost income, pain and suffering, and permanent disability.
Workplace / Third-Party Injury Claims
Workplace / Third-Party Injury Claims
Workplace / Third-Party Injury Claims
A workplace injury may involve more than workers’ compensation. The JVB Law Firm helps injured workers investigate third-party injury claims against negligent drivers, contractors, subcontractors, property owners, equipment manufacturers, delivery companies, trucking companies, maintenance companies, and other responsible parties.
We handle California workplace injury cases, including construction accidents, trench collapses, falls from heights, forklift accidents, warehouse injuries, delivery driver crashes, jobsite vehicle accidents, defective equipment injuries, industrial accidents, burn injuries, electrical injuries, and catastrophic work injuries. If someone other than your employer contributed to the accident, you may have a separate claim for pain and suffering, full wage loss, future medical care, and other damages not fully available through workers’ compensation.
